She was dancing with her best friend and i spent a lot of time at the bar talking with her dad ( he came , he's good fun) and i could see guys approaching them and trying it on etc, but then i could see Lou obviously ignore them. Some guys are so obvious, like she was kissing me and then as soon as i went to the bar, some creep was trying to take her hand, even though she had told him i was her boyfriend. She said to me last night that she loved how i wasn't so over the top as her ex boyfriend would apparently come up to any guy that approached her and punch him, and he wouldn't let her dance with her friends and she said " i love how you trust me and you know i can handle myself with guys trying it on"Now don't get me wrong, i'm not oblivious - i could still see and check she was ok from the corner of my eye, but i knew she can handle it. Obviously if a guy did get serious and grab her or something then i would step in, but from what i'm doing, is this good?

 She likes the way you are handling things and that is all that should matter. Relax and enjoy yourself.

 It would appear so. When you're both happy and the person whose opinion matters most tells you you're doing the right thing by her, then you must indeed be doing the right thing.
Most women don't like the boorish, over the top approach. We don't like unnecessary drama and we certainly don't like having to walk on egg shells or worry about our partners going all Rambo on what is supposed to be a fun night out.
Yes, it sounds like you're doing the right thing.
