24 Signs You And Your Mom Are Actually The Gilmore Girls

"I need my mommy and, dammit, I don't care who knows it!"

1. You and your mom can talk about absolutely anything.

2. Seriously, no topic is off-limits between the two of you.

3. And, more often than not, no piece of clothing in your closet is off-limits either.

4. You rarely, if ever, feel the need to keep secrets from your mom.

5. Growing up, you always had the "cool mom" everyone was jealous of.

6. But she wasn't afraid to dish tough love, when needed.

7. Your mom instilled you with infallible morals that you'll carry with you for the rest of your life.

8. And, more importantly, that you must never compromise those morals.

9. All those wonderful, charming quirks you have are thanks to your mom.

10. And your social skills? Also thanks to your mom.

11. And those "social skills" include "throwing expert shade."

12. Whenever life throws you a curveball, there's only one person who can fix it.

13. When you two are together, people have trouble keeping up.

14. And only a select few really get your rapid-fire sense of humor.

15. You know that, no matter what, your mom will always be on your side. And you'll always be on hers.

16. You don't ever shy away from showing each other affection...

17. ...which can confuse people who aren't used to that level of warmth.

18. Sure, like every other mom and daughter duo, you guys get into fights...

19. ...but you know how to roll with the punches and reconcile.

20. There's no greater compliment than hearing, "You're just like your mom."

21. Some people just don't get how you can be so close to your mom, and ask what your secret is.

22. But there is no secret, you're just one of those lucky few people who won the mom lottery.

23. You're fortunate enough to have grown up with a mom who somehow managed to also be your best friend and role model.

24. And you just hope that, someday, you'll be even half the person she is.
