15 Signs Your Mom Is Your Best Friend

You can communicate without saying a word, and it's almost impossible to lie to one another.

1. She's the first person you call when something good happens.

The WB

But also when something bad happens to you. Actually, she's one of the few people you ever call.

2. Most people ask their moms for permission. You ask for advice.

ABC

Like any good friend, she listens to you and tells you what she thinks is best, but she never judges you because she respects you. <3

3. You talk about hotties.

ABC

From the TV character you like, to your real-life crush, you've told her about them all.

4. She protects you from other authority figures.

Universal Pictures

For example, from your dad. Ever since you were a kid, she taught you that sometimes there's nothing wrong with breaking some rules and she has even helped you do it from time to time.

5. You borrow each other's clothes.

HBO Films

Your mom borrows your sweaters, you borrow her dresses — it's not at all strange, you just have very similar tastes.

6. You can communicate with each other without saying a word.

Pantelion Films

She's known you all your life and you've known her for a good chunk of hers. You can carry out entire conversations through meaningful looks alone.

7. It's almost impossible for you to lie to one another.

FX

There's nothing like you saying "nothing's wrong, mom" for your mom to know that something's up. But you also know when her "don't worry, daughter" is hiding something.

8. You've gotten drunk together.

Universal Pictures

It may not have been at a raging party, or even at a family dinner, but you've definitely done this at least once in your life. (And you probably ended up laughing till your sides were hurting from jokes that only the two of you will get.)

9. She likes everything you post.

Paramount Pictures

Photos, status updates, even stuff that you know she has no idea about — no matter what it is, she likes it.

10. You're brutally honest with one another.

Walt Disney Pictures

She tells it to you like it is, and you do the same for her. But sweetly, of course. :)

11. You celebrate each other on Valentine's Day.

Universal Pictures

Forget significant others. Your bond is so strong, there can never be enough excuses to celebrate your friendship and the love you have for each other. (Oh, and to give each other gifts!)

12. You're still learning from her.

Warner Bros.

Many of the things you know and that you like the most about yourself, you learned from her.

13. And you motivate her to do things that she never dared to do.

Twitter: @valebernal11

You're that little push that she needed to accomplish some of her wildest and simplest dreams.

14. Your other friends love her.

Universal Pictures

She's spent entire afternoons with you all, as if she were just one more friend in the group.

15. People are always surprised at the amazing friendship that you both have.

Screen Media Films

Nothing to do but feel exceptionally lucky and carry on loving each other unconditionally. <3
