On Girl Code and Stalking

Song Prompt Wednesday!

"The bitch went nuts.
She photoshopped my face
Onto every boy who'd done her wrong
And then she burned them telepathically
To the brains of all her embittered drones"- Ben Folds, The Bitch Went Nuts.

Girl code is complicated.

If your friend comes to you with a complaint about a boyfriend/husband/dude she dated twice. It is your job as her friend to sympathize.

Even if you don't agree.

That doesn't mean you have to lie exactly, but your obligation is sympathy.

Say you have a friend who stalked Robert Patterson (a la Twilight). You don't like Twilight. You think vampires are silly. But your poor friend is obsessed. She recently was sent a cease and desist letter from Mr. Patterson after sending him a collection of her toe nails as tokens of her undying love.

She complains to you about the injustice of not being able to stalk the love of her existence.

Since you have no ties to Mr. Patterson, your job is to agree that Robert Patterson is an a-hole.

And perhaps suggest a new obsession, like knitting.

Warning, song not safe for work. :P Also includes the c-word if that offends you.
