Like most soon-to-be college students, I had an outrageously unrealistic fear of not making friends once I got to school. People told me over and over again how it's literally impossible not to stay friendless in college because everyone's in the same boat. I didn't believe it the first three days of school considering the only people I talked to were my weird roommate and the security guard at my building.
That all changed, however, when my next-door neighbor walked into my room, sat on my bed and just started talking.
It was a 'friendship at first sight' moment considering we're now roommates and as inseparable as they come. She's the perfect example of what a best friend should be, so here are some signs that you've found yours:
1. She doesn't judge you for how much you eat - probably because she's the one calling Dominos at 2 a.m.
2. She's someone you can trust to always be brutally honest, even when it hurts.
3. People know to watch out for you both because when you're together there's almost always trouble.
4. She lets you lay in her bed with her even though she hates all forms of physical contact.
5. There's no one else you'd rather go out, dance and be your weird self with.
6. You hate being apart, even if it's just while she's in class for an hour.
7. It's always such a huge deal when you're reunited that people can hear you screaming from across campus.
8. She's your number one fan, partner in crime, up-for-anything person.
9. Whether it's grocery shopping or sitting in traffic, you're guaranteed to laugh your head off together.
10. She shows you the true meaning of friendship and how you can't picture life without her.
