You may not have realized it, but that one friend of yours—the one who hasn’t been on a date in five years by choice and doesn’t even have a desire to engage in boy talk—she hates men. If you really think about it, you remember that any time a man talks to her, she looks at him as if she’s imagining the ways he might die one day. If you really think about it, your boyfriend and his friends go quiet when she walks in the room. And if you really, really think about it, you remember she has seemed happy every time you’ve broken up with somebody—it’s the type of happiness reserved for engagement announcements, but she usually fake-vomits when people get engaged. Your man-hating friend can be problematic for you because, ultimately, she doesn’t want you to, well, be happy with a man. And you might not ever be if you keep hanging with her.

She yells at men who want to buy you drinks

Every time you think you may get a free round of drinks, she metaphorically grabs the balls of the man who offered to buy them and gives him a speech about how we aren’t sleeping with you because you buy us drinks.

You can’t talk to her about fights

If you dare tell her about a fight you recently got in with your boyfriend, she will make you feel like things are so much worse than they really are. She won’t make any excuses for your partner’s behavior—he’s the worst, and you deserve better.

Her boyfriends are always garbage humans

On the rare occasion that she has a boyfriend, her boyfriends are disrespectful, hateful men. Why? Because your friend clearly doesn’t love herself, so she chooses men who don’t know how to love her, either. And you have to hang out with them.
