If you're like me, your best friend at college is like your sister. She's the first person there with a pint of Ben & Jerry's when a boy breaks your heart and the only person that can convince you to go out on a night that you were planning on staying in. When you went off to college some gravitational force pushed the two of you together and created the most unstoppable and dynamic duo. She is your person and you don't know what you would do without her. Here are some of the signs you're missing your college BFF as much as I'm missing mine.
1. You can't go a day without saying you miss each other.
If I haven't been in contact with my best friend in the past 24 hours, there's a 99% chance she is going to send me a text with an "I miss you" gif in the next 10 minutes.
2. Your bed feels half empty
All I want is to cuddle up with my best friend and have a deep conversation or a Netflix marathon while we drink hot chocolate.
3. You've been tagged in at least 30 relatable Instagram posts
My best friend never fails to find a hilarious post on Instagram that perfectly describes our friendship, boy problems, or our obsession with food.
4. You play "your jam" on a daily basis
As soon as I jump in my car I throw on either "Back to Back," "Blessings," "Sunday Candy," or "Bad Blood," just so I can feel a little piece of my best friend with me. Don't worry, I'm screaming the lyrics at the top of my lungs as we usually do.
5. You sit around wishing you could go on an adventure together
I miss doing even the most mundane things with you. Please drive four hours to go to Trader Joe's for trail mix with me. I promise we can get Chipotle after.
6. You actually miss hearing about the boy drama
BFF: "I deleted him on Snapchat. I am so done with him!"
Me: "I'm so proud of you. He's a jerk and you deserve so much better. I wish I could come over with Ben & Jerry's."
*One day later*
BFF: "You're going to kill me, but I added him on Snapchat again."
7. And hearing her cry about pizza at 2am on a Saturday night
If we order a large veggie pizza from Domino's it still follows our diet, right? As nice as it is to have a detox from the junk food, I miss laughing at my best friend while she cries about pizza.
8. You wish someone was here to motivate you to go to the gym
If I don't bring my sneakers home with me I have an excuse for not working out all break, right?
9. Nothing makes you happier than getting life updates
Me: "You're still laying in bed too?"
BFF: "I've only gotten up for food."
Me: "Okay, just making sure I'm not the only one."
10. You're already planning your trip to visit
I miss you a lot. I don't think I can take a full month away from you. I'll be there in four hours.
