Why Every Girl Needs Her Guy Best Friends

Sometimes we just need another perspective.

Why Every Girl Needs Her Guy Best Friends
Mara Boboruzian

After completing my first year of college and half of my sophomore year, I have found some amazing friends that I am proud to call my family. These few include my two best guy friends at school, Ethan and Mitchell.

These two were my very first friends that I made at school and I am so happy I met them. They were there for my lows, my highs, and always there to help build me up during the rough times. The love I have for these two is unconditional.

Mitchell is absolutely obsessed with dogs. He will always put your needs first and always has the right words to say. He will be stern with you when needed, but always say what needs to be said in a nice way. Mitchell is also basically the “dad” of our friend group.

Ethan is something. He and my roommate are my absolute best friends. They know stuff about me that no one else knows or should. Him and I have deep conversations about life and what is going on around us. We can sit in silence and be content with just being with each other and also have our many movie nights. I am very grateful to have these two goofballs in my life.

I believe that every girl needs at least one guy best friend. They are always there to let you know when you are being a little too crazy and offer the boy’s perspective with relationship issues (no matter what type of relationship). They offer their opinions on what you are wearing and are always there to remind you that you don’t need makeup to look pretty!

Girls can be chock-full of drama, so being friends with guys can be a breath of fresh air. Don’t get me wrong, its great to have girlfriends (I mean, who else are you going to talk to about girl stuff). My friends like to mess around and have a good time. Obviously if you have an issue going on they will help you with it, but for the most part they just want to smile and laugh and have fun.

I could not be more grateful to have Ethan and Mitch. They have been there to wipe my tears and there to congratulate me for my accomplishments and I could not have asked for better people to have started my college experience with.

I hope every girl finds someone as fantastic as my two friends in her life!

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?

2029
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.
