Having a guy best friend rocks. Seriously. Believe it or not, it is possible for a guy and a girl to be just friends. Of course, having your girl friends is amazing but there is just something about having a guy as your best friend that is special to have.

Every girl should have a guy best friend and this is why:

1. They'll tell you how it is.

If you want to know how your hair is, how a dress looks on you, if this guy is right for you, your guy best friend won't hesitate to tell you the truth. You may not like the truth but he’s doing it for your best interest.

2. He'll always be down to eat.

You want Chipotle? He’ll be down. Late night food run? Quick text… He’ll be down. Best of all, he never judges how much you eat.

3. He'll help you understand how a boy thinks.

Everyone knows that girls and guys' thoughts are the complete opposite. But thank God for him being able to help you out and understand a guy's mind and reasons behind their actions a little better.

4. He's protective.

He’ll act like a big brother. He can joke around with you but at the end of the day, no one is allowed to mess with you because he’ll be there to make sure of it.

5. He'll give you amazing advice.

He knows how guys work. He knows how you work. He has a way of telling you what you need to hear and helping your problems seem easier to handle.

6. He'll listen to you vent.

As much as he may not want to, and he may even block out what you're saying half of the time, he always lets you vent to him.

7. The hugs rock.

Most guys are great huggers and there is nothing more comforting then your best friend giving you a hug when you're sad or happy.

8. No judgment.

Best of all, having a guy best friend means that you can be your complete self around him 24/7. You don't need to worry about how your hair looks, if your makeup is done or what you wear around him because chances are he doesn't really care. You can be your complete self around him knowing he'll never judge and it's the best feeling ever.

Nothing compares to having a guy best friend. He’ll get to know you better then anyone else and you're completely OK with that because you know he won't hurt you. Your family starts to take him in as their own because of how close you two are. You two have seen each other at your worst and at your best. You know how to pick each other up when you're down and make them a better them.

So thank you to my guy best friend. Thank you for making me feel good when I’m at my worst. Thank you for making me laugh when all I want to do is cry. Thank you for singing at the top of your lungs in the car with me. But most importantly, thank you for loving me for me.
