14 Laughable Ways To Spot 'The Mom' Of Your Friend Group
Laura Guerriero

Moms. Every friend group has one (or two, or three), even if none of you are actual moms (or girls, for that matter. Group moms can be guys too.).

Friend-moms are a part of every group in some way, shape or form. If you're wondering who in your friend group is group mom, or if you're wondering which of your group moms is the most mom, here's a list of signs to look for.

1. They send the group good morning/have a great day texts regularly.

"Good morning guys! I hope you all have a day as lovely as you are!"

2. They'll also make sure to send a reassuring midday "you've got this" text.

"Only one more day until the weekend guys, you're going to kill it on your exams!"

3. They make sure you're staying safe when you go out and will be the first person there if you're not.

"Let me know if you need anything, I'll be there in five minutes flat."

4. They'll make sure you're eating well.

*Offers you carrots*

5. Because of this, they'll invite you over for dinner to save you from the dining hall.

"Want to come over tonight? I'm making tacos."

6. And they'll make sure your food is safe to eat.

6. If you're sick, they'll be the first one there with Gatorade and Advil.

"What flavor do you want?"

7. And if you need to go to the doctor, they'll come with you.

Because going to the doctor alone is the worst.

8. They're always there to offer advice.

Even if it's not the best advice.

9. They're the first to offer to fight someone for you.

"What did he do to you? I'll fight him."

10. And they're always there for hugs when you need them.

Or if you don't like hugs, some high fives may suffice.

11. They'll make it a point to check in on you, even if you barely see them.

"I know we never see each other, but I hope you're doing well!"

12. They're not afraid to ~only slightly~ lecture you when they think you're going off the rails.

"I love you, but you need to get it together."

13. They try to take care of everyone.

14. They would do anything for you.

That might just be a sign of a good friend, but I'll include it anyway.

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
