There is actually no species of bird called a "parakeet". Parakeet is the general term used to describe any of several small to medium sized parrots having long tails. This includes cockatiels, budgerigars and other smallish parrots.
Cockatiels can live happily with budgies although, as a rule, they do not breed as well when there are budgies in with them (there are always exceptions). Cockatiels can get along with Bourke Parrots and other birds which are not particularly territorial.

How would a girl parakeet react to a new boy parakeet?
If you're asking how to introduce them, here's how. Take them out and put them in a different cage. Keep them there for a few days, then put them in the old cage. make sure you have two food and water dishes-- one for each of them. Then, they will not get territorial and fight to the death. Or, you could just put a cage divider in until they get used to each other.
