We've all heard the advice to never live with your best friends in college if you want to keep them as friends. But like all advice that has ever been given to me, I chose to ignore it and I'm so glad I did.
Living with your best friends in college could end disastrously or it could be the best decision of your life. For me, it was the latter. Here's a few perks of living with your best friends as told by the best group of buddies that has ever been: the Friends cast.
You live with your own personal stylists
It may not work out the best every time, but at least they tried.
And your own chauffeur
Whether you need a ride to class or to the bars, at least one of your roommates will probably be there. And the ride is sure to be terrifying fun.
They know how to have a good time
You live with your biggest fans
Aced a test? Got a job? Woke up and went to class today? They already know about it and are so #proud of you.
And you know they'll be there for you when you come home upset
There's no way you're getting away with crying yourself to sleep, alone. They'll know you're upset and they'll cry it out with you.
You can do the weirdest things together
And you know it will definitely get captured on someone's snapchat story.
You can always be yourself
No matter how strange your inner self may be.
Dance parties are a given
Whether it's at the Friday night pregame or someone just has High School Musical stuck in their head, dancing on the coffee table is not an uncommon activity.
You're not afraid to put them in their place
And they're not afraid to put you in yours. You can tell them honestly how annoying they're being and don't have to worry about sparing their feelings.
But at the end of the day, you know they'll always have your back.
And you'll have theirs.
