11 Things You'll Know To Be True If You're The "Fun" Friend

You don't just bring the party; you are the party...and a whole lot more.

1. No matter what your friends are doing, when you join in, it always gets silly.

Before you arrive: Everyone’s sipping coffee and looking at their phones. After you arrive: Everyone's ordering drinks, laughing, and telling their wildest stories.

2. You rarely miss a party or other fun event...

You love to entertain a whole crowd at once, so parties are basically your natural habitat: i.e. an awesome opportunity to share your stories and dance moves with loads of people.

3. ...but if you do miss one, people get pretty mad at you.

With great powers of entertainment comes great responsibility. If (heavens forbid) you can’t make it along, your friends lose it. After all, it won’t be fun without you.

4. You’re the friend who always comes up with the best (and most creative) ideas for fun things to do.

No one is ever bored when you’re around; it’s simply not possible. You can come up with a plan for every occasion, and you know about every single upcoming event in the whole area. You're basically a local news website for your friends.

5. You're always prepared for any last-minute plans.

Group chat @ 5:59pm: Let's hang out tonight?

You @ 6pm: Already on my way. Bringing the drinks.

6. You’re constantly restless for the next big group adventure.

Holidays with your besties are basically your favourite thing on Earth: You get to hang out with them 24/7, try new things, plan wild and hilarious activities – essentially, it’s your time to shine.

7. Your boundless energy and sense of fun can (sometimes) slightly annoy other people...

It can be a little hard to understand when other people don't automatically share your enthusiasm for things, your sense of humour, or your lust for adventure.

8. ...but your very best friends are the ones who totally get you, and support your decisions.

Your true friends are happy to get swept up in your boundless enthusiasm, optimism, and exciting plans. They're the ones who immediately say "hell yeah, I'll bungee-jump with you!" or surprise you with a shark dive on your birthday.

9. You're not afraid to look pretty damn silly in the pursuit of fun, either.

Being able to laugh at yourself and how ridiculous you are, is another reason why you're so good at making others smile.

10. In short, your friends’ lives would be way, way more dull without you.

Sure, keeping up with you can be a bit tiring at times, but who wants to look back when they’re old and realise they missed a chance to have a good time? No one! Life’s way too short.

11. And they know you’re the best...which is why they’re your friends!

After all, where would they be without you? There'd be no one to tag them in funny memes, send them hilarious Snapchats, and gatecrash parties with.
