An Open Letter To My Best Friend

Dear best friend,

You have been by my side since day one. You have stuck by me through the goth phases, the braces, and through those "finding me" years. You have laughed with me, cried with me, and walked with me through some of the hardest parts of my life.
You were right beside me whenever I fell off the swing and got a black eye. You were right beside me when I fell down the stairs in the 7th grade. You were right beside me when I had my first heartbreak, and you threatened to kill him.

I will always thank you for sticking up for me and letting me borrow your clothes. I will always thank you for getting a boys number when I'm too scared to. I will always thank you for wiping the tears from my eyes and replacing them with a smile. You always make me laugh when I'm sad and that's my favorite thing about you. I will always thank you for telling me when too much eyeliner is too much, and when I should wear shorts under my dress.

I cherish the memories we have together, the sleepovers and late night phone calls before we had cell phones. I cherish the laughs we have had, the photos we have taken, and the karaoke car sessions.

You were there for me when I felt like no one else was and you always picked me back up. You're the best friend a girl could ask for!


Love,

Your Best Friend

We call those people, "Honorary Roommates" and here are 11 signs you have one in your life.

Toilet Troubles

"So, usually I would never go on a Tinder date but when you are out with girlfriends and a hot Bosnian guy says he wants to hang with you and his friends, you oblige. We head to their apartment and when I realized I may pee my pants if I don't find a bathroom soon. I ask for the bathroom and a friend of my tinder date shows me to it and said in all seriousness that I was not allowed to flush the toilet under ANY circumstances. Having a few drinks--or five--I relieved myself to, nevertheless, flush the toilet. Within seconds, his bathroom was flooded and towels were laid out everywhere to catch the toilet water. To say the least, we were not invited back"
