The ‘Distracted Boyfriend’ meme has been popular around the world – depicting a disgruntled girlfriend looking at her boyfriend looking at another woman – and is even up for a Shorty Award (recognising great social media content)…
But perhaps nobody has nailed ‘Distracted Boyfriend’ as well as this photoshopped version from South Africa, which has gone viral:

In fact, one of the photos almost reflects the original ‘Distracted Boyfriend’… except this time it appears to be Distracted Girlfriend!
