This is what ‘girl whatever’ actually means, from that wholesome viral TikTok trend

TikTok is full of people posting videos with the words “girl whatever” written on top this week, but what does it actually mean? Here’s a full explainer of the mew viral trend if you’re confused.

The trend sees people posting a clip of a moment in their life like driving past the Eiffel Tower when it’s glittering, walking down the street smiling or swimming in the clear blue ocean on a hot sunny day.

Then, you write the words “girl whatever” in white text in the middle of the screen and add Charli XCX’s 2013 track You (Ha Ha Ha)  in the background.

It’s a pretty simple trend, and it’s all about showing that you need to live life and find joy despite any challenges or problems life is throwing at you, which aren’t actually as big as they seem.

Bad things might be going on in your life, but the trend shows it’s not actually that serious, and you are still succeeding in your life and doing amazing things that you should be proud of.

For example, some more of the videos show people flying in a helicopter over Hawaii, driving over the Brooklyn Bridge with the Manhattan skyline in the background and admiring a beautiful sunset.

You’re saying “girl whatever” to all the problems and living your best life as they’re insignificant in the grand scheme of things and really not that deep. All these incredible memories you’re making in life are what really matters.

A third person added: “I love this trend because we will go to places that those people we once worried about would never even imagined they could. We leave the duds behind. Leave the friendships that don’t move forward.”
