That's the biggest rub for me.
Not one of the 124 or so were so close to her that they'd let that happen....
Not one that would go just to be a chaperone themself, even if it meant just hanging around making sure she got home safe after she had some fun with this one guy...
This whole part never made sense to me...
Guys can tend to dump other guys off and leave em in a lurch at bars and tell them to fend for yourself... And we think back and it's quite funny...
But I've never experienced a bunch of girlfriends abadoning one of their own...They tended to run in packs because us drunk guys can be pigs....And there is safety in numbers.. even if two is the number...
maybe the reason Natalee didn't go with the other kids and why she was upset in the bar is that she had a fight with one of her girlfriends......
