10 Problems Every Guy Faces If His Best Friend Is A Girl

Having a girl as your best friend is a fantastic thing to happen to any guy. They are super fun, they are caring, they understand you better, and you get the best dating advice ever. Not to mention they bring along their cute female friends too. But even the best rosebush has thorns, and having a girl best friend can be a real pain in the ass sometimes. Those who’ve had girls as their best buds will relate to these 10 situations. 

1. Everybody Thinks You Are Together

The one biggest disadvantage of having a girl best friend is that the whole world thinks you are together. Including your parents. And they simply assume that you two will end up together one day. 

2. Girls At Clubs Assume You Are Taken

This has got to be the biggest casualty. And sometimes you just want to tell your girl BFF to stay away! Stay the hell away. While sometimes she brings her cute friends along and you are more than happy, most often than not, she doesn’t. And no matter how cute or charming you are, other girls just assume you and your girl BFF are a couple. Even friends of friends eye the ‘only friends’ tag with suspicion, and are wary of flirting with you. Safe to say, you will remain single for eternity. 

3. And When You Explain She’s Just Your Friend, They Think “It’s Complicated”

Nobody believes that easily. They smile that all-knowing smile that says you are either lying or you don’t know it yet. No matter how much you convince the girls, they just don’t buy it. 

4. All Your Potential Girlfriends Are Scrutinized First

And if you finally manage to get a girl interested in you, your girl best friend is going to judge her carefully and decide whether she is good for you or not. This screening process can be quite grilling, with your best friend criticizing her to pieces. She is too snobbish, she ain’t pretty enough, she was rude to her, her fashion sense is terrible. 

5. Your Girlfriend Will Hate Her

The cruelest part. When after all the hurdles, you manage to win the jackpot, it’s not all hunky dory. The two ladies will not get along well, for sure. Either your girlfriend will not like your girl best friend, and will always be suspicious of you two, or your girl best friend will keep judging her and complain that you neglect her. 

6. Sometimes She Forgets You Are A Guy And Makes You Do Things You Hate

Just because you are her best friend doesn’t mean you’ll go shopping with her and wait for 2 hours till she buys the whole mall. And no, you don’t want to hear her period tales. She tells you things you don’t want to hear. No, you are not interested in knowing what Neha said to Sameera or what Riya wore for her date with Rohit. 

7. Your Guy Friends Hit On Her

When you finally make it clear that you two are not together, the first thing your single guy friends do is start pestering you to play cupid. The losers get after your life to set your best friend on a date with them. And when you don’t, they hate you. 

8. You Have To Maintain Hygiene Standards When She’s Around

Seriously, what’s the big deal about not bathing in winters anyway? But no, your girl best friend would have none of it. She will barge in your room unannounced, and you have to not be in your underwear or not have the room smelling of stale pizza at any time of the day. No movie marathons in underwear anymore. 

9. She Gets You In Trouble

No matter where and when, you are the bigger man in the friendship. She picks a fight and you have to douse the fire. Pick her up from the metro station, shield her in the crowd, get the beer in a pub, do everything you’d otherwise do in a relationship – and without actually being in one! You don’t mind doing all those things because she is your best friend after all, but it sucks to always be the sugar daddy, doesn’t it?!

10. She Gets The Free Drink

Now this is plain injustice. Why should only ladies get the free cocktail, day in day out. Nobody ever thinks of the poor men who end up paying as stags, as well as when they are with a girl. You wrap up work on Thursdays because it’s ladies night and at least one of you guys will get free unlimited drinks. She can drink to her heart’s content. Oh but you could not drink too much anyway – you have to drive and drop her back home, remember?

How to Encrypt Data on External Drives

It's not hard to lose a USB flash drive; it's even easier to steal one. If you're the victim of such a theft, panic is understandable. There could be work documents, private pictures, your kid's birthday party video, or amazing notes for a NaNoWriMo novel—anything—on that drive. It's unlikely to be the only copy—this is the age of online backup and sync, after all. But if you're crazy enough to trust your most important, irreplaceable data to a device that's even easier to misplace or forget than your keys, at least make sure that data is secure. What you'll need is software for encrypting the data, and that software has to be portable, in that it runs on any PC without installation, since it will likely run from the flash drive itself. Note, these solutions also work with any external hard drive, for the most part, plus your much-harder-to-steal internal hard disk drives (HDDs) and solid-state drives (SSDs).
