A lot of times when girls are in relationships, their friends think they forget about them. That isn't always the case, though. Just because a girl spends a lot of time with her boyfriend doesn't mean that she forgot about the rest of her life.
For me, I wouldn't date someone that I didn't feel as comfortable with as I do my closest girlfriend.
I get that you still need your "girl time," and I know my boyfriend needs his "guy time", as well.
But there's nothing wrong with wanting to be with each other at the end of the day and being the last person we talk to every night.
For about the past year or so, my boyfriend and I have seen each other every day without fail.
Now, that's not to say that we haven't spent time with our friends away from each other because we have! We still go out with our friends by ourselves, and it's good to do that.
It's healthy for the relationship to spend some time apart. But at the end of the day, he's my best friend, and there's nothing wrong with always wanting to be with your best friend.
He brings out the best in me.
He knows how to make me smile when I'm feeling down.
He knows the stupid things he does that always make me laugh.
He knows how to love me unconditionally even when it may seem like I want nothing to do with him.
And that's what a best friend does.
A best friend is there for you no matter what.
A best friend picks you up when you feel like you can't carry the weight of your own despair.
A best friend knows the right way to make you laugh when it seems like nothing could ever make you smile again.
A best friend loves you for who you are, regardless.
So is my boyfriend my best friend?
Yes, he is.
And there's absolutely nothing wrong with that.
I don't know why other people feel the need to look down upon people in a relationship that want to always be with their significant other. If it makes me happy then why should it even matter to anyone else?
My boyfriend makes me happy and because of that, I want nothing more than to be with him as much as I can.
Believe me, there are times when we don't agree on things and where we need to step away from each other and come back when we've worked things out in our heads, but doesn't that also happen with your best friend that isn't your SO?
Your boyfriend shouldn't just be your companion and lover.
He should be the person you see yourself spending the rest of your life with.
And I want nothing more than to spend my life with my very best friend.
