1.
Life can be tough and things aren't always easy, which is why it's important to have good friends to get you through it all.
2.
Your friends make you feel less weird and alone.
3.
And should always encourage you to be your best self.
4.
They're the best people to go to when you need some help internet-stalking your crush.
5.
Or if you need to be consoled when your crush doesn't text you back.
6.
Let's be honest, sometimes you wish your best friend could just be your significant other.
7.
And at some point, you might have even tried to make that happen.
8.
Friendship is truly about quality, not quantity.
9.
It's also about finding the right people you can goof around and have fun with.
10.
Your friends should give you important life advice when you need it most.
11.
And they should always support you through whatever hardships you encounter.
12.
Even though you don't like to admit it, your BFF knows you better than you know yourself.
13.
They know the best ways to communicate with you and how to get in touch ASAP.
14.
True friends take the time to express their affection for one another.
15.
And always seem to know when you need a hug.
16.
They'd never miss an opportunity to have a night out on the town.
17.
Your friends will always have your back and look out for your best interests.
18.
And if things go sideways, they'll also be there to record the moment and embarrass you forever after.
19.
Which isn't all that terrible, since they also take part in the embarrassing moments along with you.
20.
Friendships aren't about being perfect all the time — in fact, your flaws and quirks can even bring you together.
21.
Because, if you're lucky enough, you'll have friends in your life who will love you no matter what.
