Why I Love Having A Gay BFF

Everyone should have a close gay friend.

Why I Love Having A Gay BFF
Daily Mail

When thinking about the requirements that come into a relationship, I tend to have very high standards. That person must be loyal, always honest, have a good personality, have good hygiene, always be down to have a fun time and must be someone who will never shy away from speaking their mind. Luckily for me, I can say that my best friend has all these qualities. Oh… Did I mention he’s gay? The stereotypes go on and on about how cliche it is for a girl to have a gay best friend, but in reality, everyone should have one!

My best friend is always brutally honest. We can go shopping and he will instantly tell me if I look fat in dress. Sure, that sounds harsh, but it’s better than buying the dress and having people talk about you behind your back afterward about how stupid you look. Not only is he honest about clothes and styles, but he is very straightforward when it comes to guys. Girls have always wanted to know how guys think and what they want in a relationship. Luckily, my gay BFF has me covered. From bar hopping to serious relationships, he gives me the run down on what to do to snag the right guy, and if he thinks the guys isn't good for me you can bet he will speak up and reassure me that I can do better. He will tell me if the text I’m about to send is psycho or if my ex’s new girl is pretty or not.

The sassiness and sarcasm are what instantly bonded my best friend and me together. We sometimes come across as cold hearted bitches, but we really do care. Being able to joke around and having no filter is the best feeling ever. Some of our constant remarks are, “Oh… You sure you want to have another slice?” or “Darling, don't be a raging bitch.” To most people, those comments are offensive or rude, but to us, it’s causal talk with no hard feelings attached.

Without my gay best friend, I would be so bored and, let's face it, always questioning if my outfits are the right choice. He brings light and amusement into life -- I guess that’s why their symbol is a rainbow. I would highly suggest everyone finding a gay BFF.

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.
