We all have people in our lives who in one way or another, can be pretty mean.
Whether it’s a friend, a family member or the lady who does your eyebrows, they may have the tendency to speak without a filter. Their excuse? They say it because they care.
It’s hard to believe that tough love is a thing, but thanks to recent psychological studies, it turns out – it’s real.
Posted by LadBible, a video highlighting the effects of ‘mean friends’ has been going pretty viral lately.
And we are into it.
The video states that these so-called, ‘mean friends’ make you feel negative emotions only because they think it will prove beneficial to you. It’s always going to be that one friend who has no filter, no sugar coating and no will told back on telling it like it is.
So far, the Internet has gathered a number of reactions to the alleged study.
Some people did point out what needed to be pointed out.
Lol, you’re not wrong!
Come here, get a hug.
So does this mean every rude comment the waxing wali/eyebrow lady/random auntie makes is actually just hiding pure love and admiration? Total respect and care?
Well it sure makes it easier to frame it that way.
Haven’t seen the video? Take a look now!
Meaner Friends Are The More They Care
Let your mates know…??
