The 7 Types Of Friends In Every Friend Group

Though roles in a friend group can be blurred, there are some friends you come across in every group.

1. The Mom Friend

We all know this friend — they're the first one you run to when you have a problem, the first one you run to for medicine, the one that will fight anyone and everyone on your behalf, and the one with the best advice for any situation.

2. The Loud Friend

This friend more than likely has that unique, loud laugh that can be heard from across campus. They also forget that indoor voices are a thing, and you probably have to remind them constantly to turn the volume down on their voice box. And they can't whisper. At all. But do you need someone yelled at, or do you need to ask your near-deaf professor a question? Have no fear — the loud friend is here.

3. The Quiet Friend

You'll usually find this friend on the edge of the crowd, inserting comments every now and then, but otherwise just observing. They're wallflowers, in a way. (Hah, get it? Because of the .gif? I know, I'm funny.)

4. The Animal-Loving Friend

This friend has an animal radar. They can immediately tell when an animal is near, and will run through, jump over, knock down, or otherwise bowl over anything or anyone that stands in the way of them getting to said animal.

5. The Extroverted Friend

Is the friend group bored? Turn to this friend, because they'll always have some spontaneous idea up their sleeve! Want that guy's number, but you're too afraid to ask? Don't worry, you've got the most outgoing wingwoman/man in the world by your side!

6. The Sporty Friend

Not only does this friend own the most extensive collection of running shorts, spandex, tank tops, tennis shoes, and other sports paraphernalia, this friend also has the natural ability to literally be good at any sport ever.

7. The Smart Friend

This friend is the walking encyclopedia of the group. You can always count on them to make the good grades, to be the source of knowledge, and to always be up for answering your questions. This friend is also either very humble or very arrogant about their intelligence. There is no in between.

birthday party

My birthday has never been my favorite holiday. I've found that I'm more excited to celebrate my friends' and family members' birthdays more than my own. I don't like being the center of attention, so I usually celebrate over dinner with a small group of family and friends. This way, I can enjoy myself naturally without feeling like I have to entertain everyone and make sure they are satisfied. In the past when I've had large parties, I was so nervous that people weren't perfectly content that I didn't enjoy myself at my own celebration.

College Informations

Most of us have already started the spring semester, and for those of you who haven't started yet, you suck.

It seems like coming back from winter break wouldn't really be a break all things considered, since we all come back to school and pick up right where we left off. We know exactly what to expect, yet we're unprepared every single time.

I'm serious

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.

CSU

I'm an anthropology major, and I love every minute of it. I couldn't tell you why, but I guess there's just something about studying different lifestyles that absolutely fascinates me. But anthropology majors definitely have our weird sides, especially when you go to a school that is filled with mostly Business and Bio majors. But us weirdos definitely have a lot in common, specifically these 16 things.

pale girl

Everyone has insecurities, that's just a fact. You didn't ask to be born this way. You didn't ask to inherit the one trait no one else in your family has. And you definitely didn't ask to be this ghostly white. But as soon as you've learned to live with it for a while (less wrinkles later on in life, right? right???) someone has to ruin it for you. They have to flaunt they're perfectly tanned body from Spring Break and hold their sun-kissed skin against yours. But I've had enough... here are the things that perpetually pale individuals are tired of hearing.
