The Best Friend Calculator

Are you and your friend inseparable? Are you always there for each other? Or is your friend a bit unreliable and flaky? Will they stick up for you when you're not around or do you think they're mostly just gossiping about you?

Use the Best Friend Calculator to find out just how good a friend they are! Give us your honest answers and the calculator will determine how great a friendship you have.

Think carefully about the questions and answer as honestly as you can so the calculator can give you a true answer.

You're out shopping with your best friend and you've just tried on what you think is the most fabulous dress ever! Whilst it is beautifully cut it's not the most flattering on you. Does she:

Tell you that you should take it off as quickly as you put it on and pass it back to the changing room attendant!

Tell you it's not ideal and she's seen another dress in the shop that she thinks would look amazing on you

Suggest that you still haven't been around to all the shops and you may find something better

Tell you the dress doesn't look great but only because she secretly wants it for herself!

Tell you to buy it straightaway as it will make her look better when you wear it out

Your friend is a real party animal and for her birthday she wants to have a big night out. The only problem is it's straight after work on a weekday and you have an early start the next morning. You ask if it's ok to just come for a couple of drinks and not stay out all night. Does she:

Say that she's delighted that you're coming out and understands completely that a late night when you have work the next morning isn't great

Say she's pleased you're still going to be celebrating with her but explains that you'll be the only one leaving early

Seem a little disappointed but hides it and keeps you in the loop with the plans for the evening

Act a bit annoyed and says if it's too much trouble not to bother coming at all

Shout at you for being boring and asks why you're even friends if you're so different from each other

Your boss has been giving you a really hard time lately, you're feeling stressed and need to have some fun so you call your friend after work to tell her about it. Does she:

Tell you to get changed quick, she's picking you up in 5 minutes to go out and let your hair down at the local karaoke bar

Ask if you want to watch the latest romantic comedy at the cinema to get your mind off things at work

Suggest she can meet you for a walk in the park but she has to be home before 9pm

After listening to you talk about your problems, suggest you meet up for a coffee to talk about hers

Before you can even tell her what's on your mind she's already taken this opportunity to bombard you with all her issues

You haven't seen your friend for a week or so because she's always busy. You've made plans for the cinema. Does she:

Text you beforehand to sort out which film you'll see and arrive 10 minutes early

Arrive on time, having already sorted out snacks for you to guzzle during the film

Turn up in the nick of time but you've missed the trailers

Ring you at the last minute to say she'll be late but you can meet for a drink later

Let you down and you don't see her for another fortnight

You've just been given some bad news; you decide to share it with your friend. She:

Completely understands what you're going through and offers to come over

Understands your concerns because she has been through something similar herself

Thinks you're overreacting but tries to make you feel better

Doesn't really understand what you're going through

Laughs it off and tells you to get over it

You've just been offered a promotion at work with a pretty hefty pay rise. You're in the mood to celebrate and you call your friend. Is she:

Over the moon for you and insists on meeting you straight from work for a celebration

Delighted for you and says you'll have a toast when you see each other at the weekend

Genuinely pleased for you but at the same time envious. She could really do with a bit more cash each month

Attentive to your news but then goes into great detail about how she would earn more but there just aren't the same opportunities where she works

Clearly jealous and mutters through baited breath that she's really happy for you but rushes off the phone as fast as she can

You confided in your friend that you and your other half are going through a rough patch but although you're a bit upset you're sure you'll get through it. Does she:

Not tell a soul and offer her shoulder to cry on if you need it

Mentions to your close friends that you may need a bit of girly time but doesn't go in to details and arranges a night in with the girls

Send a text to your other close friend to tell her but you don't mind too much as you'd already called to talk to her about it anyway

Decide to tell anyone that is interested that you're leaving your boyfriend

Immediately call around all your friends and tells them your moving out as your boyfriend has been unfaithful
