You may not have wedding bands, but you probably have corny best friend necklaces.

1. Your parents ask about her when they call.

Not only that, but she has a standing invite to dinner every time your family comes to visit.

2. She buys you chocolate when you’ve had a long day.

Or sometimes just because. She always seems to know when you need a bag of peanut M & Ms or a carton of Ben & Jerry’s.

3. You have been on more dinner dates than you can count.

You most likely have a designated table at every restaurant near campus and she probably knows your order at each of them.

4. You guys each have a side of the bed.

Every time friends from home come to visit, the two of you inevitably wind up in the same bed. At this point you have sharing a twin extra long bed without someone falling out down to a science.

5. Galentine’s Day is a thing in your room.

Whether it’s a dinner date or eating ice cream and watching Netflix in your sweat pants, she’s definitely your favorite person to celebrate with.

6. You’ve sent out holiday cards together.

Since you live in different states and are therefore forced to spend the holidays apart, you take advantage of the time at school to ring in the spirit together.

7. She knows when you have a bad day.

And there’s no lying to her about it.

8. People refer to her as your other half.

People are shocked when they see you without her and you probably respond to each other’s names.

9. You have a go-to pose for pictures.

It’s been taken at parties, around campus and any other place you go together. You restrain yourself from posting every one of them on social media because let’s face it; you know you’re adorable.

10. She knows what music you like.

And you know every musician in her favorite band. Even though you don’t agree on every song, you have probably compiled a playlist of songs you can agree on.

11. You spend hours talking at night.

It seems like every time you should be going to bed early, something excruciatingly important – like presidential candidates or the kid that showed up drunk to class – comes up.

12. There’s a mutual understanding everything is shared.

Whether it’s food, clothes, or toilet paper, you know it will all even out eventually. You also don’t worry about germs because if one of you gets sick the other is doomed anyway.

13. You own at least one set of matching shirts.

And you have worn them in public together more than once.

14. She fills up your water bottle without you asking.

Most likely because she knows if she doesn’t you’ll ask her next time she walks by.

15. You don’t have to ask if you’re living together again next year.

Let’s be real, you’d rather live in a box with her than anywhere else without her.
