From my experience people who generally do that are giving a message that they don’t like you back. If I talk about a guy I like to another male it generally means I wouldn’t want to date the guy I’m talking to.
I think this is very on point.
I have learned that if I don't want to interact with guys, I just take the first opportunity to mention my boyfriend, and they'll be out of my hair soon.
Or maybe he's just inconsiderate. That has happened to me too, when I was talking to someone that I know like me, about someone else that I like. I felt really bad afterwards when I realized I might have hurt their feelings by talking about the other person. I just didn't get it at the time.
