Dating is great. Suddenly, you have this new person to try new restaurants with, to steal flannels from, or to cuddle when it gets cold outside. Sappy stuff aside, however, it's important to date someone you genuinely like, apart from the romantic whirlwind. It's definitely a cliche, but it's solid advice — fall in love with your best friend.

Here are 11 different signs you may have already found that person!

1. You have an abundance of inside jokes.

So many that often times when other people hear your conversations, they're extremely lost amidst references that no one else could begin to understand.

2. Car rides are never boring.

Whether it's jamming to Backstreet Boys or having long conversations about serious topics, for some reason, car rides are always a fun time. There's also something to be said for holding hands across the console.

3. You make fun of each other. Constantly.

It’s never too mean, but it’s always spot on. Somehow, you both have the uncanny ability to drag each other in the funniest way possible.

4. You can always make each other laugh.

This is always one of the best things about being together. You are constantly doubled over in laughter about something you guys said or did.

5. You're not afraid to embarrass each other.

Sure your boyfriend will tell all of his friends about the time that you rapped Justin Bieber's "Baby" the first time he said I love you, (true story, by the way) but don't worry. You will exact your revenge.

6. Date night isn’t always fancy, but it’s always fun.

You can go from seeing the symphony one weekend to eating fast food and watching Netflix the next. Either way, it's just a good time being together.

7. You tell each other everything.

The minute something happens, your first instinct is to shoot your boyfriend/girlfriend a text with all the details.

8. You are both so mushy in the most ridiculous way.

Maybe it's over the top to call your significant other ridiculous things like "my twin flame" or hug at least five times before leaving each other, but it's mostly for laughs and it's kind of endearing.

9. You’re always there to support one another.

Through thick and thin, you're always there on the sidelines cheering each other on. You can't help but being a giant dork about it either.

10. Even your fights are hilarious.

You may not fight a lot, but when you do, it's always funny. You always end up saying the most absurd things, and in the end, you are laughing so much that you forgot what you were even fighting about in the first place.

11. They just get you.

It may be cheesy, but it's true. At the end of the day, you guys just go together. You can't explain it, but you simply click.
