To The Girl Who Dates My Best Friend

Sometimes there are just those people that come into our lives, and suddenly you don't know exactly where it started but it is as if you've been friends your whole lives. He was one of these people to me. But if we're being honest at first I wanted ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with this kid, from the very first second I saw him. Little did I know, he would be in all of my classes except for one. Everyone told me that I might as well at least become an acquaintance with him, being that he was in pretty much all of my classes. But me being me I refused to accept that or to entertain the idea of even learning his real name. Low and behold this idiot would turn out to be one of my best friends. But enough about us, its time to talk about you.

If you are even thinking about dating my best friend there are a few things you should understand.


1. We are best friends, that is all.

There is no reason to be worried that I am going to steal him from you. However, you best believe that if you are toxic to him and treat him like crap I will do everything in my power to make you disappear.

2. He is not going to stop talking to me.

We have already faced this if a girl comes along and tries to tell him he can't talk to me...I will not be the one to disappear it will be her. We are not going to cut our friendship for someone who probably won't be permanent.

3. I get to make fun of him 24/7 and more.

You are going to hear me make fun of him, call him names, and have inside jokes with him. But let us be clear we are best friends, we have talked about it, and he is okay with me making fun of him: because he knows deep down I love him. You, on the other hand, need to be careful of what you say to him, and how you say it.

4. Your relation to our friendship.

There is nothing I want more than for my best friend to be happy. Which means if you make him happy then I guess you're okay in my book. That being said, I might not be the friendliest all the time: part of that is just who I am. But also I know there will be times when we won't be able to hang out because he is spending time with you. Yes I know this will happen, and I will be mostly okay, but that doesn't mean I'll always be the happiest about it. There is a good chance until you are here for a while that I won't refer to you by your name. I will know your name, and use it when talking to you. But when I am talking to him, you'll probably get a nickname. (It's not meant to be a bitchy move I promise, just how I work)

5. Heaven forbid that you hurt him.

We have our fair share of nicknames, and jokes that sound terrible to anyone who doesn't know us, but it is all in a good manner. Our friendship grew out of us not liking each other, but now we are best friends and love each other. Over the course of our friendship, I have gotten to know this idiot, we share sayings and habits like we are two halves of a whole at times. We know and love each other's families. It is almost as if we were born as twins. Which means if you hurt him, you are hurting me too. If you do something to upset or anger him I feel the same way. We tell each other everything, so if you wrong him you can guarantee that I know about it and am not happy. He is one of the most amazing, kind, caring humans that I know, and he doesn't deserve to be treated any less than the best. I will make sure of that, and if you aren't treating him good, you will have to answer to me. Because no one is going to treat my best friend any less than he should be.

6. I have your back too.

I know it may sound like I am pretty against you, but I'm not. I will have your back too. When he gets out of line, starts acting like an idiot, or gets scared and shuts you out. I will be there to keep him in line and make sure he is okay. Because in the end, if you're good to him, then I'll probably like you. If you need to know something about him, want to hear funny stories, or see funny photos; then I am the person who can provide that, you just have to ask. Sometimes I'll tell you without asking just cause I think it'll be funny to see if I can embarrass him.

In the end, please just be good to him. Treat him like the amazing, funny, and caring guy he is: and please respect our friendship. Because in the end, I want nothing more than to see my best friend happy because he deserves it.

Friendship. It's defined as the state of being attached to another person by feelings of affection or personal regard, but what really is friendship? Is it that occasional hallway talk with that one person who always manages to cheer you up? Is it that relationship you have with someone where they can be gone for a long period of time, but when they come back, it's like they never left? Is it spending every waking hour with someone, and knowing every detail about their life? Is it the relationship that's filled with fighting, but filled with even more resolution? I've learned that it's all of these things, and every friendship is different. It's a beautifully dysfunctional mess that should always be cherished and never be taken for granted.
