Roles Every Best Friend Plays

Special thanks to all that best friends do in our lives and all the different roles they play. Here are a few essential roles our best friends play in our life.

1. The therapist.

Analyzing situations is probably the No. 1 responsibility of a best friend. Whether it be listening as you rant about how they forgot to put the cheese on the sandwich you ordered for lunch or giving advice in making a decision like what major to pick or what college to choose. You are there to combat every problem no matter how big or small.

2. The co-writer.


Apple did us all a favor with the screenshot as it has allowed us to send every awkward message to our best friend for them to come up with the best response to. From deciding how to word the text to choosing the perfect emoji, special thanks for being my anonymous co-writer.

3. The diary.


Best friends are the keeper of our secrets, like the diary I had when I was in the third grade. There isn't any secret I wouldn't tell you. I appreciate you keeping every secret and for not bringing up that one really embarrassing crush I had when I was 14.

4. The Nev to my Max.


Sorry MTV, but my best friend I perfected the skills of finding information out through social media long before you did. Don't underestimate our skills to know if someone's lying.

5. The workout buddy.


Best friends make for the best workout buddies as they are always there to give you that little push you need. "If we run another mile, we can get an ice cream on the way home."

6. The motivational speaker.


Best friends are the people that believe in us sometimes when we don't believe in ourselves. They constantly remind us that "We can do it"; nothing like a little pep talk from a best friend.

7. The comedian.


Yes, we could all use a laugh sometimes. It is no secret that best friends will go to any length in order to make their best friend laugh. They never live in fear of looking ridiculous because it is their job to give you that comic relief when life gets tough sometimes.

8. The reality check.


The best thing about best friends is they aren't afraid to give you the cold hard truth. Sometimes we need to be told we are wrong, and that's OK because that's what best friends are for. They give us an outside perspective and, ultimately, they want the best for us.

9. Wardrobe consultant/stylist.


"I cannot decide what to wear. I'm going to send you different options." "What are you wearing?" "Are we looking cute?" "Does this match?" "How does my hair look? Honestly?" "Should I buy this?" Yes, best friends are always there to tell you how it is. We put full trust in them when deciding how to dress to impress.

10. The "Remember when's?"


Best friends have thousands of inside jokes and memories that when brought up can instantly make one laugh uncontrollably.

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.

You know that all of these things apply to you. You'll just never tell.

I'm an anthropology major, and I love every minute of it. I couldn't tell you why, but I guess there's just something about studying different lifestyles that absolutely fascinates me. But anthropology majors definitely have our weird sides, especially when you go to a school that is filled with mostly Business and Bio majors. But us weirdos definitely have a lot in common, specifically these 16 things.

Everyone has insecurities, that's just a fact. You didn't ask to be born this way. You didn't ask to inherit the one trait no one else in your family has. And you definitely didn't ask to be this ghostly white. But as soon as you've learned to live with it for a while (less wrinkles later on in life, right? right???) someone has to ruin it for you. They have to flaunt they're perfectly tanned body from Spring Break and hold their sun-kissed skin against yours. But I've had enough... here are the things that perpetually pale individuals are tired of hearing.
