Be supportive
Do you know the wonders someone can achieve if they know that someone’s got their back? As a best friend, you should be your friend’s biggest cheerleader. Yes, your support can help your friend achieve their goals and reach huge milestones. So be supportive of each other, give each other good and sincere advice. And you know what, when she is too scared to jump, you can give her a little push.
Tackle big problems and projects together
When you are good friends you know each other very well, you know each other’s fears, dreams, strengths, and weaknesses, so when it’s time to tackle that big problem, you do it together as a team. Unless it’s illegal! LOL, a good friend wouldn’t want you to get in trouble! As you struggle together on a problem or a project your bond will become even stronger. So sometimes you don’t just need to give that push, you need to jump with her.
Never let anyone else talk bad about your girl
Best friends are like siblings. We all know the cardinal rule about siblings. Regardless of how much they fight, only they can say bad things about their siblings. If you say anything, those are fighting words. It’s the same for friends. Don’t let other people talk bad about your friend in front of you. Never let anyone else say or do anything with bad intent to your friends. You are each other’s strength, it will break your friend’s heart if they find out that you were talking about them behind their back. That’s not what a friend would do, that’s what a friendemy would do.
Be trustworthy…The secrets go with you to your grave
That is the most essential part of a female friendship because let’s face it girls have far more secrets than any guy could ever have. Having mutual trust is very important, a secret between friends stays between friends no matter what happens. Even if for some reason you drift away that doesn’t mean that now you are allowed to spill away the secrets. That is never allowed. The secrets will go to your grave with you.
Help each other become the best version of each self
That’s what friendship is all about, you bring the best out of each other. When it comes to being a better person, your friend will be your guide here. Your friends know you the best, they see all of your shortcomings. But love you anyway. Sometimes your friend will need to be brutally honest with you, but that truth will help you grow and learn from your mistakes. Because only then you will become the best version of yourself. So, help each other grow and touch the skies.
No Judgement Allowed
There should be no judgment in friendships. Being able to express your thoughts without the fear of being judged is one of the best parts of friendship. Your friends need to know that you will not judge them and can speak freely. That type of openness among friends allows the trust between friends to flourish.
Being a best friend is all about understanding your friend and being there for each other in times of need, either happiness or sorrow you share everything with each other. When you have a best friend in your life you always have a shoulder to cry on and a person to party hard with. So, if you haven’t met your best friend yet, go out meet people and your best friend might be waiting for you.
