You two are always asked how long you've been together, or if you're sick of one another, or asked what you do that doesn't make you completely bored. After awhile, there is a routine you have for things you do, that you also like to break now and then. Life is never boring when you're together, especially knowing that you have your best friend by your side.
1. Spend a lot of time together
You are always hanging out together, whenever you get the chance, and somehow never get sick of each other. You can be doing absolutely nothing, but just being with him makes it fun. Your other friends just go ahead and invite the both of you to places because it’s almost impossible to separate both of you.
2. Can read his mind
After a while of being together, you have learned all the different faces he makes and what they mean. Like when he smiles and gives you puppy dogs eyes, and you immediately know that he wants a back-rub. When you are out in public and give each other looks to indicate what you’re thinking, such as: eyebrow raised means “Did you see the shoes that girl was wearing?” This also comes in handy when working as a team in games like charades.
3. You walk into his house without knocking
You have gone to each other’s houses so often that it is just pointless to knock. You know that the door will already be unlocked for you, so you just walk right inside like it’s your own house. His family is used to just seeing you on the couch chilling, even if he is not in the room.
4.Treat his siblings as your own
You’ve spent just about as much time with his siblings as you have your own, and treat them the same. When his younger brother is being sassy, you’re just as sarcastic in your response back to him. His siblings are well accustomed to you hanging out with the family, and consider you a part of it.
5. Many inside jokes
There are endless amounts of jokes between the two of you that have been collected from past years. One little word can bring pack a ton of memories that can start a giggle fit. You constantly refer to things that other people have no idea what you’re talking about.
6. He can make your stomach hurt from laughing
With all the jokes you share, there are bound to be stomach pains from laughing for a while. There is always just one stupid joke that makes you laugh for hours on end, along with crying, and eventually there is no sound left coming out. They say laughter is the best medicine, so at least you’ll be healthy.
7. He is also a great shoulder to cry on
When times are rough, he is also there to offer you a hug and let you cry all over his shirt if necessary. He knows when you are stressed out about something, and will help calm you down and get out the special crying shirt he has just for times like this.
8. You guys can be fancy or slum it
The two of you are up for going out on the town for a nice date, or even just watching a movie at the house. He is very flexible and willing to do whatever. You two don’t have to go out on fancy dates to have fun. You like staying in just as much (maybe more) than going out to do something.
9. You like to just watch TV and hang out
Watching TV is one of your favorite activities to do together. There are multiple shows that you can’t watch without the other, or you’ll be in trouble. You gossip and make guesses about what will happen to the characters and also relate yourselves to them. Sometimes you don’t watch the same thing, so you make a compromise: one episode of Project Runway equals one episode of Gas Monkey.
10. Can talk about anything
There is always something you can talk, or debate, about. The range of topics knows no limits. One minute you’ll be talking about your Chemistry test, then it will be about how your left foot is slightly larger than your right. Nothing has become awkward at this point. Silence is also embraced, and gives you two more time to think about things to talk about.
11. He is the first person you go to about anything
Whenever something happens that you want to share with someone, he is the very first person you talk to. Whether it’s about how well you did on a test or that a girl in your math class hasn’t shown up in several days, whatever is going on in life, you make sure he knows.
12. You both keep up with friend/family drama
Both of you are up-to-date with the daily drama of this thing we call life. Whether it be family or friend related, you both know. He knows all about the boy your sister has a crush on, and you know all about how his best friend is doing at a different college. There is always chaos going on and you both get out the popcorn and watch what happens.
13. Closer to each other than anyone else
You are best friends and know each other’s strengths and weaknesses, your weird quirks, what your favorite food is, and literally everything about each other. You two also tell each other everything, it is hard to keep secrets, and when you try to…it is impossible to keep a straight face.
14. Stay together through thick and thin
After all the time you two have been together, through the good and the bad, you have still remained with each other. There have been times when you thought the world was against you and it put you in a terrible mood, and he was there supporting you even when it was hard for him too. Giving up was never thought of, you just get through rough spots because what you two have is not worth destroying.
