If Your Boyfriend's Best Friend Is A Girl

It's not what you think it is, I swear.

What is a best friend? A best friend is someone you can trust and confide in. A best friend is someone you can lean on and expect to have your back when no one else does. A best friend is there for you when you have a bad day and need a person to vent to. That is what a best friend is.

For those of you who have one, you know what it's like to depend on that friend and how twisted your world would be if you didn't have them anymore. So, you have your best friends and your boyfriend has him, but what if his best friend was a girl?

Before you judge us, know that we, the girlfriends, are not the jealous type and we're not insecure. We are very comfortable with ourselves, but there's just one thing that drives us crazy and makes us wonder. When we have a bad day or we are upset, we expect our friends to comfort us, be real and honest, and maybe sometimes give us a hug when we need it. We also expect and hope for the same thing from our boyfriends. But what if she does that for him? What if she is his support system, his pick me up, and a hug when he has a bad day? Are you OK with that? Am I OK with it?

Like I said, we're not going to go through his phone and be nosey because that's not who we are. We care about him and honestly, it's not the fact that he has this best friend that's a girl, it's the fact that you want to be the female figure in his life that he depends on and goes to when he needs the comfort. Is that so wrong? So before you go and judge a book by its cover, realize that we're not here to rat on guys for having girls as best friends, we're here to share that it is not easy and is something that we will deal with, but something that hurts.

So what did you think I was going to write about? How are we just a bunch of jealous girls who want to control our boyfriend's friends? That we would rather have our boyfriends at home with us, rather than living his life? No. Like I said, that is not us and that is not who we are. So, do not be so quick to judge. It's like second grade when your best friend finds a new best friend and suddenly, you are left in the dark. You are happy for their happiness, but it still hurts that they forgot about you.

Best friend, we appreciate your kindness and we appreciate you wanting to be that best friend. We appreciate you and your kindness. We appreciate you devoting your time and patience because that is something that we will never forget. But best friend, go find a new best friend that isn't my boyfriend.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
