A mother-daughter relationship is already one of a kind, but it takes on a whole other dimension when she's not only your mom but also your best friend.
1. You text each other about the most random things.
You never know what to expect when you get a text from her. It could be anything from just her checking into her text screaming about how she was the 8th caller on the radio station and won a free pizza.2. You have similar taste in men.
You often find yourself commenting to each other about the cute boy working the cash register at the grocery store. “Ooh, do you see that cashier over there, I think he’s flirting with you. He’s cute.”
3. You have a series on Netflix you have started together.
You only watch it with her and if one of you goes ahead in the series without the other, there will be hell to pay. But once you start the day watching it with her, you can't stop.
4. You are completely honest with each other.
You have no shame in telling each other when an outfit looks hideous. You’re also the go to “is there anything in my teeth” person on all occasions. And she’ll be totally straight up with you if she doesn’t like one of your friends, and you do the same to her.
5. You know what the other one wants to drink on a night out (or in).
You are both completely confident that you could order each others drinks on a night out. “Yes, she’s going to have the house cab and I’ll ha-“ “She’ll have a vodka cranberry.”
6. You have no filter around her.
You say whatever comes to mind whenever when you are with her. Besides, she’s not allowed to judge you, she raised you.
7. You know exactly what to get her when Christmas rolls around.
You’ve been shopping so many times together, it would be impossible not to pick up on her “oh well this is very nice, I like this” hints. And pretty much anything you like, she likes too, so it’s not hard to find the perfect gift.
8. You hang out with the same people.
You may be 30 years apart in age but when her friends come over, you join the party and when your friends come over, she joins yours. If my house is your house, my friends are your friends too.
9. You make some stupid decisions together sometimes.
You encourage each other to do silly things just to keep it interesting on your daily endeavors. Hey, it sounded like a lot of fun at the time.
10. There is no one you would rather spend your Saturday night with.
You would gladly give up your night on the town to chill with your mom binge eating and binge watching Netflix. After all, she is the coolest person you know, what better way to spend a Saturday night than with your best friend.
