But, was there any evidence showing that Nina was crushing on Ace before Ace made his move on Brook? From what I can immediately remember - there was no indication that Nina was interested in Ace at that point in time (a pet name doesn't count as interest. And any evidence that she may have been crushing on Ace only happened after she gave up on her obsession with Kade - and by then, Ace and Brooke were dating).CFT wrote:Again, allow me to point out that -assuming the validity of this "Girl Code"*- Brooke was the first one to brake it by agreeing to Ace's advances and becoming his girlfriend in the first place. And using the excuse that Brooke didn't know Nina's feelings towards Ace isn't working very much either, given that Brooke and Ace were very clearly trying to keep their relationship secret from Nina and were not much surprised when she broke into tears after seeing them together. They either knew or heavily suspected Nina's feelings.Fluffy wrote:The guy is violating the Girl Code. Doesn't matter if he's aware that he's doing it or not. For alot of girls, the Girl Code is sacred and they expect guys to know that it exists - and to respect it.
*in my opinion, Brooke did good becoming Ace's girlfriend, and does bad here (though, as I said I can understand her feelings, but they are still the wrong reaction). So, obviously I'm not a big fan of girls following such "codes". ;)
So, Brooke would not be in violation of the girl code at that point - seeing as a girl is not going to dump her boyfriend just because her BFF suddenly wants to declare him for herself.
