Thank you for the way that we became friends. We may have met through mutual friends, but it was your quirky personality that made us become best friends. From using cheesy pick-up lines on me to make me laugh, to hugging me and not letting go, you made sure that you had my attention and made it clear that you wanted to be best friends with me.

Thank you for being fun-sized. You’re a good head shorter than me, and that doesn’t count when I’m wearing heels. Some people may pick on you for being short, but I love every inch of it. You and I are the perfect combination of heights for hugging. Speaking of hugs, thank you for your awesome koala hugs that I love so much. You are my person.

Thank you for being my biggest fan. You believe in me, no matter what I may be doing. When I’m confident, you’re there cheering me on; when I’m lacking confidence, you’re there to encourage me. No matter how much I don’t believe in myself at times, you are there to encourage me and lift me up. You make me see my talents and abilities in ways no one else can. You are my person.

Thank you for going through the long distance friendship with me. Being apart is never easy. There are days where we are apart and I just want to be with you. I know you’re only a phone call away, but sometimes phone calls don’t even help me missing you. Thank you for being there for me in those tough times, and always reminding me that we will see each other again soon. You are my person.

Thank you for letting me snuggle with you. Snuggling with your best friend can be one of the best stress reliefs, and definitely helps me relax. I’m not one of those people that is comfortable letting other people snuggle with me, but you’re my best friend so you’re literally the only person I allow to do it. You are my person.

Thank you for being wise beyond your years. You may be a few years younger than me, but you’re one of the wisest people I know. I can go to you needing advice and you always have the right thing to say. I value your opinion over almost anyone else’s. You are my person.

Thank you for your passion. Whenever you start talking about something you’re passionate about, you literally light up the room. Whatever you do, you put your whole heart to it, and it’s contagious. Whether it’s guitar, your studies, your obsession with gushers, or your love for Jesus, you invest your whole heart. Your beautiful, whole heart. You are my person.

Thank you for being my drama-free friend. We have gone through life struggles together, but I never associate you with drama. You have a level head, so you don’t get caught up in all the junk that causes drama. You’re the one I can go to and just be at peace with. As far as I can remember, we have only ever had one major disagreement; I don’t think we have ever gotten in a fight. You are my person.

Thank you for being the absolute best friend I’ve ever had in my life. I have had best friends before in my life, and I cherished each. However, you are one of those best friends that I will never be able to replace. I hope you are in my life for the rest of my life, cheesy pick-up lines and all. You will forever be my person.
