11 Reasons To Love Your Long-Distance BFF
1) You can go weeks without talking to her, but when you do, it’s like nothing has changed
Time might pass in the midst of your busy lives, but she always makes time for you. You can easily pick up your Bachelor conversation right where it left off.
2) She’s the first person to like/comment on all your social media posts
You can always count on her to stalk your Instagram down to the minute you post a new photo. Occasionally, she’ll go on a Facebook spree, invading your phone with hundreds of notifications.
3) You vent to her about your roommates
Whether someone wouldn’t take out the trash, or took your clothes out of the dryer before they were ready, she’s always willing to lend an ear.
4) The moment you reunite is the best feeling in the world
Equivalent to cookie dough-covered rainbows dipped in glitter and sunshine, seeing your BFF for the first time in months is eternally perfect.
5) Planning future trips to visit her is the best
Although FaceTime is a great option, a $300 plane ride is sometimes worth the splurge. Whether it’s one week or six months away, you’re already thinking about the adventures you’ll take in her city.
6) She’s the only one who listens to you go on about your crush for hours without tuning you out
It could be the cutie in your Chemistry lab or your teaching assistant with the crystal blue eyes. Your BFF doesn’t care! She wants every juicy detail.
7) She makes all of your college friends jealous
Even though they’ve never met her, your college friends know that she’s basically perfect and will try even harder to fill her shoes.
8) You always have someone to text
When you don’t see your best friend every day, there is so much more to update her on! And you can continuously count on her to be excited with you, no matter how insignificant the news.
9) Coming home is even better because of her
Holiday and summer breaks are even more exciting when you get to see your best friend after months of being apart. She makes “home sweet home” an even sweeter place.
10) She makes you proud of yourself
No matter how horribly you handled a break up or how crazy you acted at a party, your BFF doesn’t judge. Instead, she accepts you and reminds you of the strong, beautiful, and amazing woman you are.
11) Even though living apart totally sucks, your friendship is stronger because of it
Once you leave high school, the people who you thought were your closest friends naturally drift away. That’s just life. It’s true friends who will keep making the effort to stay connected. Long-distance BFFs can stand the test of time, because the friendship is real and genuine.
