Texts from ex-bf's (no matter how beta) having effect on woman you're seeing

Noticed this really hasn't been addressed on the forum.
It's very possible to be on a date, or even out with a woman you've been seeing and she gets a text from an ex, and you can tell it has an effect on her. It can range from either feigned or true annoyance, to actually making her want to call him at that very moment. Either way, it's powerful to her, and she's not indifferent to it the way she would be to a true orbiter. Usually they'll text something along the lines of missing her and it won't be alpha in the slightest. Reason being, after enough time has passed, an overtly alpha text is more likely to be ignored since frame has been lost.
I typically will smile, use some "jerkboy charisma" (as coined by Roissy) and say "you must be that irresistible/that smile has broken a million hearts" and possibly a quick wink.
Do you have a preferred way of addressing this?
