The Bro Code: The unwritten guy law for all things girl

         Since I am very familiar with the amendments of girl law, I sought to find out what the real bro law is to the opposite sex. I have come into contact with it many times when guy friends  tell me stories of their broken friendships, aka "beef", over ex's, hook-ups, and girlfriends. So I went on a mission to record the unwritten law that many girls and guys are unaware to prevent the unintentional murder of friendships for all mankind!
          While researching the blog, I went to the source. I talked to about 20 guys and asked them the tough questions. My sample size were many different types of guys from the jock type to frat guys to nerdy guys, and even a jewish, white rapper and they were representative of many ages and races too. Before we proceed, I'de like to define "bro" www.urbandictionary.com defines it as: close friends; buds; pals; comradarie. Used in a sentence, "hey, he's my bro, I watch his back, and he watches mine, we're like brothers, yah know?" But, based on general consensus in guy world, there are 2 primary definitions, it could either mean one of your best friends that would do anything for you, like a best man. Or, not someone who would take a bullet for you but someone who is decently loyal, like your fraternity brothers or your roommates in college.  

Guy Constitution:

     I. First Amendment: "Bros Before Hoes"

It’s the golden rule in guy world. A friend drew this great mathemetical representaion of it, Friendship > women. When bros think their friend is spending too much time with your girl than them, which by the words of my friend Mike Conners is "unacceptable" and it is called being "pussy whipped". This is especially the case when the girlfriend is younger because she is less independent and tends to be more clingy he said.

    II.  Second Amendment: Friendships with Girlfriends of Bros

Generally, hanging out with her without him present is crossing the line. Of course us girls, like to be friendly with his friends and gain approval to encourage a relationship to develop. But flirting with his friends is taking it too far, make sure you are paying attention to how your jokes and dress can come across and avoid sometimes you can take it too far.  When a girl mentions randomly how much she is attracted to one of her guy's bros he will warn him when he really trusts him, to keep away. But he will keep it to himself if he doesn’t really trust his friend and try to keep them apart if he doesn't really trust him. When his friend hits on you, be polite but not encouraging, and warn your guy.

    III. Third Amendment: Ex Code

This is pretty complex and complicated issue. It’s hard to reach a consensus across the board. But one thing is certain, if you do get involved with a friend of your ex, don’t keep it secret. Guys will feel more betrayed by their friend wasn’t honest with them than they would be by their ex. But guys get bothered when you use their friends as your dating pool post break up, and often this is why girls get reputations for being slutty. Guys are more bothered by physical intimacy with their friends than emotional intimacy. Whether our aim is to get revenge or to make him jealous; getting involved with an ex’s friends is a bad idea unless the feelings are sincere and would justify a possible dissolved friendship.

    IV. Fourth Amendment: Dumping:

Sometimes, when your girl is incompatible with their man’s group of friends, she will probably get dumped. So, earning the respect of his friends and being friendly is a must especially when he is very close with his friends. But keep the second amendment in mind. Usually when guys disapprove they have their friends best interests in mind and since they are an objective, third party, they are usually right about their suspicions. Even if he doesn’t listen, the friends will slowly phase him out and often the relationship will end anyway.
