Boost your bestie's self-confidence!



We all go through it: that yucky stage when we find our confidence taking a dive. From body probs to boy troubles, it’s easy for a gal to feel a li’l insecure. If you notice your chica’s confidence is down, cheer her up with these three easy ways to make her feel fab and make you a great friend!
Bring on the compliments
Every girl loves nice compliments and they can give an instant confidence boost. So next time you see your BFF rocking a cool new shirt or a darling hairdo, let her know how much you love it.
Encourage her
Letting someone know that you support them is one of the best ways you can make them feel positive. Why not make a huge sign with your friend’s jersey number on it and cheer her on during her next soccer game?
And if your gal pal mentions a new sport or activity she wants to try, be sure to give her the thumbs up and not put her or her idea down. 
Be thoughtful
Being a thoughtful and considerate friend will show your gal pal how special she is. If you notice your bestie is down in the dumps over her breakup, plan a sleepover filled with her fave movies, snacks and games to get her mind off of it.
Seems like she’s got a lot on her mind? Make sure to find time to have a convo with you chica if she needs someone to talk to or a shoulder to cry on.

By taking the time to make your bestie feel good about herself, she’ll surely do the same for you. It’ll also help you become a better friend and make your bestie bond even stronger.
