Ah, the Jennifer trilogy (“don’t mess with my love”, “do you know what you want” and “Jennifer”) – here’s my theory – Boy meets girl. Let’s call boy Jason, and girl Marion, just to make it easy. Jason and Marion like each other, and start to date. They start hanging with the same people. At which point, Marion does the stupidest thing, and introduces Jason to her hot friend – Jennifer. A big no-no. Jennifer is kind of a flirt, and a drama-queen. She’s not evil, she’s just… girlish. She wants Marion to be happy, so she becomes friends with Marion’s new love – Jason. At some point Jennifer starts feeling things towards Jason. She is torn apart in her little drama, between her friend Marion, and her heart which belongs to Jason. Now, at this point, she does the smart this and hits on Jason, going all “do you know what you want, ooh, you look so confused” on the boy. Jason, terrified and confused, goes to Marion and tells her that something odd has been going on with Jennifer. He does not want to tell her Jennifer hit on him, because that would be coming between their friendship, and Jason loves Marion, he does not want to hurt her. Marion, sensitive and jealous to begin with, catches up to how stupid she was to introduce the two in the first place, and goes all “stop talking about Jennifer!! All the time, it’s “Jennifer this and Jennifer that”. Now Jason breaks down. He tells her all about the “do you know what you want” episode, and begs her to leave it alone, tells her he loves only her. But that’s really not good enough to take Marion’s mind off her backstabbing friend. So she goes to Jennifer and starts with the “don’t mess with my love, slut!”

It’s like a bloody musical.
