As a girl, I feel as though I can comfortably inform you men out there of our little secrets on how to dress to impress.

Crossing the unwritten rule and forbidden barrier of ‘hooking up’ with a friend’s ex, may result in some serious repercussions by the perpetrator.

Guys: I’ll let you in on a little secret. When it comes to picking up in clubs, girls often try just as hard as guys do. You’re probably reading this and thinking, yeah right. But it’s true. Take it from a girl - often we’re just as keen to strike up a conversation with the opposite sex as you are.
