I think that my best friend Anna is a rare example of a person who expresses her feelings freely. We have been friends for many years and I see her almost every day. So I know what I am talking about. I mean I have enough evidence to prove that she is an open person. Or not to say open is to say nothing. I think she is too open about her feelings. If something is on her mind, she always lets people know about it whether they want it or not. For example, she tells people when something is bothering her, when something makes her feel excited, depressed or uncomfortable. She isn’t afraid to tell people about painful or embracing situations that she experiences. And I know that she always says what she means but not what other people want to hear. What’s more, she post a lot of personal details on Facebook and Instagram. I always took as that if we stopped being friends, I would still not as much information about her feelings and opinions as I do being her best friend and communicating with her every day.

I think that my best friend Anna is a rare example of a person who expresses her feelings freely. We have been friends for many years, and I see her almost every day, so I know what I am talking about. I have enough evidence to prove that she is an open person. To say she is open is to say nothing. I think she is too open about her feelings. If something is on her mind, she always lets people know about it, whether they want to know or not. For example, she tells people when something is bothering her, when something makes her feel excited, depressed, or uncomfortable. She isn't afraid to tell people about painful or embarrassing situations that she experiences. I know that she always says what she means, not what other people want to hear. What's more, she posts a lot of personal details on Facebook and Instagram. I always thought that if we stopped being friends, I would still know as much information about her feelings and opinions as I do being her best friend and communicating with her every day.
