I hear all the time about how people rarely talk to their high school friends and to me that is weird as I still talk constantly to my high school friend group. Actually my high school friend group is my group of people. And there are many reasons why they are the best.

1. They have known you for so long

You don't have to pretend not to be weird.

2. You can complain about your hometown and not have to explain anything

3. There are so many memories that you kind of lost track

Sometimes you have to remind your friends, other times they have to remind you that yes you were there!

4. Any time you go home for break, you always have plans. Plus their house is like your second home.

Just walk on in and steal some food.

5. They were with you when you did THE embarrassing and stupid things

Part of you thought you were cool.

6. You survived drama, high school, going into adulthood and so much more together

Oh high school, I don't miss you.

7. Oh the inside jokes

You had to be there.

8. Experiencing many firsts together from first dances to the first relationship

Oh school dances, the sheer awkwardness just radiated from the room.

9. Awkward phases

I'm a great dancer, I have no idea what anyone is talking about.

10. Still loving you even though you go to a rival school

HAIL TO PITT!

11. Helping with life choices because your friends know you really well

Trying to decide a major is hard but your high school friends know you and usually know what future job might make you happy.

12. Being nostalgic anytime you look through photos or yearbooks

Let's not forget pointing out the people you loathed.

13. Seeing them again is the best!
