First and foremost, a wingman is selfless. He doesn't care what the girl's friend looks like, he knows what his job is. His job is to keep the girl's friend away from the girl so that his friend can get the job done. It sounds confusing, but if you read it properly, you'll understand. If the girl is tremendous, disfigured, a midget or 85 years old, it doesn't matter. A good wingman will talk to her the entire night because he knows that the objective is not about him. It's about his boy.
Next, a wingman accepts his role. A good wingman will never try and move in on the girl his friend is trying to mack it to. It's just not the right thing to do. The wingman should accept his role and embrace it. The favor will always be returned at a later date, and he knows that going in. You accept your role and stick to the game plan. It's the wingman way.
Finally, a wingman is brave. You need to be brave to be a wingman since most of the time you're trying to tackle a beached whale or fend off the female version of Sloth from the goonies. But you have to understand that logical people will know that you are performing the role of the wingman and even if you get so drunk that you end up locking lips with the beast you will be forgiven. It comes with the territory.
There you have it. The three qualities of every good wingman are selflessness, accepting his role, and bravery. If you posses these qualities, then you are in fact a good wingman. And as I said earlier, you should always remember that you will be rewarded for being a good friend. It always happens.
