When you are with your favourite mates of all time. CAN NOT BE USED WITH UNGENUINE MATES. Use it when you pick up the phone to your mate, all your favourite mates are in the same place, when your mate does/says something to do with an inside joke.

How attractive someone is as a potential mate. Based on things like beauty/hotness, wealth, intelligence, etc. Different qualities impact mate value in different cultures, and mate value is evaluated somewhat differently for guys versus girls.
Why is it that I keep getting fixed up with guys with super-low mate value?!? I am not lowering my standards!!!
