9 Reasons Your BFF's Mom Is Yours, Too

You're all pretty much family anyway.

9 Reasons Your BFF's Mom Is Yours, Too

A lot of people have that friend that know everything about you. Some of them you can stay with days on end, and some of them claim you as family before anything else. Their family is your family, and you all act like it. You all have a connection, but their mom in particular knows you all too well.

Their mom could totally be your mom. Here's just a few ways:

1. She knows pretty much everything about you

Giphy

She's like Google when it comes to your life. If she didn't know something before, she certainly will find out somehow.

2. You would do anything you would do for your mom for her

Giphy

I mean you're practically family, so all the same rules apply.

3. You're not sure what to call her so, you stick to "Mom"

Giphy

Seriously, help me out... Saying "Mrs. (last name)" just feels awkward. Anybody else have this problem?

4. You're always welcome "home"

Giphy

School break and it's too far to go home? You always know where to go. Just want to be somewhere familiar for a few days? She has you covered.

5. You can rant anytime you need

Giphy

Anything you need to say she is going to listen to you. No matter how angry, sad or upset you are, you know you can go to her.

6. She gives you the best advice

Giphy

She either knows what your mother would say or knows exactly what to say to you. Crisis advice or everyday advice she has it prepared.

7. She supports you

Giphy

We all know the classic statement "You have a bright future ahead," which is used when people have no idea what to say to you in a conversation. She actually means it, and helps you get there.

8. She will tell you when to get your shit together

Giphy

Remember when you practically flipped your shit because you were convinced you couldn't do it? What about that time you had a breakdown over nothing that would end your life as you know it? Remember how she told you to knock it off because you would be fine. She was right.

9. You both love each other like true family

Giphy

I mean if all of the above doesn't show it, you probably tell each other verbally.

Obviously, no one can replace your real mom. If anyone comes close though, it is going to be your best friend's mom. No one else is going to stick by you like your family, best friend and their family.

You could never thank them enough.

Share with your second mom and tell her you love her!

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
