1.) They are brutally honest.

Your extroverted friend is not going to be afraid to tell you the truth. If you ask their opinion on something, they’re going to tell you what they think. You’re wondering about a new outfit and ask them about it? If they said they liked it, trust me, they probably liked it. If not, they probably would have told you so. Complete with reasons why and future outfit recommendations.

2.) They’re Natural Entertainers

A ride in the car with them is basically better than any concert you could ever go to. They are without a doubt, Beyoncé’s second child she doesn’t know about, complete with choreography, backup vocals, and Mariah Carey vocal runs.

3.)They make you try new things

Let’s be honest, if you had your way sometimes, you’d be sitting in your bed watching the Bachelorette eating Sour Patch Kids and drinking Mountain Dew every night. With them though, they basically drag you out of your solace to go do actual things in the real world.(Not that the Bachelorette on a Monday night isn’t living because that sounds like a real good time to me) Even though you might not want to, usually you end up enjoying it.

4.)You complement each other

You all are pretty much the Tina and Amy power friendship just because you all are so different. They understand your calm, introverted nature and you understand how outgoing and extroverted they can be and it just works. It keeps things interesting and if you were the same, you would probably hate each other.

5.) They can talk for you when you don’t want to.

When you aren’t feeling people today or have to talk to new people that you just REALLY don’t feel like talking to? Not a problem when you have your BFF with you. They got you. They are great at adding you into the conversation without you having to say a word. So, they look like the friendliest person in the world, and you look like you don’t hate people for the day and all you have to do is stand there with a smile on your face. WIN WIN.
