1. They will always have your back.

Whether it's boy problems or which shirt looks best on you, guys are always honest. They will tell you how it is. They will be your bodyguard, your shoulder to cry on, and your rock when you are crumbling.

2. They are easy to talk to.

Guys are better listeners than you think. You never have to worry about them going off and telling your secrets. I honestly think it’s because they couldn’t care less about the drama in your life. They can offer some great advice because they always have an open mind and can offer a different perspective for you.

3. You can be your complete self around them.

It doesn’t matter what you look like when you hang out with them. You can crack dirty jokes or ask stupid questions about sports. They will put up with how weird you are. Either way, they will not judge you.

4. Your brother likes him more than he likes you.

Maybe it’s just a guy thing, but my brother definitely gets along better with my guy friends than he does with me.

5. It's a usual occurance when people assume you are dating.

When I’m out with my friends, people always assume we’re together. Movies, shopping, or dinner, we always have to remind the server to split the check. Most of the time we just laugh about how often it happens.

6. You always have a date.

Even though you are not together, you will always have a “plus one” to every event. You know they will be a good time because you guys can have fun doing almost anything.

7. They will always love you unconditionally.

They don’t always show it, but at the end of the day, they love you. That is what really matters.
