Girlfriend

“That's how you do it!”

― Girlfriend, Friday Night Funkin'

Girlfriend is Boyfriend's partner and the daughter of Daddy Dearest and Mommy Mearest. She is usually seen sitting on top of the speakers, bopping her head to the tempo of the music, cheering Boyfriend on and keeping track of combos. Her tracks include Tutorial, where she teaches players how to play the game.

Appearance
Girlfriend is a young, light-skinned female with long auburn hair. She wears a sleeveless red dress and red high heels. Her fingernails are painted red. She is always on a set of speakers, sitting on the large middle one with her legs crossed.

During Week 5, she wears a sleeveless red dress with a fluffy white collar, red gloves with white cuffs, white thigh-high stockings with small red bows and yellow bell earrings. The speakers she sits on are all wrapped in festive Christmas lights.

During Week 6, her regular appearance is rendered in a 32-bit style.

During the last track of Week 7, she is held up from her waist by Boyfriend.

Trivia

 * Girlfriend's design was based off of the Rhythm Heaven character Girl.
 * Girlfriend is the first character to not have a "danger" icon, the second being Daddy Dearest, the third being Senpai, and the fourth being Spirit.
 * However, the reason why she doesn't have one is most likely due to the fact that she's not really in danger of losing during the Tutorial since she's only teaching the player how to play the game.
 * Girlfriend is the first antagonist that does not use a microphone, the second being Monster and the third being Spirit.
 * She loves Cherry Dr. Pepper, as confirmed in a tweet made by ninjamuffin99.
 * If Boyfriend fails to hit a note during a +10 note combo, she will briefly cry.
 * However, this won't occur in Week 4 and Week 6 as there are no versions of this animation for those weeks.
 * She's afraid of thunder, as she will briefly react fearfully whenever it strikes along with Boyfriend in an animation in Week 2.
 * Girlfriend is canonically 19 years old.
 * Her fingernails are painted red, however, they can only be seen during the Tutorial when she points.
 * Girlfriend has some unused voice clips that were likely going to be used for the Tutorial, but were scrapped in favor of her speaking English.
 * Girlfriend's favorite video game is Tetris.
 * Girlfriend's favorite kind of pizza topping is olive.
 * In early stages of development, Girlfriend was meant to cross and swap her legs during her idle animation. During the one frame when both legs were separated, there would've been darkness and sparkles in her dress. This idea was scrapped in favor of her just bopping her head to the music, which was easier to animate. Time constraints was another issue.
 * On a Twitch livestream, it was confirmed by both PhantomArcade and ninjamuffin99 on the latter's livestream that Girlfriend is extremely dumb, having an immense amount of faith in Boyfriend to handle things.
 * Girlfriend being dumb is reaffirmed by ninjamuffin99 in a Twitter AMA.
 * PhantomArcade has also stated directly that, in spite of how she is depicted in their respective mods, Girlfriend would be too dumb to ever be afraid of characters like Whitty or Ruv.
 * In the Week 7 track Stress, it's revealed through the Game Over screen that Girlfriend is a demon, much like her parents. In addition to her red skeleton and spiky teeth, she is shown to be hiding a pair of black horns. Given that they are only visible here, they are likely being hidden underneath her hair.
 * She can make her eyes gleam red and make her skin purple, warning about her demon powers as seen in the cutscene of Stress.
 * In the Week 7 update, her unused cheering animation was added to the tutorial.
