That's one thing that stinks about being a girl.
We take one thing - most likely something small and close to meaningless - and draw it out.
Especially if it's about boys.
We gossip about it. Tell everyone.
Because it's fun. And in an apartment absolutely filled with estrogen, it's hard to keep a secret.
Especially if it's about boys.
We get all excited and giddy.

And then we get disappointed when we realize that it was nothing.

Because remember, things get exaggerated. And so just as feelings of excitement and happiness were likely a little over the top, so will the feelings of disappointment.

Where does a girl go from there?
