I'm telling you right now to room with your best friend if you want to. There have been numerous studies telling you to do the exact opposite. You're told to run the other direction because it will ruin your friendship. Well those studies are wrong and heres 7 reasons rooming with your best friends will complete your life.

They will take on every cheat day with you.

So you want to skip the gym today and pig out on some really good Thia food. Chances are your best friend gone roommate will be down to join you.

Your place is a judgment free zone.

No matter your past or your strange hobbies best friends love you for you. And if you want to sit on the couch for 12 hours watching Grey's Anatomy reruns they don't care. They might even be right beside you doing the same thing.

If you need someone at 3:00am on a Tuesday they are there for you.

Whether it's a ride home from a tinder mistake or you need a hug because life is getting to be a little too much. Your roommate is never too far away to come to your rescue.

When you bring a bad guy home your best friend isn't going to let that happen.

Best friends look out for each other and if Chad from Palace Coffee wants to take you out and your roommate knows Chad has a girlfriend or Chad is a bad guy they are going to be brutally honest. You'll be mad at first but Chad is bad and they are doing you a favor.

You can share everything.

Okay so maybe not everything but for the most part if you need to raid their closet its up for grabs. And if they make dinner its probably for two and you can have some.

They keep you in check.

If it's time to get yourself together they are going to tell you. When it's been a little to long since you went out last you'er going to hear about it. If that outfit is just not cutting it they will tell you. Brutal honesty is no stranger in ya'll's home.

Unlimited venting time.

Your day turned sour or someone just really ticked you off. Good thing you live with your best friend and you can vent to her when ya'll both get home.

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.
