Tina was almost always with her friends. So,it was no secret that she could think like a boy. She knew that they always had to win. She knew that they're game addicts. She knew when they wanted to be left alone, YOU SHOULD LEAVE THEM ALONE. And most importantly, she knew that they never meant to be jerks.Her friends who were girls however, did not get this. They automatically thought any guy she hung out with, she was dating. They just couldn't see it in their stereotypically mind that a girl and a guy could be Friends.
If I wasn't her and Mike dating, it would be that she was Finns girlfriend. If it wasn't that, it was that she and Mason were in love. And if it wasn't that, it was that she had a crush on Bryan. She had been accused of ALL these rumors. And she absolutely hated them.
So did her friends(especially Mike).But she learned to let it go. She knew one day her friends would gain some sense and realize, they are not her boyfriends, their her best friends so when people tell her
" Hey, Tina your boyfriends waiting for you!"
She knew how to respond because Tina Cho is just one of the guys.
