To think friend is super paranoid and not everyone wants her boyfriend?

It was friends birthday night out last night - she had pre-drinks at her house and this included her, me and two other women.

Her boyfriend then joined us about an hour later. One of the women with us (so I was told today) was sat with her legs crossed and then when the bf turned up she sat with legs apart.

I never noticed and I’m pretty certain it wasn’t a re-enactment of Basic Instinct Grin

But apparently this must mean she’s after the boyfriend.

I would’ve thought legs crossed would look ‘sexier’ than legs apart anyway? Is v weird it was noticed and then attributed to being after one’s man

Was she wearing a skirt?

Drowningmysorroes · 11/01/2020 22:00

What? Like the secretary in love actually?

foodiefil · 11/01/2020 22:03

🤨 how old is she? If she's 15 then I can forgive her paranoia. If not wtf?

shitpark · 11/01/2020 22:04

Aye. It's a sign. She wanted to waft her smell in his direction.
Was your friend very drunk, and does he have form for chasing women that like to sit with their legs spread out

TitianaTitsling · 11/01/2020 22:04

Does the leg crossing friend have the dubiety of being a 'gasp' single female... Of course she's after every man if she is.. the wench!

FramingDevice · 11/01/2020 22:05

I find it hilarious that some people seem to assume everyone's after their tubby, balding accountant boyfriend who monologues about Everton and says 'Correct!' instead of 'Yes' when you ask him a question.

I mean, maybe he's your idea of love's young dream, but isn't it the teensiest bit arrogant to assume we all long to unbutton his short-sleeved, polyester-blend shirt?

TitianaTitsling · 11/01/2020 22:05

And of course if she's wafting like shit said, no man can resist!

BorissGiantJohnson · 11/01/2020 22:08

If she had no pants on, and lifted her skirt with one hand while doing a wafting motion with the other hand towards the boyfriend to spread her bag smell in his direction then SINBU. Otherwise, just wow.

BorissGiantJohnson · 11/01/2020 22:08

Vag smell, not bag smell autocorrect. Don't be weird.

TheFormidableMrsC · 11/01/2020 22:11

I feel sorry for the boyfriend 👀

Mammatino · 11/01/2020 22:25

Some women always seem to think all women are "after" their men. I usually find this is after the boyfriend has spoken to the attractive friend once. It's always the temptress tart whose led them astray not the boyfriend too. It's probably the girlfriend with massive insecurities who thinks their actual friends would make a play for their partner. It's all a little bit fucked up. Did she ask the temptress friend if she was after her man or just bitch her up behind her back?

littlepaddypaws · 11/01/2020 22:33

how old is she ? 14 ?

PhilomenaChristmasPie · 11/01/2020 22:36

What do bags smell of?

NotStayingIn · 11/01/2020 22:37

I often find the women who are worried other women are after their man, are dating men no other woman would touch with a barge pole. Grin

biguglytears · 11/01/2020 22:38

The one time someone really was after my bloke I didn't notice until it was too late.

I'm really laughing at all the vag wafting. 😄

FiddlesticksAkimbo · 11/01/2020 22:40

Sorry, the friend is going by her instincts, she's probably right and should trust them.

hippyfuckinghooray · 11/01/2020 22:40

She might of just had a fanny farty that need displacing. Mega waft needed.

hippyfuckinghooray · 11/01/2020 22:41

Fanny fart...... I don't call them fartys in real life. Honest.

YES! Its never the women with hot men who think this, its always the husbands with a beer gut, comb over, and mild BO who the wives think everyone is "after their man". No, we really aren't.

I know this man! He tends to start his pompous announcements with "I think you'll find ..." 🤬

Bluntness100 · 11/01/2020 22:51

God I've had this so much at work, the uglier the bloke the more the wife thinks he is the dogs bollocks, because he earns x amount. When in reality most woman would rather eat their own liver than shag them. They think every woman is being provocative and is a threat. It s all about their own insecurity, but god it's tiresome.
