Barney Stinson has been a great propagator of the Bro Code, but in all this Bro-ness, we’ve managed to ignore the quintessential Girl Code.

Girls have rules too and very clearly defined ones and it’s time someone put them in the limelight. Here’s to all the girls out there, your unspoken Bible revealed.

Girl Code 1: Never dress better than the birthday girl.

Your hotness level should always be one level below the birthday girl, especially if the birthday girl is your best friend. Which is exactly the reason all of us call our friends to see what they’re wearing.

Exception: Dress better than the birthday girl if she is an annoying, self involved, hated and sadistic bitch.

 

Girl Code 2: Never lash out on a sister when she’s heartbroken

Even if your girlfriend had sobbed about everything right from her ex’s perfume to a sock he left at her place, you shall never tell her how pathetic she sounds.

Exception: Unless it’s been a year or more and you now know his mother’s shoe size.

 

Girl Code 3: Never ever date your girlfriend’s ex.
