In This Article:

Seriously, he will change your life. Whether you need someone to offer a second opinion or to make you feel safe, a guy best friend is essential.

1. Less Drama

This is pretty obvious. When your best friend is a guy you don't have to worry about him taking your clothing or jewelry. He is never going to be into the same people that you are. When you have issues, he will always be there (even if it's 3 a.m.) to provide sound advice. Guys are also often straight-to-the-point and can resolve any conflict you have with them in minutes. With guys, you are never going to be stuck arguing about petty stuff.

2. Best Hugs

There is something so comforting about a hug from your guy best friend. When you are going through a rough time, it is nice to be wrapped up in the arms of someone who cares about you and wants you to be okay. A second perk is that guys also radiate a ridiculous amount of heat, so he is there to warm you up. It's comforting to know that you always have someone to lean on...literally.

3. Sound Advice

Guys provide non-biased answers and conclusions to your problems. They generally don't care about the details of the situation, they just want to resolve it. A guy will tell you to get over yourself and move on. They will be a level-headed confidant when you're making a big deal out of nothing. They offer solutions that you may not have thought of otherwise.

4. Feeling Safe

Having a guy best friend essentially means that you have a full-time bodyguard. He is there to walk you to your car if it's late and you feel unsafe. He makes sure that you make it back from parties and into your bed. He can scare away other guys if needed and will make sure no one touches you. He is there to help you stay safe and get you out of sticky situations.

Those are just a few reasons why guy best friends are the best! I hope you can relate to at least one of these points if you have a guy best friend in your life. If so, leave a comment below!

Everyone who is in college right now, or has ever been, knows the struggle of pulling in the strings at the last second. It seems impossible, and you have to do a LOT of things in order to assure your future for the next semester.

April Ludgate, historically, is a very annoyed person, and she doesn't hide it. Of all the times that I binged and re-binged "Parks and Rec," her attitude relates more and more to me.

Ask friends of mine to name a quality about me, and one a lot them will point out the fact that I am almost always smiling. I like to laugh and smile -- not to quote Buddy the Elf in April, but smiling is my favorite! It is probably my favorite go-to expression. However, what a lot of people do not see is that I have my down days. I have days when smiling and laughing is a real struggle, or when I have so much on my plate that going out of my way to behappy takes more effort than I have stored in me. Be it a symptom of college and growing up or a facet of life, I cannot always be content.
