My Bestfriend... Maybe


Question Posted Monday February 22 2010, 6:53 pm

Me and my bestfriend get in fights over the most stupid things! At first I think she's joking, but then I can see she's not! I really love her as my friend, but the fights make MY life worse! What should I do?

That sounds like me and my best friend! I tend to joke with her a bit and its hard for her to see if I'm joking or not. Talk to her about it...maybe suggest to her if you're really serious with me can you let me know. If you two are friends you should be able to tell her anything...and she should understand. This question makes me look at myself and I realize I need to change the way I joke towards my friends sometimes. I should be serious when I need to be serious in some situations! Great question!! :)

First talk to her. Tell her you love her as a friend but you guys gotta be able to talk to each other without getting into arguments.

Try figuring out why she gets upset about things so easily.

Whenever you guys do start to argue or get mad just stop. Change the subject or something. Eventually it'll get more normal. But just watch what you say for awhile and see what happens.

Hey,
I would tell her sorry right after you had a fight. That is always the best way to start.
Try not to say anything that you might know will make her a little upset, just be yourself and try to figure out what is making her upset.

Talk to her, tell her you would really like the fights to stop, then find a way so that both of you can agree to make things better so you two do not fight. If both sides are able to cooperate, you will easily be able to solve the issue. Tell her calmly that you love her as a friend, you want to be there for her, and that it is silly to fight over little things; you just want to get along like you used to.

If she is your best friend, I am sure a heart to heart talk will help and you will both be on the same level again. Tell her you are sorry, you didn't mean to offend her, and you would like the fights to stop.

Anyone can hear you, a true friend will listen <3
