Hi,

Just got back from a girly minibreak abroad- and everyone has come back pissed off with one another over one of our ex-boyfriends. I will give my friends new names, Emma, Amy and Ruby.

Yesterday night, we were talking about ex-boyfriends. Ruby is in a happy relationship new with a nice guy, but has had a string of idiots before- the last one which she is particularly sore about due to him leading her on a treat for the best part of a year. Let's call him Ben.

So me, Emma, Amy and Ruby are sitting down in a nice restaurant, and Ben comes up in conversation. Ruby is quick to change the subject- but Emma jumps in with this gem which apparently happened the day before we flew out; Emma works in the same office as one of Ben's friends, albeit a different department- they don't really know each other. Anyway that afternoon at the watercooler, Ben's dickhead friend says something along the lines of this; 'Oh, you're Ruby's friend? My mate Ben had her! Apparently she's got a really weird vag, have you seen it?'

Me and Amy are absolutely mortified and Ruby is extremely distraught for two reasons- she was never 'had' by this guy as she refused to unless she was officially his 'girlfriend', so the fact that he's going round implying that he's slept with her to random people (him and office dickhead aren't really that close, did the same course at college or something) and also she has a complex about her 'downstairs' which we've tried and tried again to convince her that it's nothing near embarrassing bodies standard (I think you can guess what Ben seemed to think was weird about it ;[)

Emma is insistent that she's done nothing wrong as 'she would want to be told' and 'we are on holiday, but it's the last night so nothing has been ruined' and 'it was probably best to do it now because we can all support her and bitch about him. Oh and Amy seems to think there's nothing wrong with it too as we're all 'so close'. Ruby was upset, not sobbing the place down- but certainly watery eyes and being off with us all evening, and when she got back to the hotel she was texting Ben demanding what he's been saying about her. She also is planning to book in to get her labia amputated (well, that's EXACTLY what it is, call it labiaplasty or whatever you want).

I've gave Emma a call and told her it wasn't on, but she told me to give it a rest as Amy thinks I'm taking it too far and Ruby wasn't that upset anyway (?). I seriously don't want her to get away with it, because I think it was vile just announcing that out at the table and putting Ruby in that horrible position :(

Is she BU?

Sorry for all the new names, (it's like a little story!) but it's easier than going 'he/she/her friend/her boyfriend/our friend/hairdresser's cousins' friend)

Dreadfully mean, she enjoyed that, strangle her...

StetsonsAreCool · 01/03/2012 23:20

I don't think I understood a word of that Confused Smile

Ummm....

Are you the bunch of friends off the advert that talk about constipation?

LeBOF · 01/03/2012 23:21

Emma is a massive bitch. That is what I got from that.

AnyFucker · 01/03/2012 23:21

That's not a bad'un

IAmRubyLennox · 01/03/2012 23:22

"Emma" is an arch-bitch.

BrianCoxHasScaryHair · 01/03/2012 23:22

erm, I think......no, wait, erm.......

nope

What?

Confused
snice · 01/03/2012 23:23

or the ones who run around the flat looking for the secret that turns out to be Perle du Lait yoghurts?

LilacWaltz · 01/03/2012 23:23

Dear me!!

sleeplessinsuburbia · 01/03/2012 23:24

I would want to know if an ex was saying that. I wouldn't be angry at the messenger but maybe I'm older and more confident, id just call him a dick and expect you to do the same...

blackoutthesun · 01/03/2012 23:24

'it's like a little story!'

erm... yeah it is isn't it

AnyFucker · 01/03/2012 23:25

how does she do it ?

Perle du Lait, of course....

GreenEyesAndHam · 01/03/2012 23:25

Wow Emma's a right wanker isn't she? Has she always been such a wanker?

I think she has self esteem issues myself

Me and my friends are out having a meal.
Friend A is a happy new relationship after months of being lead on.
Conversation turns to ex-boyfriends.
Friend B blurts out that she bumped into a pal of Friend A's prick Ex.
This 'pal' made comments about her having a 'weird vag' and implied that she had sex with his friend (she didn't)
Friend A is distraught and wants to have plastic surgery.
I am unimpressed with Friend B's lack of tact and vile way of sharing this information.

That clear? It's not really funny. My friend Ruby has spent about an hour crying to NHS direct today and her new boyfriend is concerned.

Emma is a wanker.

Moominsarescary · 01/03/2012 23:27

What chaos said

Also you have all seen your friends fange? How does that come up in conversation

"hey girls, just take a look at this for me"

IAmRubyLennox · 01/03/2012 23:27

Is Ruby prettier than Emma?
Is Amy a bit scared of Emma?

(I would quite like a 'Jackie'-style photo-story to accompany this)

BrianCoxHasScaryHair · 01/03/2012 23:27

ok, I have had too much wine (today is my Friday - so it's ok, hic)

I will come back tomorrow, with sober eyes, and offer advice.

G'night all.

LucyLastik · 01/03/2012 23:30

Are you all 15?

Pandemoniaa · 01/03/2012 23:30

I second the need for a Jackie-style photo story. I don't mind if the illustrator er, draws a veil over the massive minge, mind.

poissonchat · 01/03/2012 23:38

You are a horrible lot tonight. I'm a lurker, but occasionally you do get some good answers from people Hmm

My not-15 year old friend and her 'massive minge' (thanks for that, really lovely of you) seem to think that the entire town thinks she is deformed. I've known her for years and she has always been worried about it, 'weird vag' may sound like a 'funny' comment but when you have 20 years of self esteem and trust issues- it's really horrible to hear in front of all your friends, when you forgot this particular prick of a man actually existed.

I could tell 'Emma' relished telling us like that. When I have tried talking to 'Ruby' about it- she isn't too mad at her but generally upset about the whole thing :(

LeBOF · 01/03/2012 23:40

I get what you're saying, I think. Is Emma normally that insensitive?

StetsonsAreCool · 01/03/2012 23:42

I think I just don't get why you all know what your friend's fanjo looks like. Moomins got it in one.

Just goes to show, no good can come from over sharing.
