There is nobody quite like Bridget Jones. She represents most women in some way or another, and we can all relate to her. Whether it be single Bridget, married Bridget, heartbroken Bridget or mortified Bridget, we’ve all been there.

1. Showing up to an event either incredibly under-dressed or over-dressed (by accident)

The embarrassment.

2. Rambling away in the presence of beautiful men

Only ours wasn’t Mark Darcy.

3. Feeling the pressure from society to be in a relationship through the medium of your own mother

Always helpful.

4. Resorting to the hermit lifestyle, avoiding all responsibilities and eating nothing but crap

Standard.

5. Try too hard to look amazing for a date and turn out looking like some sort of bizarre pigeon lady

Not worth being late for.

6. Falling for the whimsically intelligent, fun loving bellend.

Happens to the best of us.

7. Having your attempt at being a Domestic Goddess go absolutely arse-ways

Blue soup om nom!

8. Finding mental refuge and strength in the company of your father

They always take our side no matter what.

9. Having two beautiful men fight over you

Lol jk.

10. Either way it’s either a feast or a famine

We all have our good and our bad Tinder days.

11. When we do get some we try to hide the effects of the Relationship Diet

Why did we eat all those burritos?

12. Having a massive pair of comfy granny knickers

Okay, fine. Five pairs.

13. Being the ONLY single one of your friends

Ice-Cream, don’t you leave me too!

14. And having the fact rubbed in your face

Ah, Saturday nights.

15. The revelation that you are a strong, single and independent woman with no desire or need for a man whatsoever

Those Destiny Child girlos would be proud.

16. Seeking self-improvement

Everyday is a fresh start to becoming a better person.

17. Finding that you actually love that guy you hate

But…no. How can this be?

18. Turning down that total d*** who has been messing you around for years and feeling so damn proud about it

You go girl!
