ADVICE | FRIENDS | FAB UP YOUR FRIENDSHIP

Be a better bestie

 
More times than not, we believe that we are good friends because we tell our BFFs how it is, whether they want to hear it or not. Sometimes it can turn out really good and other times we’re actually doing more harm than good. There’s a thin line between being a best friend and being a bossy friend. We’ve got some helpful hints on how to stick to the bestie side of the BFF boundaries.
 
Comic queen or mean girl
 
A lot of the time, we speak to our girlfriends as if they’re made of thick skin. Just ‘cause you think she can handle you saying that her legs look like tree stumps in the new dress she got for the spring fling doesn’t mean you have to say it.  There are some friends out there who can find the humor in a comment like that, but most of us take those words as personal attacks. Rule number 1: Always think before you speak because you never know when a silly, offhand comment can make her feel insecure about herself.
 
Demanding diva or suggestive sweetie
 
Between bouts of sobbing over her breakup, your bestie asks you what she should do to get her guy back. The problem? You never liked the guy in the first place and you have no idea how to tell her what you really think without being a total witch. Rule number 2: Tell your friends what you think they should do when they ask, but don’t force your opinion on them. Allow her to make up her own mind, come to her own conclusions and create her own solutions. 
 
R-E-S-P-E-C-T
 
Wanna know the ultimate way to ditch your bossy side and embrace your bestie? Rule number 3: Offer your BFF some good old respect. Speak to her the way that you would like to be spoken to, and treat her as you would want to be treated. Remember: There’s something special about her that sets her apart from any other girl out there—that’s why she’s your best friend, right?

Mod Mod Mod Well my BFFs older brother just recently went to war . But she's really close to him and misses him so much . He's 19 years old and she's worried he's going to die and is really depressed. I hate seeing her so upset. She hasn't seen him since September he could come home for Christmas like he was supposed to he was also suppose to come home a couple weeks ago but again he couldn't I really just want to help her feel better but I don't know how Help!




Hey girlie. I'm sorry to hear about your friend's situation. Family and friends involvement in the war is such a tough subject. For now, just be there for her. Support her and tell her to come talk to you whenever she's feeling down. Comfort is the best medicine.

MOD MOD MOD
So, I was on Facebook and my friend Casey said she was and at em and she hated me and I asked her why and she said she couldn't tell me. She said she never wanted to be my friend again. Now, I'm in tears and I'm scared of more drama and she's going to get everyone against me again. What should I do? Please help!

Hey girlie! If she has caused problems for you in the past, such as getting everyone against you, she is not really your friend, especially if she refuses to tell you why she feels the way she does. If she doesn't want to talk to you after another attempt, I suggest moving on. If any of them are your real friends then they will stick by you, no matter what she says.

MODMODMOD! My BFFs hanging out with this girl named Raemyn who hates me because when her BFF Sabrina got mad at her last year Sabrina was always talking to me so she thinks I was trying to steal her BFF. I told her that I wasnt takng her BFF but shes still rude to me and now my BFF is mean to me when Raemyns around. Ever since my BFF startd hangng out with Raemyn shes getng mad easy,she never tells me anythng,she rarely talks to me and shes always trying to get me to do her work so she can talk to Raemyn (but I dont do her work).Today she said that Im only her BFF at school. I try hangng out with other people but they all have their own BFFs or stay in at reces for skool clubs. My BFF still hangs out with me at reces but she just listen to music. I feel like I have no good frinds. what shold I do?




Hey girlie. What about Sabrina? It seems like she was a good friend to you. Your current BFF doesn't seem to be that great of a friend, so I wouldn't go out of your way to hang out with her. And I'm sure that there are other girls at school who will be a good friend. You just have to meet new people.

MOD MOD MOD At 10:00am this morning, my 15 year old Sister, Joanne and her BFFL, Debbie, went to the mall. My Mom dropped Joanne off and Debbie's Mom dropped Debbie off. My Mom and Debbie's Mom even talked for a wile. They both told Debbie and Joanne to be out of the mall waiting at 3:15pm. I even went with my Mom and they weren't there. We waited and waited, but they never came out, so we finally went in. My Mom told Me, my 7 year old brother Brandon and my 8 year old Sister, Bobbie, and Debbie's 9 year old Sister Melissa to look on one side wile they look on the other. There were no signs of them. Then, the adults called both of them and their phones were disconnected, so we had them paged and we asked around, no one knew where they where and they never came up. Soon, we gave up at the mall and the Parents dropped us home and they're still out looking. I'm worried, what if my Sister never comes back? I'm sitting in her room crying. How can I stop worry? Please help! ~Faith

 

 

Hey girl! I would definately encourage your mom to go to the police about this. The sooner the police get on it, the better chance they have at finding your sister and her friend. In the meantime, maybe try to keep yourself occupied by talking to a friend, or watching a movie. Even working on schoolwork. Please let me know how it goes... I'm thinking about you.

MOD MOD MOD MOD ok so this isnt my problem but im trying to help my friend. Kk so mt friend is a guy i will call him justin, and one of my closest besties stephanie. So stephanie and justin really liked eachother at the begining of the year in and they still do, but stephanie wants to wait till grade 10 to date but justin doesnt want to wait that long. should justin tell stephanie that he doesnt want to wait?? thanks a lot : )

 

 

Hey chica! I'd say that it's best for Justin to be honest flat out with her, rather than leading her on and hurting her down the road.
