Best friends .. not so Best :| .....?

To Me From Her:

You can be rude and hurtful when u say things, sometimes you care too much bout wat ppl tihink of you.. just sometimes but still, and you can be veryannoying and when ppl ask you to stop you just keep going on and on...





.............................





To Her From Me:



i think you are the same about the annoying thing... i dont lke how you say im mean to my mom we are just joking.. me and my mom talkked bout that the other day and how its how we joke .. i dont like how you get in the center of cheerleading, like you like to be right up front ever time and i also think u get offended to easy.

My first advice when you talk is to listen carefully, don't interrupt and don't get defensive.

Second, try to turn things around in a less negative way. Instead of saying %26quot;I don't like when you...%26quot; try saying, %26quot;sometimes when you ________ I feel ______%26quot;



Be aware that when you're bothering someone and they ask you to stop, then stop. Try to take what your friend says as constructive criticism rather than she's bashing you or putting you down.



Best of luck to you!
