A good friend should be able to tell her friend anything.  If you really feel that she is making herself look bad, then it might be a good idea to let her know that you care about her and voice your concerns in a tactful manner.  She might not react well as it sounds like she gets validation through her actions.  But it might get her to start thinking about why she feels the need to advertise her personal life.

Don't stop for being her friend it's your foundation... if your intention is good and clean then show it to her. Enjoy the moment you're with her, listen to everything she wants to share with you, it's a good start ;-)

you should go straight to your friend and tell her before it gets out of hand.

tell her that her bahavior is making you uncomfortable, she doesnt sound like a good friend who should be more considerate of your feelings...

My advice is that you DON'T become one.  Why sink to that level?\n\nWhy not tell you friend what you are seeing in her behavior and talk about it?  If she won't talk about it, she isn't acting like a friend in my opinion.\n\nThe solution to b*tch behavior is NOT to become one yourself.  That solves nothing at all.  It may make you feel good, briefly, but \nit costs you a lot.   In my opinion, it costs way too much.\n\nBest of luck!

she is your friend but aparently she cares tooo much about herself..so much that any little thing u say she takes it as an insult ffrom you to her...when she says somethin like that u shoud quickly tell her, " i wasnt talking bout you, your make up looks cool and ur my best friends if u looked bad i would tell you" and tell her u were just giving an opinion ...but dont let her bit*h at you...because if thats what she does you may consider getting a New BEst frieNd

You cant be honest with someone who cant be awake to what her actions have caused!!\n\nAll actions have consequences is one u can say!! She isnt a child, she needs to face up to what she has done.. you sugar coating it wont help hun!!\nA true friend will tell her how it is then be there for her regardless of how things go down!!\nFriends have to beable to be honest!! If she cant handle it then she is a bigger idiot than i first thought!~!\n\nGood luck!

Tell her the truth... It will hurt but it is better than being fooled...

it depends on how old you are, and how well you know her.  if you want to tell her, there's no reason you shouldn't, if you break it to her in a nice, polite way.\nfor example, don't go up to her and say, "hey, you have really hairy arms.  everybody's making fun of you.  you should shave or something, 'cause, people think it's gross."  instead, say it to her in a gentle way, and make sure that there aren't other people around, that would just embarass her more.  try just telling her that there are a couple of people making fun of her, you think it's wrong that they are, and just wanted her to know.  if you're nice enough, you might get a new friend!  however, if you're one of the people making fun, don't do it anymore, but don't say what i said above, because that would be lying, and that is bad.  tell her the truth, in a nice way, and everything should be fine.

Well you and your friend put your foot into your mouths,shame on you ha ha ha ha,but it is fix able......Offer her a gift,take it over to her house and say your sorry,suck it up! \n\nA nice gift to offer her,given she tried to explain her problem,would be a gift of rock salt deoderant,it's amazing for just this type of problem,you can buy them at any health food store,and they are only a couple dollars. She will think you actually took the time to think about her,and the problem she tried explaining to you when you made fun of her.

There are some good ideas posted after this, but the better way is to simply TELL HER.  Like, "I feel stupid approaching you like this, but I'm taking the risk becasue you are so...(fill in your own reasons)."

she has a bad issue and getting friends i bet? sweetie you just have to slowly slack from her, so she can get the hint, and also tell first and see how she acts by telling her how you feel about the friendship you both have. tell her that to listen to u for a moment and let her know. u seem sweet to let a friend hurt you. be sweet and don't stoop to her level.be straight foward. if he doesn't work and she bitch at you. then she is not a true friend. you can find better.

you need to tell your friend how she is making you feel. besides being on the computer, how is it that she makes you feel like you are being treated poorly. what she is doing may not be on purpose. sometimes people do or say things unthinkingly or because it is what they are used to having done to them and it becomes 2nd nature . \n\nafter speaking with her- if she does the ugliness again- at that moment say- when this happens, it makes me feel like such and such. after pointing out a good example of the behavior you do not like and she continues to do it- terminate the friendship. say. ya know i really like you alot as a friend but i cannot tolerate you treating me this way. good luck, best wishes and no hard feelings but cya later

It might be over simplifying, but I'd say your friend is looking for some attention.  Something may be seriously lacking in her life that she feels the need to lay something like this on her friends.  I wouldn't end the friendship for her lies, look to what need might make her pull something like this.  Know that once she actually started this lie in motion, she may not know how to go about getting out of it.\n\nIf you believe that she is truly your friend, the best course of action may be to just let it slide.  Don't bring it up, don't give it any more credence when she does, just nod and change the subject.  If it turns out to be true, you can say you didn't want to talk about it because it hurt, but if it really isn't true, then she will be grateful to let the whole thing drop.\n\nThe bottom line is do you care enough for her to let this go?  Or would you get some sort of satisfaction out of calling her on it and making her life hell?  Young people do stupid things sometimes, along these lines, and it shouldn't have to be something they pay severely for.\n\nYou might never do something this stupid, but I'm sure that you have other shortcomings - and you can't expect anyone in your life to forgive yours if you're not willing to forgive theirs.\n\nAre you really friends?  Weigh your options.  and good luck.
