my best friend eats with her mouth open?!?
it is REVOLTING. me and my other best friend got up enough courage (cos it is actully pretty hard) to tell her a few years back, but SHE STILL DOES IT. it actually makes me feel sick and we're still at high school so that means i have to watch it everyday in the canteen. every once in a while (once or twice a week) i'll say to her: "eat with your mouth shut!!" but like once and she JUST KEEPS DOING IT. she has a brace so sometimes she makes up the excuse 'my brace is too big for my mouth so i cant eat with it shut.' well im sorry but that is bullsh*t. my other best friend also has a brace and she eats perfectly politely. i dont know what to do!! ive told her so many times but she wont stop nad its really starting to really really get to me and make me feel ill! shes quite sensitive, so i dont want to hurt her feelings. what shall i do???

Errr, well if you keep telling her that and she refuses to eat with her mouth shut Idk what you can do really, That's gotta be nasty thoughh tell her she can cover her mouth with her hand while eating or look away while eating or tell her to force herself to eat with her mouth shut and say if you ate with your mouth open all the time and she had to sit there in disgust watching you and pointing it out hoping you to stop doing that how would she feel? and tell her she might be embarassing herself around others who can see too and it's not very polite and people with braces can do it, I understand if it might hurt her to do it since braces do really hurt people's mouths while eating, how long has she had these braces? If she just recently got them then that's the reason why she might have to eat with her mouth open in order to feel comfortable and go through less pain , probably like 2 weeks after it'll stop hurting and she'll probably stop doing it, mention that to her too. Good Luck hope I've helped ! :))

properly, there is particularly no thank you to tell her with out hurting her emotions. you in simple terms could do it by using fact if that's that obtrusive to you, different individuals are seeing it too. So, %. a time, in inner maximum and in simple terms tell her. She'll thank you for it as quickly as she gets over the preliminary embarrassment. No solid thank you to do this. in simple terms make it lite, not love that's a nationwide catastrophe, in simple terms a speedy ingredient. Then drop it and don't convey it up back till she maintains to consume together with her mouth open, then gently remind her.

Easy. Just say "I'm gonna sit over there until you finish eating, because it makes me sick watching you should eat with your mouth open. Don't worry, I'm still your friend. And when You've finished eating I'll come back and join you."

Tell her you'd like to sit somewhere private to eat with her until she doesn't have problems with her brace and can eat with her mouth closed.

i think you've done all you can without being mean. you pointed out the problem to her multiple times, and she refuses to stop. you could tell her that you're not going to sit with her if she keeps eating with her mouth open, but she's your best friend so that wouldn't be very nice. maybe you could get a guy to tell her, maybe then she's listen. if not, you can try sitting next to her and not across from her so that you dont have to look at her

I hate that! My friend does the same thing!
Take a picture of her doing it oneday, and make a collage for her birthday.
Or show her this question and all of it's answers. Girl, you've got to stop before someone posts a pic on myspace.

okay tell her politely once...then if she doesnt listen tell her really politely that it looks akward and not nice/disgusting....
show her once (by eating yourself with your mouth open) how it looks...
if she still doesnt listen get a hot boy in your class to tell her that it doesnt look good......
and if you cant do that tell her how you heard some hot boys in you class saying that your friend was really awesome/pretty/hot but she looked sick when she was eating......im sure she will get her bad habbit fixed then!!
hope i helped!! :)
anyway thanks and have a good day :)!!!~

tell her that you don't want to be mean about this and tell her straight up chewing like that bothers alot of people and that its really disgusting to see what she's eating being chewed up like that and if she doesn't listen,use force.

well, just forget about that..
come on, she's your best friend.like it or not.
you decided to be her best friend for a reason, don't you?
nobody's perfect, and we all know this.
not necessary your best friend has to be the perfect person, we are all humans! we make mistakes, so, forget about this, or try to..
then you probably loose her and you may miss her..

Just talk to her again, and say how much it is bothering her, then after she understands make a joke with her and get her laughing, then if she does it again, remind her. She should understand, and yes, it is annoying when people do that!!!!!!!!!!!
