5 Reasons You'll Never Understand My Best Friend And Me

She'll forever be my best friend, no matter what.

5 Reasons You'll Never Understand My Best Friend And Me
Jocie Hunley

My best friend has been there with me through all the good and bad times in my life. She has been my rock, and I hers. Our good times have far outnumbered the bad. The memories we have made in life can never be replaced. She is and always will be my person, but I don't expect anyone to understand why.

1. Our relationship is twisted.

From the outside looking in, we seem like enemies, not best friends. We argue and make fun of each other. We point out every flaw of the other person. This is just another normal day for us. All of this is just fun for us. Each day is another new adventure.

2. Even when we aren't friends, we are.


Just like in every other relationship, we fight. We have days when we throw in the towel. One of us decides we don't want any part of this friendship anymore. We have the nasty fight, all the arguments, then we stop talking. Then something happens, and we can't think of anyone else we want to run to and tell. We text for long enough to share a story, then we go back to not being friends, but then again, we still are. You'll never be able to tell the difference.

3. We think we own each other.


We get seriously offended when someone else tries to be friends with our best friend. She's my best friend, not yours. Do you know her favorite food, color and song? No? That's because she's my best friend. No one can take what belongs to me.

4. We love each other. A lot.

There is no other relationship in which we will love the other person this much. We pick each other over our significant other pretty regularly, but who wouldn't? She's been there with me through every difficult trial in my life for as long as I remember. She'll always be here, and she has proven that to me over the past 14 years.

5. We get tired of each other.

We spend a large amount of time together. Sometimes, when we're together for a long time, we get really annoyed with each other and say mean things. People must think we're crazy and wonder why we're even friends. But what they don't know is we know that the other person doesn't mean anything they say.

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.

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.
