So a guy asked me to dance and while me and him were dancing, his friend kept coming over and patting him on the back. What does this mean?

That used to be the sign that a guy wanted to "cut in" and dance with you. Yes, it was called "cutting in". He might even tap the guy you're dancing with on the shoulder to get his attention and say "May I cut in?" I've seen it in movies in which elegantly dressed people were dancing at dinner clubs or upscale parties.

Could be that he was congratulating him or encouraging him. He may have known that his friend liked you or wanted to dance with you, and he was happy for him or trying to boost his confidence. He may have also been teasing him or joking with him in a friendly way. Just a sign that his friend is supportive and playful.
