Girl Code could be best described as a set of rules and conditions that every girl should know and stick to. Most ladies think that you should never, under any circumstance, deviate from those rules because you will break the trust and solidarity of your friends and you will be condemned to a life of isolation. But, you should know that things are not always as they seem since there are also a few girl code rules that can be interpreted in many different ways. Here are a few girl code rules that shouldn’t always be followed:
1. Never Reveal Another Girl’s Secret

Well, even though it’s very important to be a trustworthy person and an honest friend, there can be times when it’s actually bad to keep a secret, even it that secret involves another girl. Here I am talking about the times when that secret could be endangering that girl’s safety or any other person’s safety for that matter.
2. Never Invite a Friend’s Enemy to a Party

Even if it’s important to always be there for your friends and do everything in your power to avoid any potential conflicts between you, there are times when you should ask your friend to be a bit more understanding. Let’s say, for example, that you are throwing a party and your friend can’t stand a particular person. You’ll still have to invite their enemy to your party if that enemy happens to be your boss or another close friend of yours.

3. Never Dine Alone with a Friend’s Boyfriend
/filters:quality(70)/content/ic/qz/tdh7ghvz57e75f14373b3989991461_600x600.jpg)
Does this rule should still apply if your friend’s boyfriend is an old friend of yours, if you are like siblings and you grew up together? Let’s say that he was your friend first and you actually introduced him to your girlfriend because you knew that they would be perfect for each other. You can see that there can be exceptions to any rule and this is clearly one of them.
4. Never Date a Friend’s Ex
/filters:quality(70)/content/g6/qd/h9fc3kxl57e75f82efecd415814183_499x484.jpg)
Well, this can be a tricky one. It depends on how serious the relationship between your friend and your new crush really was, how long it has been since they used to date and what your friend thinks about you dating one of her exes. Just talk to them first and if they are okay with that, then just go for it, you never know where you can find true love.
5. You Need to Change Your Hair to Feel Good about Yourself
/filters:quality(70)/content/sp/wu/gv63p6a857e75efa08798368647982_600x600.jpg)
When something traumatic happens to a woman, like a breakup for example, she feels like she needs to make important changes in her life to feel good again. Among these changes, one of the most common is changing the hair color or the hairstyle. Well, you shouldn’t do that if you don’t want to do it because there are a lot of other simple yet efficient things you can do to improve your mood and none of them involves changing your physical appearance.

6. If Your Friend is Interested in a Guy First, You Shouldn’t Try to Talk to Him
/filters:quality(70)/content/xx/z5/ijk54by157e75fd989c0f929760658_600x727.jpg)
I would like to start by saying that you should never, under any circumstance, try to steal your friend’s boyfriend because that is unacceptable among friends. But if they aren’t even together or if they haven’t even talked to each other, it would be unfair of your friend to forbid you to talk to them, especially if they know that you like them too.
7. You Should Always Share Makeup Products or Clothes with Your Friends
/filters:quality(70)/content/kw/kf/w1v9toxq57e76050a546d021137491_600x749.jpg)
I’m not saying that you shouldn’t share hair, makeup or clothing advice with your friends. On the contrary, you should always try to help them pick the best outfit. Just that, there are times when it’s not that okay to share makeup products or clothes. It’s not sanitary for a start, but what if you and your friend don’t wear the same size or if she spills something that it will ruin your favorite dress or shirt? I’m sure you wouldn’t be too pleased about that.
I’m not saying that you shouldn’t be there for your friends or for other girls for that matter; just try to be a good person and treat others with kindness and respect. Do you know any other girl code rules that shouldn’t always be followed? Please share your thoughts with us in the comments section!

Alyx: @peony again, you posted yours an hour BEFORE malinas comment. That's how your lying. You keep saying it's because you wanted to help her, but it had nothing to do with her. Like Ritchie said too, I was trying to get you to see other people's views and see it in different perspectives. But you just insult me for it lol. So I'm done helping you to grow as a person and you can live your life being one track minded. I never made it about me at all, I was trying to help you, I literally made it about you. But again, I'm done. You aren't able to actually debate or listen, you just defend yourself (for no reason) and insulte the other person. That's why I'm sure lots of people go off on you. Learning how to cope and listen when there's a disagreement or difference in views is a key part of life. You seem to be the "defense-fabricate-insult" type of person. If you had listened and thought about it you'd do an excellent job at problem solving during times when perspectives aren't all yours. And just so you know, I'm into girls and have a lovely girlfriend, so I'm sure Ritchie is a good guy, but he's really not my type, thanks. Have a good day peony. Try to see in other perspectives just once, it'll really help you grow as a person. :)
Alyx: And honestly if your friend is after your ex the day you broke up, she's not a great friend. But you can't control who you're attracted to or who you fall in love with. If my friend went "I really like your ex" I'd be like "okay, go for it" im not with them anymore, we obviously broke up for a reason. I don't get why there's that "rule". What if they are truly in love and are soul mates but you're going to stop it because of what? You dated them first so he's off limits to everyone you ever know? I truly don't get that. Besides if it doesn't work out then you can go "well, I warned you" with all the shit said after the breakup. But I really don't understand why she'd be a bad friend just for dating your ex. As long as she asks if you are planning to try again then whatever. Especially in small relationships, its likely she was there for most of it and spent nearly as much time as you with them. If they click better than you did, then let her have her chance at love. Isn't it more rude to deny however many people you dated from all your friends? What happens if they are miserable and lonely for years, or die alone because that guy you dated for a year was her soul mate and she couldn't find someone else who compares? That'd be a much much worse friend imo.
Joanne: Another rule should be " don't date your friend's brother", as this might end up causing a conflict if things don't end well.
peony: @Ritchie v she might be cool to you but not to me so glad I won't be hearing from her again yippee!!!!
amby : Were*lol effin auto correct
alka: @Wendy are you living in 2015? Or the 1500s? Many men do wear makeup for example actors wear make up, I have also met guys who wear eyeliner and foundation to cover blemishes. And lots of gay men wear make up as well. Anyone can wear it. It wasnt made for a specific gender.
Ritchie: And n, I dont wear makeup.
Ritchie: Like I said before if my partner wants to go out on the town with any if my make friends thats cool.
Ritchie: Queen sung that song Another one bites the dust. Peony relax lol
Alyx: wait @peony so EVERY ONE you go to dinner with you automatically want?? I go for dinner with friends SO's all the time. As their friend I want to know the person making them happy. I go for weekly dinners with one of my closest friends husband. 90% of the time she isn't there. It doesn't mean I want him, it means he's also my friend now.
