Everyone has their own niche, their own group, their own people. Whether you are an introvert or extrovert, you have people to lean on and who will be there for your best interest all throughout life. There are the quiet friends, the outspoken friends, the friends who let you lead them, and the friends that are always there. Then, there are the blunt friends. These ones are the best...at least mine are.
1.) You never have to worry where you stand with them.
If you tick them off or do something you shouldn't have, you'll know. They'll express their concerns and frustrations with you without hesitation. After all, no friendship can succeed without honesty and openness.
2.) They are honest...sometimes too honest, but still, honest.
They'll tell you if that shade of lipstick doesn't work with your outfit or how you're being stupid running back to that guy that broke your heart. They never fail to tell you what they think of your life and how your living it. And, to you, it matters what they think. They do know you best.
3.) They have the softest hearts...
While they are the most blunt people you've ever met and have the hardest exterior, they are the ones that feel the deepest. They'll cry with you and feel things deeply.
4.) They'll tell you what you need to hear...
Even when you don't want to hear it. Best friends know best and the blunt kind won't sugarcoat anything. Whether you're making bad life decisions or that lipstick doesn't go with your outfit, they'll tell you.
5.) They'll never talk behind your back.
Sure if your best friend group is made up of 3 or 4 gals, then they might share concerns with those in the group. But you can bet that they'll say the exact same thing to your face.
So thank those friends who do these things for you. They will shape your life in drastic ways. I know my blunt best friends have...
