Your Best Friend Might Be Your Soulmate

No, we're not dating, but we might as well be.

Your Best Friend Might Be Your Soulmate
Nicole Infantes

Tina Fey and Amy Poehler, Jimmy Fallon and Justin Timberlake, and James Franco and Seth Rogen are just a few examples of the ultimate best friend goals. You can't have one without the other.

Having best friends is the best feeling in the world! You know there's always someone in your corner during the good and the bad. People are always on the hunt for their romantic soulmate, but I think finding a friend-soulmate is just as special. These people bring out the best in you and let you be your goofy self with no judgement!

You have your own language

Whenever other people are around you two, they hardly understand what you're talking about. There's just no time to explain all the stories and inside jokes, which leaves others completely lost. While you're crying from laughter, everyone else is wondering what they've missed. All you did was clap once and then the two of you burst into hysterics. When it comes to you two, words aren't always necessary to know what the other is talking about.

You feel what they feel

In your eyes, your friend-soulmate is the best human in the world! If you could control it, nothing bad would ever happen to them. But no matter what happens, you're there to talk to them, or just to listen. When they cry, you do, too, and when they're happy, so are you! Sometimes, you may even be more affected than they are. You have such a connection that some people even mistake you for a real couple.

You constantly tease each other

Just like siblings, you're always making fun of each other. Other people might think you're really mean, but you know that your friend actually loves you. However, no one else is allowed to say what you say to your best friend. At the end of the day, you can mock them for never being on time and they can mock you for taking your shoes off no matter where you are. You've learned to accept each other's weirdness, but not without cracking a few jokes first!

You're in each other's relationships

You guys are a package deal, and that means that when one of you is in a relationship, you both are! You know everything there is to know about the relationship. Sometimes you're the one texting their significant other. When the three of you get together, they may occasionally feel like the third wheel. Since neither of you are going anywhere, they just need to accept it.

You never judge each other

You trust them with your most embarrassing stories and they trust you with all of theirs. When it comes to the two of you, no topic is off limits: Even poop. You tell this person everything. Sometimes you even become each other's doctors, because going to the real doctor means there's something actually wrong with you. Nothing you tell them will gross them out or make them think differently of you. You may be dysfunctional, but you're dysfunctional together.

No matter what you're doing with your friend-soulmate, you always have a good time! You can't imagine your life without them, and you're always talking about what life will be like in the future. It's as if your friendship was destined to happen! Even if you don't see each other all the time, when you do, nothing has changed, and you pick up right where you left off. I'm still looking for my romantic soulmate, but I already found a few friend-soulmates along the way.

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
