In my 18 years of life, I've learned that there are many, many different levels of friendship ranging from the friends that you just talk to at school to the friend who might as well be your blood-related sister.
While there are many perks to both, here are the perks to having a friend that doubles as your sister.
1. You always have someone to rant to about anything or anyone
When you're mad and need to let off some steam, they're always available to listen to you without comment (until your rant is over, at least.) Sometimes all you need to do is scream at someone to make yourself feel better, and your girl will always be there to listen.
2. When you've had a bad day, she will always cheer you up
Whether its needing to cry to someone or just needing to be in someone's presence (yes, FaceTime counts too,) your girl will be always, always, ALWAYS be there.
3. You always have someone to eat with if you don't want to go alone
Sometimes you just need to get out of the house and eat some unhealthy fast food, but you don't want to go alone and your girl will, a majority of the time, be down to go with you. Sometimes the best friend-dates are the spontaneous ones.
4. It's basically like you have another closet
When the outfit you have envisioned in your head doesn't exactly match the clothes that you have in your closet, chances are that your bestie has what you need in her closet.
5. You always have someone to shop with
Whether it's a trip to Walmart or a trip to the mall, your girl is always down for a trip.
6. All the free meals
This speaks for itself. What a blessing your bestie is.
7. There is no need to entertain
You're the only entertainment anyone could ever need.
8. There is no need to sugar coat things
9. You have someone you can be your true self around.
There's nothing but love and laughter when I'm with my bestie and nothing but love for my bestie.
