@GemmaS,
It is very sad to say that women are known to battle and they don"t cease it.
I'm a woman too and it is very embarrasing to me because men do laugh about it if they aren't embroiled .
When men do have a scuffle they stop after a certain time and let each other get out of the pillory.
Women do never ever!!!!!
Doesn't matter where women are around , as co-workers , in communities like here or where ever one's discover a crowd of women.
Specific under 45 .It is always the same game!
Not even they do care about their fight in front of men.
That causes about a competition .She want be the best, the prettiest, the slimest .....whatever.
Such attitutes you can't find amongst men.
I know , it is nearly impossible to heed my advice. . But try to be exaggarate polite toward her .
Jt would be embarrassing to her while she is annoyed and her opponent is smiling dispite and asks her ....: What do have troubles about me , or you can say ....:Can I help you.?
....Don"t trouble yourself on my account...
Even though you would love to kick off her.
You have not givs her flowers , but be above,.. do her favors and she will be ashamed about herself. Maybe she blushes in front of you for a long time.
