Everyone has one in their friend group: the mom friend. Arguably one of the most important roles in the friend group in order to keep everyone and everything together. Not everyone remembers exactly when they realized they were the mom friend, but every mom friend has dealt with these situations.
1. You always have snacks
The second someone mentions that they're hungry, you have snacks ready to go and won't take no for an answer until they eat.
2. You're always there to listen
If your friends need to vent to someone, they talk to you. You're always there to listen, and people come to you first to complain.
3. You offer the best advice
Additionally, when they come to you to complain about an issue, you're then ready to provide a solution to whatever the issue is. It's not just important to listen, but it's important to help and support your friends.
4. When you go out, you take care of your friends
Someone has to make sure that everyone gets home, and that someone is you. If your friend group goes out, then you're the one to make sure that everyone makes it home safe at the end of the night.
5. You check in with your friends frequently
If they're struggling with something, you are the first one to check in and make sure they're okay. If someone's not where they say they will be, then you're the first one to check in with them.
6. You're the planner
You make plans, you invite everyone and you make sure that people are still able to go the day before.
7. Everyone trusts you
Your friends don't just come to you because you're a good listener, they come to you because you are trustworthy and will protect the secrets that are told to you.
8. You're always there to help
Maybe your friend has an art project that they need help with, or they're trying to get someone to notice them. No matter what it is, you'll drop everything to help your friends when they need it.
9. You are the fixer
In addition to helping, you're always prepared when an emergency strikes. From something as small as a needing pain relieving pills to a heartbreak, you're always prepared to fix a situation as fast as possible.
10. Doing all this makes you happy
There is nothing a mom friend loves more than feeling appreciated or that by helping her friends she has made their lives easier. Even though it's work, being the mom friend is an important role in the friend group.
