10 Reasons Why Brothers Are The Absolute Best

"Sometimes being a brother is better than being a superhero."

– Marc Brown

Being the only girl with two brothers has taught me that: I am a daddy's girl, and I have two boys to always look out for me. My brothers have been through it all with me and they are my best friends. Having brothers is a huge blessing. Even though they know exactly what to do to tick you off, they also fill you up with so much love. Can't live with them, but you can't live without them! Here are the reasons why I think brothers are the absolute best:

1. They aren’t judgmental.

He’s known you for most your life or your whole life and knows the person you are. He’s seen it all. If he has anything to say, it’s most likely something you’ve heard several times before.


2. They always have your back.

Did a boy break your heart? Tell him to watch out. Is someone being mean to you? Tell them to run for the hills. Brothers are the best kind of bodyguards. They'll always look out for you.

3. They correct you when you’re wrong.


Did you make a mistake? Don’t worry, your brother will remind you to correct yourself and help you learn from his own mistakes.

4. They double as your best friend.

Have an issue you don’t want to discuss with your parents? Need a shoulder to lean on? Call your brother. He will always be there for you.

5. They say the funniest things.

Need some cheering up and nothing else works? Turn to your brother to hear the thing that will make you grin from ear to ear.

6. They tell it like it is.

If you're wearing an awful outfit or if you're wearing way too much makeup they will make sure to tell you the truth before you make a fool of yourself.

7. They made growing up so much fun.

The best memories you have are the ones with your brothers when you were kids. My brothers taught me how to get dirty and play sports and for that, I will be forever grateful.

8. You love to steal their clothes.

You probably have a ton of their shirts because they are so comfy... and because you just like to steal their stuff.

9. They put up with all your nonsense.

You’re outgoing personality probably puts them over the edge sometimes, but they deal with it anyways.

10. They love you unconditionally, no matter what.

Feeling ugly? Your brother will remind you just how beautiful you are. Friends may come and go, but you’ll always have your brother there to catch you when you fall.


Shout out to all of the amazing brothers out there! I love you, Alex & Tyler!

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
