Sure, we make friends all through our lives and sometimes even best friends come later on in life... but there is just something special about the ladies you are born with. When you've been friends for over a decade (or even two), nothing can wreck that friendship. Not having these people in your life would just suck, you know? They are your "go-to" ladies, your favorite sleepovers, and truly the biggest reason you visit home. And let's be real, you know they will always love you.

1. You know her entire wardrobe. And her favorite movie, and color, and tv show, etc.

2. Most of your conversations involve the phrase "Remember When..."

3. You can always be honest with each other. Always.

4. You'll know that when they get married, you'll be giving the toast. And vice versa.

5. You always eat junk food when you're together. Always.

6. You are totally comfortable sitting in silence together... and being lazy.

7. When someone tells you a secret, your bestie doesn't count.

8. You ALWAYS know when they are lying.

9. They have been there for you through all of the hard times. All of them.

10. You know that your friendship will last forever.

This is the story of any happy, long-term friendship and these things are totally true if you have been friends with someone since childhood. Being able to cope with someone at their worst is a pretty tough job, but it's totally worth it in the end. Best friends are great, and when you pick the right ones, they truly are forever.
