1. Give Them Space

Whether you just had a heated quarrel with your best friend or the atmosphere has just been tense between the two of you, take some time for yourself and at the same time give them space. This will give you time to think things through and think of the best way to carry out your plan of action on how to win your best friend back. Absence of contact will also give your friend time to sort things out in her or his head, which will make the future conversation much easier since both sides would be able to elucidate their feelings.

Ask

2. Patch Things up

After taking some time for yourself, it might be time to converse with your friend in person. This can be your chance to express your concerns about the state of your friendship and share your true feelings in a calm and reasonable manner. Let your friend know why you felt hurt or why you suddenly feel distant because it's more than likely he or she didn't know the effects of their actions.

Ask

3. Hear the Other Side

Conversations are always between two people, so after your finish talking it’s time to hear the other side out without any interruptions. Try to understand their feelings too and put yourself in their shoes. If you make them feel like you completely understand their position and regret hurting their feelings, chances are that they will forgive you too and let go of their hurt.

Ask

4. Make Compromises

This would be the time when both of you make the mutual decision to make up and remain best friends or you would both realize that you just drifted apart. However, if you decide to make compromises and use this as an opportunity to strengthen your friendship, make sure to fix all disagreements between you so you can continue on with a clear mind.

Ask

Sunshine and blue skies bring positivity and joy and it's important for every woman to take full advantage of it. Even when stuck indoors, it's still possible to enjoy some good vibes. Check out these unique tips on how to make the most of the weather right at your home. Let's celebrate every beautiful day, no matter where we are.

5. Show Effort

Even after making up it’s important to nurture your newly restored friendship. So put more effort in your friendship by making new plans and communicating. Try to treat your friend like you would want your ideal best friend to treat you. However, don’t force anything and don’t pay excessive attention to your friend, it should all be natural!

Ask

6. Strengthen the Bond

In order to ensure that you won’t have a falling out again or feel distant from each other it’s important to strengthen your bond. So make your friend feel important and share things with them. Show them that you drew your own conclusions from the previous misunderstanding and are willing to learn from them.

Ask

7. Be Persistent

Even if you are not able to make up with your best friend at first, don’t just give up and be persistent. Your best friendship might be debased to a normal friendship, but don’t let go of the hope because if things go well for a while with just being friends, chances are that you will naturally take your friendship to a new level and become best friends again over time!

Depending on the situation friendships can be hard to fix, but that doesn't mean that there is no way out. What tips would you give to a person trying to win their best friend back?

  I lost my bestfriend in the situation where my bouyfriend had to come into it, because I was crying while my ex bestfriend was yelling at me, thing's went to hell and my boyfriend said some hurtful stuff and I should have never let him come into the situation , but anyways my ex bestfriend called me selfish and self centered and it all started out by her calling me a cunt.. she was playing but she wasnt, and I take that shit somtimes to heart because I was bullied my entire life.
