17 Signs You've Found Yourself A BFF

If you've ever scrolled through Facebook at least once in your lifetime, you have probably seen an article titled "Signs You've Found Your Best Friend." Truth be told, it's a popular topic because everyone loves their BFF. However, this article shines some light on the aspect no one really talks about. We know all best friends laugh until they cry and we know they have hundreds of inside jokes. Use this guide to determine if you've truly found your best friend.

You might have found yourself a best friend if...

1. You say the same thing at the exact same time

Best friends are in sync. Not intentionally, but naturally. Saying the same thing at the exact same time is just one of the ways you're in sync.

2. There is constant chatter and thinking out loud when you're together

BFFs talk about everything under the moon. This includes the most random thoughts, the biggest of fears, and the incredibly weird dream you had (which you describe in utmost detail).

3. Silence that isn't awkward

You may talk a mile a minute, but you're also comfortable with zero talking. You don't have to worry about filling that awkward silence with small talk because with your best friend, the silence isn't awkward at all.

4. Unintentional matching

You might roll up to dinner feeling like middle schoolers who planned to match, but the truth is, you didn't plan your outfits at all. This just goes back to being in sync. (See No. 1.)

5. Finishing each other's sentences

This one just speaks for itself.

6. There are sandwiches

When there's an extra person around all time, there's extra food. And that in itself is a blessing.

7. You run errands together

A trip to the car wash is more fun with a plus one.

8. You're a part of each other's families

This could mean tagging along on vacations or making an appearance at family dinner every now and then.

9. You have a "song"

And it instantly popped in your head as you read this.

10. They know your order at every restaurant

Who else would know that you order a chicken, bacon, ranch (easy on the bacon) burrito from Moe's?

11. You're mistaken for each other

You don't even look that much alike, but you're so similar that people get the two of you mixed up. It's a little startling when someone calls you the wrong name, but your best friend is super cool so it's actually kinda flattering.

12. You can read each other's minds

Nothing's better than exchanging one look and knowing exactly what the other one is thinking.

13. You show up to things together

Carpooling is not only effective, but fun. You don't have to worry about pulling up to the party solo and you can jam to some JT in the process.

14. You share clothes on the regular

If you and your best friend wear the same size shoe, consider yourself blessed.

15. You find the same things funny

No one else gets it, but it truly is hilarious.

16. A piece of your heart is missing when you're apart.

As corny as it is, it couldn't be more true. Whether you're apart for the summer or attend colleges on opposite ends of the state, when you're away from your best friend, a little piece of your heart is missing. But...

17. Your reunions are THE BEST.

And typically filled with all of the things listed above, and you pick up right where you left off.

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.

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.
