<\/p>\n

Whoever said honesty is the best policy clearly had buns of steel. Being honest with your home girls can be pretty difficult sometimes, but like any relationship, a lack of it can cause bad vibes and ultimately harm your friendship. So when should you serve the T with your BFFs?<\/p>\n

1. If they\u2019re dating the wrong person.<\/h2>\n

And I don\u2019t mean just because you find them a bit obnoxious. Telling one of you mates that you don\u2019t like their S.O. is super tricky, but if they\u2019re dating a scrub who is emotionally or physically abusive, then you need to speak up.<\/p>\n

2. They\u2019re being offensive.<\/h2>\n

There\u2019s nothing wrong with a bit of #banter, but sometimes it can get taken too far and end up hurting your feelings. So before you get revenge Blair Waldorf style, sit down and let them know how you feel.<\/p>\n

3. You\u2019re worried about them.<\/h2>\n

She\u2019s acting out of character, she\u2019s started drinking too much, she\u2019s acting like a hot mess. There\u2019s millions of reasons why you can worry about your friends, and it\u2019s the good friends that step in and ask if everything is a-ok.<\/p>\n

4. If you\u2019re not okay.<\/h2>\n

I\u2019m pretty guilty of bottling up my feelings, until three months later it all comes pouring out after too much wine. My friends always encourage me to tell them what\u2019s up, and opening up makes you feel a helluva lot better almost instantly.<\/p>\n

5. If they\u2019re being a bad friend.<\/h2>\n

Whether they\u2019re airing your Whatsapps, acting two faced, or they haven\u2019t had your back, that kind of behaviour is never cool. It\u2019s the friend\u2019s worth having that own up to their mistakes when you\u2019re honest with them.<\/p>\n

6. If you\u2019ve been a bad friend.<\/h2>\n

If you\u2019ve done something pretty snakey behind a mate\u2019s back, then you should own up immediately. Otherwise, they\u2019ll hear about it Chinese whispers style, and some serious damage can be inflicted on your friendship. <\/p>\n

7. If they have lipstick on their teeth.<\/h2>\n

Would Beyonce let Michelle and Kelly walk around with scarlet smiles? Hell no, because her posse was always on fleek.<\/p>\n

8. When they look fabulous.<\/h2>\n

Nothing give us gals a self-esteem boost like when one of your besties tells you how fly you look. Share the love!<\/p>\n

9. You catch their partner doing something dodgy.<\/h2>\n

And when I say dodgy, I mean you see them canoodling with that co-worker your mate \u2018had nothing to worry about\u2019. If you can refrain yourself from confronting the a***hole, you need to meet your bestie in person and break the news.<\/p>\n

10. When you\u2019re proud of them.<\/h2>\n

They got a new job, aced an application for a master\u2019s course or just did something that made you heart burst with pride. Send those positive vibes loud and clear!<\/p>\n
