Transcript
If she's already planning her hot girl summer in Europe even though it's March, wifey. If she can better York the Rogue by day or Miami Fashion Nova by night, wifey. If she'd rather a red light at home than a gaslight at dinner, wifey. If she'd take a hotel robe night in, over heels and a dress night out, wipey. If her favorite hobby is a matcha and walk, low cortisol, wipey. If the day you meet her, she has an RBF, but then when she opens up, she's just a goofball, wipey. If she expects a Charles and Alexandra wedding on the third date, wifey the show. If she's high maintenance, to be low maintenance, wifey. If she does the ponytail and hairspray thing, wifey. If she expects you to just know and gets the ick if she has to ask, wifey. And if she does the Hailey Bieber finger clap, that's the one by G, wifey.
