We all have those people that we just connect with naturally. You may be looking for love or trying to find people, but as Taylor Swift puts it, the best feeling is when you "wake up and find that what you're looking for has been here the whole time". These people are your best friends and these are the reasons why you are lucky to have them in your life:

1. They’re always ready to give you the thumbs up when you need it. When you’re self-conscious or nervous about something, you can always count on them to give you the best pep talk.

You believe "you'll kill it" because they said so.

2. They’ve seen you at your worst and you don’t even care because they love your craziness.

They'll even join you in the weirdness..life's too short to feel embarrassed.

3. You can sass each other without feeling guilty.

That's how you find humor in situations.

4. You might drive each other insane at times but that only brings you closer in the end.

One comment like this is usually followed by a million hugs and "I'm so sorry"'s.

5. When you are feeling down, they’ll be the first to give you a big hug and tell you everything will be okay.

When you're not touchy-feely, but you give your friends the best hugs anyway.

Hey, at least you're learning what's acceptable and what's not.

7.They’re “your lobster” so they’ll never leave your side.

Who wouldn't want to be someone's lobster?

When you just want to let out the feels.

9. They’ll be brutally honest with you even when you don't want to hear it because they want to protect you.

How could you say that?? Oh wait, its true.

10. You have so much in common. You connect on every level and they can easily make you smile.

Even if it means bringing you food!

11. You don't need words to communicate sometimes...they just know.

You know you're close when your look says it all.

12. Let’s face it, we all feel alone sometimes and you’ll feel comfortable complaining to them.

But in the process, you’ll realize you’re not alone at all because they are right there with you.
