7. Support
She’s present because she wants to be, not because you asked her. Whether this means stepping up as your plus-one to the lame office party or cheering you on during karaoke night, she’s got your back when you need her to, no questions asked.
Without the encouragement of our friends, we wouldn’t accomplish the borderline-dangerous, but provocatively fun things on our bucket lists, like cliff jumping, chatting up random strangers and getting lost on a road trips… er, what are friends for?!
8. Dependable
No matter how far gone you’ve gotten, or how low you’re feeling, she’s the one who cares and will see to it that you get back up.
You can do or say anything and she won’t behave any differently towards you, like when she found out that one terrible thing you did in high school and responded with, “That’s kind of genius, though.”
9. Thoughtful
Greeting you with Swedish Fish just because she knows they are your favorites or picking up an extra ticket for an upcoming concert because she knows you’d want to go. Your best friend has you in mind when it counts.
