We all have that one friend who has now become family. I was blessed and met this person in 1st grade. After 11 years of friendship, I couldn't be any more thankful. She has honestly made me realize why having a lifelong best friend is a great thing.

1. They are a shoulder to cry on

Bad day? Going through a rough breakup or even a rough week? Need to vent? They will always be the first person who will be all ears and listen to anything and everything you need to say.

2. Endless adventures

They will almost always be your go-to person when it comes to road trips and adventures. Plus every time the two of you go on one, you come back with the best memories and so many things to talk about.

3. Deep convos

Whether it be gossiping or ranting, these convos go on for hours on end, and there's always tears of laughter or tears of hurt. Either way, there is never. day that goes by that there isn't something good to talk about.

4. They're the one person you can ALWAYS rely on

Need some late night snacks? Forgot something? Need someone to go with you somewhere? They always have your back. They very rarely let you down, and will feel bad about it for days on end if they do. You never have to worry about anything going downhill with them.

5. No sugar-coating

They will straight up tell you if you aren't looking too good. They also aren't going to stand back and let you think good things about a person or scenario when they know the truth about it. On top of that, they won't be afraid to let you know how they feel about the person you date. They also won't be the person that hides secrets from you. They would rather tell you the truth no matter how bad it may hurt, instead of letting you believe something completely different and have it destroy you.

6. You can always be yourself around them

They won't ever try to change you in any way, unless it's to help you improve yourself.

7. You never get bored when you're together

There is never a dull moment. You two genuinely enjoy each other's company and can always have fun doing something, even if it's just sitting on the couch binge watching Netflix.

8. You both know that you're friendship will never end

Let's face it. By this point, you two are stuck with each other forever. You truly enjoy having them as your best friend. You have been through thick and thin with each other, and nothing could ever destroy this friendship.

9. They will always be your #1 supporter

They will never fail to support you with every decision you make. They enjoy watching you play your sport, and will always be the loudest one in the stadium, or arena. They make it obvious that nobody else will ever top them when it comes to supporting you.

10. The both of you are practically the same person

You have now become the same person. You think the same, have the same interests, dislike the same things, and feel the same way about a lot of things.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.
