The acceptable way is to stay within reason. For example, she has no control over men initiating conversation. But she does have control of her responses. If she gives open ended responses, a guy looking to get closer to her will use that to continue the interaction. I'll give you an example; I was out with a group. A girl and I were the first ones there. So I chatted her up. I thought she was interesting and pretty. So naturally I spoke to her with the intent to possibly ask her out one on one. She was very nice, pleasant and all that. But didn't answer in a way that allowed me to ask more personal questions. Later on, I found out she had a boyfriend. She was never rude or cold or any of that, but she also didn't leave the door open so to speak for me to push further. I have no hard feelings. She didn't have to be mean and her bf, if he ever found out about the interaction wouldn't have reason to believe she disrespected their relationship. Admittedly, an extraordinarily attractive women would have to do that much more often and I can understand why it would be tiresome. But the concept is the same, if the girl values her relationship, she should be considerate of her partner's feelings. Same as the man in a relationship.

Romantic feelings, or sexual?

Since men tend to be the chasers in courting or relationships, it would be very likely that a male ex would have ulterior motives for staying within the radius of a woman who's now taken by someone else. I would add that women are much better at discerning motives and body language than men are, so women will know the difference between platonic male friendship and a man wanting something more. Her responding to her male ex, or even a male friend she knows wants something more with her is disrespectful to her current relationship. And worse still, if she denies knowledge her orbiter wants more than friendship. The proper thing for her to do is not associate with men who have romantic feelings towards her while she is taken.
