Do women really secretly hate all other women?

[Utrommaniac]

Mine needs to be resized...it's too big for my finger and it's already pretty small since it's a princess cut . Size 6.

I've seen a few fights over the years. Some girls. Some guys. But the one that always sticks out in my mind is from 8th grade. It was a horrible ambush. Let me explain.

We had crowed halls with top and bottom lockers. You needed to be on your knees to get into your locked if you had the bad luck of having a bottom one. Or you had to wait until the top locker person was done and then be awkwardly bent over getting into your bottom locker. Often being shoved while waiting.

Anyway, I was walking down the hall and noticed a girl on her knees getting into her locker. Then another girl popped out of the crowd behind the girl on her knees getting into her bottom locker and pulled out scissors. Chop chop the girl no longer had a ponytail. I later heard it had to do with one friend becoming involved with the others boyfriend.

Scissors? That's too far. At least she didn't try and pull the other girl's hair which i think is rather painful.

Yeah both sound horrible! But with the scissors I think the emotional pain, feeling violated and perhaps embarrassed would last a lot longer. That girl knew what she was doing in skipping the pulling and going straight to the chopping.

Six?! Geeze that's still HUUUUGE compared to mine! My class ring (and my engagement/wedding rings) is a size FOUR. I kid you not. I have tiny hands and feet.....

[Utrommaniac]

I think part of why I did that was the 5 was too uncomfortable.

[MsMarvelDuckie]

Have you tried a ring pad? Little thing that clips on around the inside part od the ring (the side on your palm).

[IndigoErth]

Me and my gargantuan 7.5 (ring finger size) over here... lol

Although to be fair, if my hands are cold they get a little too lose.

Huh...maybe. Not a bad idea. Cheaper too. I don't wear it a lot though

[MsMarvelDuckie]

Well you could also use it on other loose rings too.

Wow, someone with the same ring size as my ex at the time heh. She's put on a little weight since we split and she's now 4.5 I believe. That's still tiny though! unfortunately she's found a number of places only do 5 as smallest, so often she has to get rings reduced.

[snake]

Mine's bigger than yours.

[Utrommaniac]

Now, ya see, this is what's more likely to happen when women communicate than "inherently hating each other"

[IndigoErth]

Mhmm...

"Women hate each other."

*Start talking about jewelry*

(Okay it started over a story of a ring used as a weapon, but that's how ladies roll. With the punches if necessarily.)

[plastroncafe]

Wait, there's other reasons to wear jewelry than as potential weapons?

That's not what they taught us in gym class...

Necklaces are a liability. Go for rings... big and chunky.

Anything is a liability if you don't know how to use it correctly and well.

[MsMarvelDuckie]

Earrings are more of a liability than necklaces. A necklace can at least be tucked under a shirt unless it has a low neckline. I keep mine under my shirts all the time to avoid having it dangle and possibly get caught on stuff at work.

[Utrommaniac]

Oh god yeah. Especially hoop earrings.

I had a phase in 2006 where I wore necklaces on a daily basis, but I honestly don't know why I stopped. Sometimes the same one every day.

[MsMarvelDuckie]

I never take mine off. Not even for showers or to sleep. It's a little onyx and zircon-studded silver spider. Was a Christmas gift from Mr D. He knew I'd been eying it (I love spiders) so he surprised me with it a few years ago. I used to wear a little tigers-eye turtle but the chain came apart one day and the turtle fell off and cracked in half.
