Why Best Friends Are Important

Thank you for always being there.

Why Best Friends Are Important
Sophie Sajdak

Everyone has that one friend they can tell anything and everything to. They know all the dirt about us, but still loves who we are as a person.

1. They Know Too Much

My best friend knows way too much about me to ever allow us to not be friends. There are lots of secrets that only those best friends know and lots of crazy memories. Only my best friend could bring up something from the past that will have me laughing for days. Basically, my best friend has more than enough dirt to blackmail me.

2. Friends For Over 12 Years

So much time has passed, and I wouldn’t have wanted anyone else beside me throughout all of the experiences. There’s a saying that if you’re friends for over seven years, then you’re going to be best friends for life. Even being 63 miles away at different colleges, she never fails to still be there for me when I need it the most.

3. The Only Person I Trust

There is no one else that I would confide in other than my best friend. They know more about me than anyone else on this planet and I’m okay with that. They always have your best interest in mind. They care about you and only want what is best, even if they get mad that you’re texting that one boy who doesn’t deserve you again. No matter how many times they yell at you, they just want you to be happy and they continually tell you over and over again.

4. Knows Me Better Than I Know Myself

Whether it’s little motivation texts when you need them the most or even little inside jokes, they’re always there at the right time. Even driving in the car and they play the song that you wanted to hear, but just couldn’t think of the title. Or shopping at TJ-Maxx and they find a super cute top that they know you will love. They can always tell when you’re in a bad mood before you even talk to them

5. My Person

Who else would take their time to drive around eating cheap breadsticks while listening to break up songs from the early 2000s with you? Who else would have 4 am phone calls because you can’t stand being alone for much longer. And it always seems that the two of you are always going through the exact same things at the exact time; always floating in the same boat!

Through it all, you both continue to support each other, and that’s true friendship. So thank you to my best friend for everything you do!

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
