If your best friend roasts you daily, don't be offended, says psychology. Friends who playfully insult each other are 300% more honest and loyal. Research shows we should absolutely relentlessly unapologetically roast our friends. Contrary to belief, teasing isn't cruelty. It's often the glue holding bonds tighter. Playful jabs create laughter, a language only real friends understand. It builds trust because you know the joke comes from love, not from cruelty or envy. When each can laugh at each other without fear, it shows a foundation of deep respect. Psychologists say these small roasts reveal the safe space where honesty always lives. Strong friendships aren't built on fake compliments, they thrive on realness and trust.
