How I Stay Chill When My Friends Mess Up

Last week, I watched my best friend accidentally dump coffee on my favorite shirt. My first reaction? Total frustration. But then I realized—showing love isn’t about being perfect, it’s about showing up, even when things get messy. Here’s what’s been helping me keep it real: • I make time for my people, even if it’s just a quick chat or sharing a snack. Those little check-ins matter. • I try to accept my friends, quirks and all. Nobody’s perfect, and that’s what makes us interesting. • I let the small stuff go. Not every slip-up needs a big talk—sometimes, you just grab a clean shirt and move on. • I show I care in small ways, like sending a text or helping out when someone’s having a rough day. How do you show up for your friends when things get a little chaotic? #relationships #friendship #selfgrowth #Health #MentalHealth
