Fashion guru, punching bag, unlimited call partner, shoulder to cry on -- what else can a friend do for you? These are few of the duties a friend can do. But what else can we do for a friend besides from being the rag to drag around?

We usually find ourselves giggling in coffee shops, hanging out at the mall, and having the sleepovers. But is it enough to be called a fabulous friend? Here are some tips to improve or have a better relationship with your friends.

• Admit the Humiliating Truth

Tell a friend about the Ungodly truth about yourself, it's a requirement mostly in women. Women can be mistrustful and unless you reveal the naked truth about your juicy past, a woman may never trust you. Invite a friend, grab some beer and confide! At first, it may seem awkward but after a while the trust will fill the air and the other will spill the sickest thing about him/her as well. Both having known the dirt of each other will help you encourage to trust one another.

• Dating her EX?

Remember to only date her EX if the following applies: 1. The relationship they had wasn't serious, no "I Love You's" involved. 2. The person you're dating isn't the recent one he/she had. 3. If he/she met someone else. 4. And make sure his/her "someone else" is much hotter than the EX. But it is better to avoid dating an EX. Even though your friend tells you that it's so over and it's okay, there will still be a question inside their head. They'll be asking themselves why you, and why not him/her. There will always be a comparison of why your relationship with the EX worked out, and not with them. You'll just end up hurting someone and will have to choose between a friend and a lover.

• Be the "Nice" Mirror

A lot of women usually ask if they gained weight or if they still look gorgeous. A lot of us would lie and say "Nah, you're in great shape" but knowing the truth that they did gain weight. A true friend should tell the truth even if it would hurt, but say it in a subtle way. And remember to offer to be the gym buddy or her stylist.

• Never Take Advantage

The difference between a comfy couch and making your friend a doormat is the way you'll be treating them. Don't take advantage of the person even if it's alright with them. Always make sure that it would still be a give and take relationship and not just take and take.

• Endure at least 10 hours Per Month to Hear Out Obsessions

Getting sick of the yada yada stories about the recent break-up, a new crush, work-related problems, or even tell you the detailed stories about his/her sex life? Next time tell your friend in a nice way that you like hearing things about what is happening with his/her life but you also would prefer to keep some stuff to their selves.

• Be the Air Bag during an Embarrassing Moment Instead of laughing, be the airbag that a friend would need. Try to lessen the trauma of embarrassment.
