My two friends are in an argument over a dress. I know it's stupid, but it just needs to end.
My friend went to the mall on Friday night and got a dress. Then on Sunday, my other friend went and got the same exact dress, only she didn't know the first one had already gotten it. We feel that whoever got the dress first should have it. That's the way our grup of friends has always agreed on these things. The friend who got the dress second went back to the mall and returned it- but got the same dress in a different color. Now they're arguing over it, and who should rightfully have it. I believe the two of them should either suck it up and deal with it, or both just get a new dress and not even worry about this anymore. Any input?

I'm sure a MILLION other people are wearing it...does that mean that all the people who bought it after the first person who bought it should return it?? no! Besides, why do you care? this is between your friends. Don't get involved..you wouldn't want to lose your 4 year old friends.

Igotamonopoly answered Tuesday May 3 2005, 7:09 pm: I agree with you. Let the gal who bought the dress second say that she is being immature and childish by just switching colors. Tell her that it sucks for the girl who had the original style to be copied, sincce people may switch who copied who.
ThugGirl041790 answered Tuesday May 3 2005, 6:35 pm: Tell them both to shut up and stop being so damn childish over a dress.. usually my friends and me like to dress alike for parties and things.. just tell them to ignore eachother and wear what they want.. much luv dez x0x0 [ ThugGirl041790's advice column | Ask ThugGirl041790 A Question ]
karenR answered Tuesday May 3 2005, 5:49 pm: If they are now diffrent colors I don't see the problem myself. I mean it's a piece of cloth! I would have seen nothing wrong with them wearing the same dress in the same color. But, diffrent colors is good. It won't look the same so much that way. I agree...tell them to suck it up and deal :) [ karenR's advice column | Ask karenR A Question ]
mapetiteodette answered Tuesday May 3 2005, 5:45 pm: You're absolutely right. Go tell both of them that they're being silly, and the dress looks horrendous anyways. (Even if the dress is stunnningly pretty, they'd feel better if you told them it was a stupid looking dress- just don't tell them they look stupid in it!) Go help both of them shop together so that they can pick out a nice new dress for both of them- without having another mishap.
Good Luck:-) [ mapetiteodette's advice column | Ask mapetiteodette A Question ]
Micah answered Tuesday May 3 2005, 5:38 pm: i think, if yall are friends it shouldnt matter, and besides if its the same color then not too many people will notice, unless it really stands out. but like, my friends would just laugh and if someone said somehitng to them about it theyd just laugh more. yea, they should suck it up. and if they cant its just immaturity. its just a dress, its not the end of the world.

LilBSUBabe08 answered Tuesday May 3 2005, 5:37 pm: I think they both need to grow up a little and deal with it. Why does it matter if someone ownes the same dress. THEY BOTH HAVE A RIGHT TO OWN IT! Its America! [ LilBSUBabe08's advice column | Ask LilBSUBabe08 A Question ]

OrionsFire answered Tuesday May 3 2005, 5:34 pm: I think as long as they don't wear it on the same day, it shouldn't matter. If they are planning on wearing the dress, tell the other one who owns one. It wouldn't even be that horrible if they wore it on the same day considering they have it in different colors. No one cares that much. [ OrionsFire's advice column | Ask OrionsFire A Question ]
