"I'm selfish, impatient and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to handle. But if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best." - Marilyn Monroe
So this week we've talked about friends and what makes a best friend. I think the coolest thing is that you can have a variety of friends for different reasons. Here are some of the best friends I think a FG can have...
Supportive Sister - Some of you have said that your BFF is the best because she is loyal, and she is always there for you when you need her. She is the girl who lets you cry on her shoulder, who will always listen, whether it's boy drama or school issues. She's your biggest cheerleader in everything you do.
Funny Friend - No matter what, she knows how to make you laugh. When you are down, she makes you forget you were in a bad mood. And you two have craziest adventures ever. It's like you never grew up. . . in a good way.
Busy Bud - This girl is always going somewhere, doing something. She seems to know people everywhere. It might make you feel like you can't keep up, but don't. The awesome thing about her is she can always show you something to do and help you meet new people. She helps you expand your circle.
The Twin - Most of us don't really have a twin (although I wish I did!). But it can be so fun to have someone who seems to love the same things as you - same clothes, same music, same TV shows. That way, you'll always have someone to watch the new episode of Hannah Montana or go to the Taylor Swift concert with you.
Family Friend - Maybe your family is so crazy sometimes, you hope you aren't actually related to them. But it's cool if you can find someone - an aunt, a cousin, a brother - who you can talk to the way you'd talk to a friend. You know for sure that they'll always be there for you when you need to talk, and it can be nice to get an outside opinion. You might be surprised how not-crazy their advice is.
So that barely scratches the surface - there are so many fabulous kinds of friends you can have. Think about yours - what makes them so special? What kind of friend are you, FG?
