We may not have been friends at birth, but being friends since we were 6 or middle school already seems like forever to me! You know me way better than I know myself sometimes. You know my deepest secrets, as well as all the celebrities I would love to date!
I have cried with you and thankfully laughed with you many more times. We have had our ups and downs but through everything, I know that you are the one who will always be around. We are apart with school but when we finally talk to each other it's like we never missed a beat! Calling on the phone has not gone extinct probably because of us! Talking for hours never seems like enough time and even if we did talk every day we would still always find something new to say!
As my best friend, you have taught me to take chances and you have taught me to forget what people may think. You constantly push me out of my comfort zone and I could never be more grateful! After dancing and playing Marco Polo in Target, I don't think I have been judged by more people ever. Through you, I have learned how to truly be myself even if people are looking.
I know that I will never be alone and that my family is not the only family I have. Through every snarky remark and eye roll, we have made it out of those crazy teen years and into our adult lives. Soon we will be even further from each other; as we embark on our lives after school. Even though we were never at the same university, I feel that it was tie holding us together. I know that nothing will change and we will always be a best friend.
When my world seemed to be crumbling around me, as it has on multiple occasions, I knew I could count on you to help me hold it up. And when your world was crumbling, I was by your side — not because I had to pay you back but because you are my best friend and when you are hurting I am too. I have never known a person who could read minds until I met you! You have been able to know exactly what I am thinking and knew how to tell me! You constantly remind me of who I am and who I am going to be by not telling me what I wanted to hear but telling me what I needed to hear.
Thank you for allowing me to become a part of your family — and I apologize that you are now a part of mine. Not only do I know you will forever be by my side, but I know that I will always have your family as a support system alongside mine. And you must know that myself and my family are always here rooting you on!
Know that I appreciate your friendship. It seems like you have already been a part of my life forever, and I hope that forever continues on and on. Our personal families will grow and we will grow along with them and I cannot wait for that moment. Best friends forever is an understatement. Thank you for this forever and the future forever, I could not do this without you!
