I have this friend that I have know since kindergarten and we call each other best friends. We always hang out and eat lunch together but I don't know if we are true besties. We always run out of things to talk to and then we sit in awkward silence. I like her and she is nice. We get along good. We see each other at school and we are locker partners but we don't really hang out outside of school. I always feel kind of awkward and uncomfortable around her and she is always quiet around me. Is she a real friend? What should I do?




Being shy and awkward doesn't mean she's not a friend. It sounds to me like you guys are friends, maybe not best friends though. You can't really do anything about it unless you want her to be your best friend. If you do, try hanging out with her more outside of school.

IN HIstory I sit with one of my friends and he came in and sat down. This girl who sits next to me said something like "i swear sometimes i think your gay" I laughed a little bcuz i thought she was just joking around. then she turned to me and said "dont u think?" and i said 'no bcuz i don't think of my friends like that.' and then he wouldn't talk to either of us, and he wouldn't even look at me. I feel really bad and have tried telling him im sorry and texting him but he won't answer. I don't even know what i did wrong. What should I do?

 

Hey girl, just give him some space then try talking to him again. He just needs a little bit to cool off.

I agree with most of them but I really agree with Maggie, a friend is there through the good times and the bad. And guys are great but nothing can beat your BFF.

Let's call my friend A. A heard that I was talking crap about her and is now ignoring me. Another girl heard I was talking crap about A to the guy A likes because I want to make myuself look better. She said it's obvious I like him because I flirt with him all the time. I said I flirt with all my guyfriends. The problem is A is ignoring me. I feel betrayed because someone told her this when it's NOT true. Shouldn't a good friend ask me about it, not just tell me about it and give me the cold shoulder? I've had problems with A before. Should I stop being her friend, especially since there are obviously trust issues?

 

Hey! Just talk to A, you guys seem to have communication problems, so I bet as soon as you both talk this out you'll be friends again. and if not, than at least you will have tried. good luck!

I love this article! I think a best friend is someone who accepts you, helps you through an forgives you for your mistakes. They are like your light house in a crowd and (from the article) you love them more than they'll ever know!

"A friend is someone you can do nothing with, and enjoy it"

"A friend is someone who knows the song in your heart and sings it back to you when you have forgotten how it goes."

"Everyone hears what you say, Friends listen to what you say, Best friends listen to what you don't say."

Thank you, Girls Life, for this great article!!! Smile Smile
