Long distance relationships are hard. Especially with with your best friend. No one likes being away from the person you tell LITERALLY everything too. Shocking stories are just not the same to tell each other over text, phone or Skype, but we somehow manage. You can go weeks without talking to your long distance best friend and know things will be the exact same. You can also go months and months without seeing each other and pick up exactly where you left off when you finally do get to be reunited. These are just a few of the first things that happen when you finally see your BFF for the first time in a while.
1. Screaming, obviously - Even the quietest girls let out an excited squeal when they finally see their best friend for a long time. It's mandatory.
2. Hugging (also pretty obvious) - You're going to give your best friend the biggest hug ever like you haven't seen them in years... even if its only been a week.
3. Eating - Regardless of whether you meet up with your best friend at a restaurant/cafe or at a house, you're going to eat. While catching up on all of the gossip you're going to want snacks to indulge in.
4. Gossiping - As soon as you're done with the screaming and hugging you're going to probably get down to business, especially if it has been a long time since you two have seen each other. You're going to have to catch up on EVERYTHING that has happened, which can take hours so you pretty much have to start right away.
5. Drinking wine - Nothing accompanies catching up with your BFF better than a bottle of wine to split. Once you have that and the snacks you're pretty much golden.
6. Reminiscing on old memories - Seeing as you don't have recent memories of the two of you to laugh about at that moment, you're most likely going to laugh about the stupid things you've done together over the years.
7. Laughing until you cry - This is inevitable. Especially if you're reminiscing on old stories. You will end up laughing until your stomach hurts or you begin to cry if this person truly is your best friend.
8. Talking about food - Whether you're still snacking on whatever you brought for this reunion or not you're going to talk about food. Most likely something along the lines of how much you wish pasta didn't have carbs.
9. Talking about boys - You're going to talk about your boyfriend, you're friends boyfriend or you're latest hookup. Whatever is relevant in the boy world - it's going to be discussed.
10. Emotional moments - Especially once the wine starts to settle in things can start to get sentimental.
