8 Signs You Are The Mom Friend

We all have a mom friend. If you don't have one, chances are that you are the mom friend.

We all have that one friend who acts more like your mom than your actual mom does sometimes. If your friend group doesn’t have a designated “mom” in it, you are probably the mom friend, but guess what? It is OK to be that mom friend. Here are a couple signs to you tell whether you are that “mom friend” or not:

1. You always have medicine/first-aid kit with you.

Whenever one of your friends gets hurt or needs some medicine for a headache they always end up going to you.

2. All your friends ask you for advice.


They ask you because they know you'll break it down for them to easily understand what they need to do. It's nice being asked for advice on whatever. It makes you feel important.

3. You constantly have to remind your friends of important tasks/dates.

There have been many times where I have to ask my friends to make sure they have eaten enough or went to the bathroom before we left on a trip somewhere or even if they have done their homework. If their answers are no, then I make sure they do the tasks the need to do.

4. You often send the “did you make it back safe text.”

We worry. We want to make sure you are safe and still alive.

5. Before you go somewhere you check to see if everyone has everything they need.

It's become a routine of mine to ask my roommate if she has her keys before she leaves. I just don't want her to be locked out or end up forgetting something important.

6. Snacks. You always have snacks.

Nutri-Grain bars and Pop-Tarts are always in my purse.

7. You get into arguments, defending your friends.

Moms will fight to the death for their children similarly to how us "mom friends" fight for our friends. We just prefer to do it in a passive aggressive way.

8. Your friends say things like "got it mom" or "jeez mom OK" to you.

Sorry, we care about you and love you.

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.
