We've all lived with parents, siblings, grandparents, friends and maybe even a few "randos", but if you've lived with your best friend, this is specifically for you. Have you stopped to think about what it's like living with your best friend, beyond the day-to-day stuff? If you haven't thought about it, consider these points as a baseline of the benefits you've received from living with your bestie.

1. Built-In Therapist

She's always there to listen to your ideas, worries, plans for the future, frustrations and constant threats to drop out of school. Along with being a good listener, she generally provides quality advice, and when she doesn't, she's there to clean up the aftermath and dry your tears.

2. Your Closet Doubled

It's hard to own every piece of clothing necessary for the perfect ensemble, lucky for us, God gave us roommates with similar tastes and sizes.

3. Certified First Responder to "Hanger"

She can see yourhangry condition coming on from a mile away. She'll be patiently holding a granola bar or delivering lunch before you kill the next poor, unfortunate soul who dares to approach you when you're THAT hungry.

4. Fool-Proof Alarm Clock

On those days when you slept through your alarm, or can't bring yourself to go to class, you can bet that she's going to drag you out of bed on time to suffer through the day with her.

5. She's Seen It All

Beginning with your early-morning, half-asleep self to your glasses clad and retainer-wearing night self and even the Saturday night, 10/10 self, she has seen it all. She loves you regardless, but be thankful that she's there to make you the best version of yourself at all times and phases of the day.

6. Threatening to Move Out On the Daily

You know you'll never actually move out, and so does she, but the threat can at least provide a laugh for the both of you.

7. Late-Night Snack/Early-Morning Coffee Dates

When you're craving a late-night cookie, or an early-morning cup of coffee, you know you can walk next door and usually round up a date for it. If there's food involved, you know she'll be as ready as you are.

8. Inadvertently Gained a Twin

Sometimes you talk alike, dress alike, and think alike and it scares the hell out of you because it was completely on accident. One moment life is going swell, and then you realize how much you just acted like your weirdo-best-friend-roommate, so you're just praying to go back to being normal.

9.Built-In #1 Fan

Even when she thinks it's a dumb, bad, terrible idea, she'll probably support you and your happiness. It's rare to find someone who will support you regardless of their own personal opinions. She loves you, even in spite of your worst ideas and choices. She'll always be the one to pick you back up and remind you to never do something stupid again...or for awhile at least.

10. You gained a sister/best friend/maid/chauffeur/accomplice/soul-mate

When you live with someone you see them at their best, their worst, their ugliest, their lowest, their hungriest, their most stressed and then you love them all the same for this whole person that you know. Having your best friend as your roommate will make you appreciate them, respect them, admire them, love them and get irritated with them all the more. Everything is amplified when you spend so much time together, luckily, the good outweighs the bad. When she eats the last cupcake and you want to wring her neck, remember that time when she brought you breakfast in bed after a bad night. When she throws her backpack in the middle of the walkway, remember when she dropped everything to be there when you needed her. In the instance in which she breaks your favorite coffee cup, remind yourself of the time when she was prepared to break the face of the boy who broke your heart. Basically, realize what a blessing it is to live with your best friend, it's a privilege to share everyday with her. Few memories will ever rival those that you are making, life is short, so enjoy this stage that you're in and be thankful to have your best friend by your side.
