We all have friends that we consider the fam. Whether it's partying all night or working all day together, the fam doesn't get much better than this. So, here's 10 benefits of having a close-knit fam.
1. Socialization
Let's face it! In a small town, you don't do much except work and gossip about your neighbor. So, you live for the time spent socializing with the fam.
2. Laughter is the best medicine
Whenever someone in the fam is feeling down, you make arrangements to get together so that they don't have to be alone. No matter how down you are, the fam will always make you laugh by telling old stories from the past or plotting the death of the one who hurt you. After all, laughter is the best medicine.
3. You don't feel excluded because everyone's single
Have you ever felt like you're the only one in the group of friends who's single? While everyone's making out with their other half, you just sit in your chair feeling lonely as ever. But the fam never leaves you feeling that way because you're usually all single and not ready to mingle.
4. Free spirited
Adventure is the fam's middle name. You're always finding something to do together whether it's stepping into a haunted house or trying to go zip lining in the middle of the night.
5. You look out for each other
That phone call at 3 a.m. in the morning isn't your parents, it's the fam making sure you got home safe and another one in the morning to make sure you're up in time for work.
6. They make you live life
Small town people don't get to live life too exciting, but getting with the fam is always a good time. When ever you get together, you know that life doesn't get much better than this.
7. Makes you look forward to the time spent
The time the fam spends together is the best time of your life. The highlight of the week is getting to go spend it with them.
8. You are excepted
No judgement or condemnation is allowed. No matter what you do or how far you come from falling of the edge of the cliff, the fam will always except you and your craziness or stupidity.
9. You are family
Fam is fam. You might not be blood related, but you're pretty damn close.
10. It's always a good time
Whatever the fam does, it's always going to be a good time. From picking popcorn to sitting in a camper chatting, time spent with the fam never disappoints. Because you don't count the hours, you make the hours count!
