Some of my best friends dont even know all of me,they only know part of my


Question Posted Monday July 25 2011, 7:00 am

I have some really close guy friends and they dont even know all of me, i have been hanging out with them for about five,six or seven months, we are all very close and tell each other everything.
The thing is,they think i am full on tomboy, they think i am a gamer, love horror movies and dress like a guy and they are completely right,that is me but i also like playin around with makeup with my friends and talkin about guys and dressing up and getting pretty when going out for something special like going out for dinner at a restaurant.
I feel that if they know i am like this aswell they might not like me and will be different around me,
i am a tomboy on the inside but i am a mix between a girly girl and a tomboy on the outside.
I just want to them to act and feel the same around me,
Please help!

well if they are your true friends, they'll listen to what you have to say and they'll support you.

so my best advice for you is just be honest with them. i think the easiest way is to surprise them. Next time you hang out with them, wear a dress and curl your hair and wear makeup. It will surprise them but it gives you a chance to show the other half of you.

What's the point in having friends if you can't even show them the real you. You're only showing half of you.. so obviously they aren't your true friends because you're obviously too scared to be honest with them. If they are your true friends, you will have the guts to show them the other half of you. And if they are true friends, then they will support you.

If they start making fun of you, well you just have to remember... they're guys. Guys will be guys. I can already predict that they will tease you in some way. But thats just how guys are... So don't feel bad if they start teasing you. There's a difference between friendly teasing, and actually making fun of you.

If they tease you a little, just playfully laugh along, smile, and say "this is the other half of me. I'm not just a tomboy. I'm a girl and girls just want to have fun!"

If they don't like you anymore, or act differently because you're showing your feminine side.. then screw them. They aren't real friends if they can't accept the fact that you're a girl and like girly things.

In fact, they should EXPECT you to have a girly side. Most guys who have tomboy girl friends except the girl to have a girly side too. Its just a matter of if the girl has got the guts to show it or not.

Be brave and strong. show them the real you. :)

Hi(: Well to start off, I'm a guy. And I have a few 'Tom-Boyish' friends.

But, to answer your question, if you are really good friends with them & trust them, just tell them that sometimes you want them to treat you like a girl. They will understand. Just tell them that sometimes you just want to talk, or do something besides playing video games.

Also, you always can go to a few of your girl friends to play with make-up or talking about guys. So just find a balance that is comfortable for you between being a tom-boy, and being a girly girl.


Overall, like I said, if they really are true friends, they will definitely understand. And treat you like a guy sometimes, but then realize that you are a girl & want to be known as a girl sometimes and treat you like a girl.

Well, I hope this helped!(:
