15 Things That Happen When You Have A BF/BF
Megan Pettit

After dating someone, there becomes a point where they aren't just a significant other. They are the one you can count on, the one that you trust completely, and the one that will always encourage you to be your best. They are your BF/BF. These qualities are often ones that you find in your best friends. Boyfriends who also qualify as best friends are the most special to find. Here are 15 things that happen when your boyfriend doubles as a best friend:

1. There aren't any secrets

There really isn't a lot of private info. I mean, best friends know all of your deepest secrets right? Same thing applies here, but on a whole new level. Obviously, this shows just how much you guys trust each other.

2. There are countless inside jokes

It is extremely rare to not be laughing with your BF/BF. The number of inside jokes are endless, but you wouldn't have it any other way. Sometimes the funniest moments are memories from forever ago that pop up.

3. There are often tears (only prompted from constant laughing)

These are the only tears allowed. Laughing until you cry or can't breathe is the best medicine out there, and there is nothing better than seeing your best friend with the biggest smile on their face.

4. Their house is your house, and vice versa

It is not uncommon to find each other in the others fridge or on their couch. It's a give and take kind of thing.

5. You see each other at your absolute worst (and best)

Through distance, rocky friendships, and family deaths. Through graduations, job offers, and success. You guys are there for each other through it all. Being able to share so much with one person is the absolute best. They are the first person you run to with information good or bad.

6. You probably like the same types of food

Let's be honest, will this relationship work out if you both don't love Olive Garden?

7. The number of photos you have together is ridiculous

Pictures are worth a thousand words, right?

8. You know how to make each other smile

Smiles are flying everywhere when your boyfriend doubles as a best friend.

9. You find similar hobbies

The best part of having a best friend is being able to do super fun stuff together. This relationship is no different. Making memories and being able to find similar hobbies is seriously the best.

10. You find out each other's nasty habits

And you TOTALLY embrace them.

11. No one else could ever replace them

Because, let's face it, who else could handle all your sass, weirdness, and constant affection?

12. Their family is your family, and vice versa

Nothing is better than holidays, family game nights, and tons of laughter.

13. You call each other "dude"

And babe... occasionally. Oh, and the amount of Snapchat filter pics is off the charts.

14. They are the first person you go to with any kind of news

There aren't too many people you can call 19 times a day and complain to, and they still listen and give advice. You rock, dude!

15. You love them unconditionally

It is hard to find a person to be both a best friend and a boyfriend. So, if you found a BF/BF like I did, hold on tight!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
