If you have had the chance to watch "Stranger Things" on Netflix, then you have had the pleasure of meeting Barb, Nancy's best friend that she truly took for granted all because some cute boy gave her some attention for a few seconds. I know that i am not the only person who was upset when watching Stranger Things and learning Barb's fate. Although she did not play a major role in the entire story. She was a great friend to Nancy, and is definitely what you should aspire to be as a friend. Here are a few moments in which Barb set the BFF standards high.
1. When she called Nancy out for being oblivious to obvious signs
We know we have all felt this way when our one friend was dealing with a boy/girl we really just did not think was good for them at all.
2. Overexaggerating on how this new flame would help social status
Come on we have all been there cheering our friend on to go after the popular guy/girl because we knew it would broaden our horizons
3. Calling Nancy out for being paranoid
4. Going to hangout with people you don't know just to support your friend
Honestly you're freaking out, but you don't want your friend to know that because they are freaking out.
5. When she wanted Nancy to really think about what she was about to do
Honestly there are so many times you can think of when you wanted your friend to understand that what they are about to do is not like them, and they should not try to change for a boy/girl. But in the end they don't listen to you so you just stand there hurt and confused
