How You Know You Found Your Forever Friend

Sometimes the title "best friend" does'nt do it justice

How You Know You Found Your Forever Friend
Summer Davis

In college you meet so many people. And when I say so many, I literally mean you pass by a new face every time you step foot outside on campus. If you are one of the lucky ones, you have met your forever friend out of these many faces. Some call it a best friend, but I call it a forever friend for a specific purpose. Personally, I find that I have a few very close friends that I refer to as best friends, so the word best friend just doesn’t do this position justice. Here are some signs that you have met your forever friend.

1. You can’t go a day without talking

Almost like having a significant other, you and your forever friend never go a day without talking. Whether this is laying in each other’s beds talking about what outfits you are going to wear out that night and the exact order of frats that you are going to hit. It could be Face timing everyday on summer break, ranting about how your mom tried to give you a curfew and how much you miss campus. Either way, you two are always in the loop.

2. Everyone refers to you as * insert name * and * insert name *

Let’s be real, you cant go anywhere without people wondering where your other half is. For example, goes it sorority chapter alone “* name *is coming, right?” Goes to frat party “Did * name * go home this weekend?” Eats on campus alone, “Oh I’ve never seen you without name *!’...Honestly, you get use to it.

3. There are zero secrets

And yes, this included even the most disgusting details that you really didn’t NEED to know.

4. You are brutally honest with each other

Who else is supposing to tell you your outfit looks bad or to redo your hair? These kinds of friends always have your back, with the best intentions in mind.

5. You have way too many pictures

What should I post on instagram? The one of us on spring break? The one from formal? What about the cute laughing one from that one party? Selfie of us maybe?

6. You are overly protective of each other

Anyone messes with my friend, they mess with me. Your forever friend is someone who will always back you up and stand by you.

7. * Get’s in an argument for ten minutes * * Spends the next 15 minutes laughing about how stupid the argument was *

8. Weird names in each other’s phones

This goes without much explanation, but are we really friends if you don’t have the most embarrassing name possible for me in your contacts????

9. Their food is your food

A true friend pigs out with you without judgment.

10. Someone that supports you endlessly

No matter the circumstance, your forever friend will support you and love you endlessly.

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.
