8 Things That Happen When Your Girlfriend Gets A Boyfriend

We've all been there. That moment your best friend comes running in to tell you they're "official". You cringe a little realizing that she'll be spending her Friday nights with someone else instead of watching Legally Blonde and eating mac n cheese with you... but I guess it was bound to happen someday.

Here are some things a girl goes through when her best friend gets a boyfriend.

1. You kind of get a boyfriend too

Here's the deal, bud.You date my best friend, you date me too. You better show up at her door with two bouquets.

2. But... you don't understand why they don't want you to go on their dates

Because that's normal, right? I'm just trying to embrace the third wheel.


3. They start to have inside jokes that don't involve you

Can't have everything.

4. You spend more time alone

It's to be expected. A little alone time never hurt anyone.

5. You frantically go searching for new friends

Okay, I'm bored... too much alone time.

6. You realize making new friends isn't that easy

Annnnnnd you can't find other people you can be weird around.

7. So then you spend even more time eating mac n cheese and watching Netflix by yourself

8. People ask you if you're okay

But even Beyonce got broken up with.

At the end of the day, you're best girlfriend will always be your girlfriend. Maybe you have to share her with someone else now, but it's not the end of the world... you're still the one she comes home to.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?
