Girl Code's Carly Aquilino on Dating and More
Have you gotten any totally out-there questions?
Well, I had a weird thing that happened. A guy shaved my face into his back. He had a really hairy back. He tweeted at me, "If you retweet me, I'm going to shave your face into my back." And I retweeted like, "LOL." Within a half hour, it was my face on his back. I wish I had a screenshot of this—I can't find it anywhere. His girlfriend shaved my face into his hairy, man back and put red where my hair was. I was like, "Good for you. Thank you so much." It wasn't even an artistic thing—it was a smiley face with red hair.
That's so strange! OK, so, let's talk the Girl Code on dating and social media. When's the soonest you should add a new guy on Facebook?
I always want to see a guy's Facebook and Twitter right away. I would do this thing where, if you're out on a date, you say, "Oh, add me on Facebook. I have this really funny picture." Then it won't be creepy like, "I'm going to go home and add you on Facebook at 1 A.M." Because he'll be like, "Eww, we just got home!" I would just play it cool, and then that whole night you can stalk him and he won't even know. I'm avid about that—just googling the sh-t out of them.
What's the Girl Code when another girl sends flirty texts or comments to your boyfriend?
That aggravates me so much. If you say something to your boyfriend about that, he's like, "You're crazy." He can't control what girls say. If he doesn't answer them back, he's really not doing anything wrong. You could be like, "Well, if you don't care, why don't you block her?" 'Cause we're taking it back to high school...in our 20s. [Laughs] I would probably not say anything unless it started getting crazy. Girls comment on my boyfriend's [SNL's Pete Davidson] stuff all the time, and I'm like, "Ugh, you're annoying." He doesn't know any of them, so it doesn't matter. If it was a girl he knew and she was sending hearts-in-the-eyes emoji comments, I would not be able to deal with it. I would be like, "No, you're not talking to her ever again. You have to quit your job and stop your whole entire life and just live at home and you can't talk to anybody or you can't have an Instagram." [Laughs] My boyfriend actually deleted his Instagram.
Why?
He hates comments when people are mean. They're so mean, and they say such hurtful things. So he deleted his first Instagram, but then he was like, "Uh, that was a lot of followers." Now he has one, but he has no pictures and doesn't follow anybody. I'm like, "Why don't you post a picture of me on Instagram?" And he says, "I don't post any pictures on Instagram, Carly." And I say, "Well, what if you did? That would be nice if you care a lot about me." I'm so annoying. I tell him every day I'm the most annoying person in the world. [Laughs]
