Guys: It's not working

Guys might say something douchey like "Well, if I was your man, you wouldn't be out here by yourself," or, "If he really cared about you he'd be here with you." So you're telling me that if you were my boyfriend that you'd be possessive and controlling and wouldn't let me go out by myself?
Or maybe he'll say, "Well, your boyfriend's not here, so who cares?" Give it a break, these unwanted opinions that are based on absolutely nothing just make you look like a jerk. I've never heard of a girl saying, "You know what, you're right, my boyfriend does suck. I should just be with you, a random stranger who knows nothing about me."
Last week was the worst; a guy who didn't even know my name proceeded to tell me his philosophy of how girls with boyfriends should still give out their number, or at least why I should have given him mine. He told me that it's "society" that tells me I can't give him my number. And I followed with, "No, it's me saying that I won't give you my number." He added that I "might as well be handcuffed and in prison" because I have a boyfriend and won't give out my number. So, although I was out at the bar with friends talking to this tool, he's saying that I'm like a prisoner? From my perspective, I was doing whatever it was that I wanted to do.
Then he tried to convince me that the only reason he was even asking in the first place is so that we could be friends (mind you, he still doesn't even know my name) and if I did give him my number that he could call me and invite both me and my boyfriend somewhere. Is this guy really that delusional, or does he just think that I'm that stupid and that I will buy into this?
Regardless, it needs to stop. Guys, if a girl says that she has a boyfriend, be polite and move on; these annoying comments are just a waste of both your time. And who knows, if you're cool she might try and hook you up with her friend.
