Fighting with my bestfriend

Okay so what I want to know is, is it normal to fight with your bestfriend once or twice a day? Not physical fights but verbal. Yes were girls for any one who wanted to know. I mean its everyday, we always make-up and shes the first person I go to if i have an issue and she comes to me with hers. We tell eachother everything and by everything i mean EVERYTHING! She is my bestfriend and always will be. BUT what im asking is, is it normal to fight with your bestfriend? And somethimes its over stupid shit (sorry). PLEASE HELP ME! Should I stay friends with her? Does all bestfriends fight? Is it normal?

    It's totally normal. I have had my share of girl drama. Through middle school and high school I went through TONS of best friends. I could consider friendships so intense as a teenager, when you stop being 'best friends' with someone, it's like breaking up with a boy friend, because you two are so close. I know it's not what you want to hear, but you two might grow up and not be the same people that you were when you two first started being best friends. This is when a friendship might end- or simply change. And if you two are fighting a lot now, one of you may get so sick of the other and may give up on the friendship.

    The best way to deal with this before the friendship is totally ruined from constant arguing is to hang out with other people. Spend a day with another friend you haven't talked to in a while or stay home and watch movies with a sibling or someone else. Get some time away and you will be giving the friendship a breather and a opportunity to forget about the last thing that bothered you about her.

    But know, if that doesn't work, it's not the end of the world. If you two do stop talking, chances are you will end up being friends later. And remember time heals everything. Some time away whether it takes months or years, friends who were close before always have memories and probably will be willing to put the past behind them and start over when you are older. :) Hope this helps!

    I fight with my best friend everyday, and we are still best friends. Sometimes I wish we didn't but it always works out in the end.

    When you're younger ... yes, it's normal.

    As you mature, you may find that small stuff doesn't get as dramatic as it use to.

    My question for you: do you have another close friend or does she? For females, even numbers work out well: odd numbers don't. Guys have their own patterns concerning other matters. I'm thinking maybe a third friend is involved. And I could be dead wrong....

    I was like this with my bf, we use 2 fight all the time just over stupid stuff, then we would make up and fight again over some other stupid crap. My other friends/family told me it wasnt normal but I didn't care it was just "our thing" most of the time I wasn't actually mad at her, I just wanted to know she cared. Untill she got sick of all the fights and now we are no longer friends :( if it was up to me I'd me back friends with her but now she doesn't even want to know me. We haven't talked in about a month now and tbh I miss her like crazy. But she has no intrest of being friends again cause shes says whats the point? So just be careful. You might lose her.

    sure, friends fight, then make up. but fighting every day is alot. maybe you two should see each other a little less for awhile.
    she doesn't even have to realize you are doing it. just let some time separate the two of you and see how that goes. sometimes being too close you get on each others nerves.
