So, everyone is constantly asking my friend Hannah and me how we do it, how we're just the goals of friends everywhere (honestly, it gets tiring sometimes).
I sat down with Hannah and we put together a little list. So, here's the answer for all our fans out there. Here's how to be best friend goals:
1. Skip the honeymoon phase
Just get straight to the weirdness - ugly snaps and too much information. I mean there's no point in holding back if you're going to be the best of friends.
2. Be together all the time
You're going to have to go everywhere together. Like to the point that if someone sees one of you on your own, they ask where the other one is because they are thrown off. Be together even when you aren't together physically/geographically - FaceTime is a thing.
3. Share everything
Clothes, food, makeup, beds, all of it (but especially pizza).
4. NAP
Nap together. Let me tell you, the level of friendship goals increases a ton when you can nap together.
5. Be a package deal
If someone asks one of you to do something, it's a given the other one is coming too. Duh, no questions asked.
6. Watch the same TV shows
So you can binge watch together while you're avoiding the rest of the world because everyone else sucks.
7. Have shared playlists
Trust me, it makes pregaming so much easier and way more fun (We have one called pre WHAT pre GAME and it is truly incredible).
8. Read each other's minds
Know exactly what the other person is thinking or going to say before they say it.
9. Be able to have a conversation without actually saying any words
Eye contact is key. And it really freaks people out too which is always fun.
10. Just make sure everyone and their mother knows you are each other's person
If you are genuinely best friends, it isn't that difficult. The vibes are usually given off immediately and everyone just gets it.
But in all honesty, I am so lucky to have the best friend I have, and I couldn't really imagine life without her.
There is no rule book on how to be a best friend. There are no lists or directions or manuals in existence that can tell you how you and your friend should be, this list included. But if someone came to mind when reading this, please please cherish them, and realize that you, too, are very lucky to have someone so special in your life.
Friends are important, don't forget to tell yours just how important they are.
