We all need girlfriends! I can't stress the importance of female friends enough. I have always been that girl who gets head over heels in love and forgets about her friends. We all have a girlfriend who we see more when she is single than when she's in love. I will be the first to admit that I'm that girl, but as of lately I have learned the importance of my girlfriends. Friendship rocks and solid girl talk is good for the soul! Here are 3 reasons why you need girlfriends!

To Vent

Your boyfriend does not want to hear you complain or vent about the drama of your life. Sure he listens, but darn it he doesn't care. Your girlfriends probably have the same issues and can relate to what you are going through. Venting via conversation or journaling are great stress relievers. I get ideas for posts from my girlfriends. If your girls don't inspire you, then maybe you should find friends within your major or on your job. Sharing common interests with your girlfriends can push you all into the right direction.

For Advice

9 times out of 10 one of your friends has gone through what you are going through. Maybe you're too embarrassed to get professional help, scared about a pregnancy, stressed out over school, etc. No matter what it is you have to talk to someone. Your girlfriends, sisters, and cousins are great sources for advice and venting as previously stated. You need to let things out. You will drive yourself nuts trying to keep everything in. Pray about your situations and talk to someone you trust. Having friends to vent to can keep you from depression, suicidal thoughts, and boredom. Don't suffer alone or work so hard that you miss out on building lasting relationships. You need to have girlfriends! Who doesn't love a few hours of girl talk aka gossip!

Fashion Advice

Girlfriends are a great source for style advice. Of course, I want you to come back to Jasmine Diane and get style tips as well. Share some of these awesome post with your friends. No matter what who you are in life, affirmation and encouragement during shopping and getting dressed. I love getting dressed to go out with my girls. We blast the music and dance, while we pull out our party dresses, flat iron our hair, and slide on lipstick. The more the merrier! If you are bored with your wardrobe, go shopping in one of your girlfriend's closet for inspiration!
