No matter how much a friend may be annoying you at the time of your fight, you'll likely end up being good friends again, so avoid dissing her to mutual friends. Imagine how your friend will feel when she hears the terrible things you said about her. You know you didn't really mean them, but she won't. The problem with fighting with a close friend is that she knows all your vulnerabilities. And you have something on her, too.
Friendships are based on trust, so play fair.
No mud wrestling. When guys fight, it's often loud and it may get rough, but it's usually quick and clean. They don't overanalyze and they don't use clever, slippery words. After the blowout, they shut it down and go out and shoot some hoops together. In short, they get over it.
