Tipper Namir is the youngest female member
of the group. Because of this, whenever she hits a milestone in her
life (such as her first date, her first serious relationship), the other
girls in the cast are there to give her advice. Tipper's own mother
was rarely around to give her any. There are times when she appreciates
the advice she gets, but there are other times when she just wants to do
things her own way (however wrong that may be).
Tipper used to be high strung, but over the past
few years things such as dumping her boyfriend (after she found him cheating
on her on Christmas day) have begun to mellow her out. She's never
been too good at school or anything involving hand-eye coordination (excluding
the occasional punch to cheating boyfriends). As Snickers'
little sister, Tipper is friends with most of Snickers'
friends, with the exception being Blue
Deiter. Blue
and Tipper's relationship began rather harshly. They never really got along
and physically fought a lot. However, over the years, the two have mellowed
up a bit. They fight less and there have been a few times when Blue
has offered Tipper advice. You could almost say that Blue has finally
acknowledged Tipper's right to exist.
Tipper hasn't had much luck in dating since she
dumped her long time boyfriend, Devlin, She has met a couple of good
male friends (such as Twix
and Taimoor,
a boy one year younger than her whom she met while doing forced community
service at a YMCA).
Tipper is a budding young woman with a whopping
three hair style changes throughout the series. Tipper is never quite
sure of herself, but that never keeps her from trying. She tries
to be there as much as possible for her friends, the few of them that she
has. She is not sure about herself as a woman and wonders if she's 'good
enough'. Coincidentally, her self-esteem has a tendency to fall when she's
around men she is attracted to.
She will try difficult tasks, but once she has tried
and failed she has a tendency to give up. Tipper usually dresses in a cute
tomboy fashion. Her favorite thing in the world to wear being a sweater
jacket with a hoody.
Tipper had one friend in High School, a girl named
Gabby
who wasn't on friendly terms with Cedric
(which made her all right in Tipper's book). Since then they have all gotten
on better terms with each other.
Tipper had been having some trouble adjusting to
life after her father busted his way back into her life, only to forget
about her once again...she was in a relationship with Cedric
for a while, but the two of them have split off... Taimoor
has also broken things off officially with Tipper- leaving her very single
at the moment.
Tipper also had to come to terms with the death
of her mother, as well as coming to terms with her sister, Snickers,
originally lying to her about it (Snickers
was trying to protect her from the information but at the end it just hurt
Tipper). The two sisters have worked the issue out off-camera.
Thanks to the financial help of Blue,
she was able to attend the local community college, along with her friend
Falco
and ex-boyfriend
Cedric.
Falco
told Tipper that Gabby
had feelings for Tipper that went beyond friendship. Unfortunately
the situation ended up quite awkward as Tipper did not share Gabby's
feelings. She is still good friends with Falco
and Cedric.
During her second year of college, Tipper moved
out of her sister's house and into a three bedroom apartment with Gabby
and Charles.
She was not entirely fond of the situation at first, but the two of them
slowly grew fond of each other. After a whirlwind romance, the two
are engaged to be married.
Tipper currently works as an office worker at the
elementary school Joy is employed at.
