16 Signs You've Found Your Best Friend Forever ...

Most times there’s only one person that immediately pops into your head when something good happens in your life. For some, that could be their significant other. However, if you’re single, you’re most likely going to call your best friend first. And even if you are in a relationship, who’s the first person you call after your SO? That person is most likely very important to you because you know she's ready to share in your big moment and that's one of the best signs you've found your best friend forever.

Perhaps more than when something good happens, we really get to see who our best friend is in difficult situations. The first person you want to call when something bad happens is the person you think will give you the most comfort and the best advice.

If you’ve ever been mocked in front of other people and your best friend sticks up for you or tells them off for you, she's here to stay.

If you ask your best friend how a dress looks on you and she always give an honest answer because she wants to make sure you pick the perfect one, she's a keeper. It could be something as simple as that or telling you she doesn’t think your new boyfriend is a good fit, respectfully, of course.

You can always tell when someone respects you because it means they look up to you in a certain way. Mutual friends find things to admire about each other. For one it could be confidence and for another it could be kindness.

Knowing what the other person is about to say is a true sign of knowing each other very well. It means you’ve spent enough time together that you are on the same wavelength for the most part.

She doesn’t pick up and leave when she sees that you’re having a hard time. She sticks it through because you matter to her.

If she's busy doing something but you call her, most times she’ll drop everything to listen to you, even if she was in the middle of something important. She might even tell her boyfriend to wait while she talks to you.

You don’t ever have to worry about losing touch with your best friend because you both pick up the phone the same amount of time. You also both miss each other when you don’t see each other for a certain period of time and almost simultaneously express your need to hang out.

A true test of friendship is trust. You know she's not going to embarrass you by saying anything out loud or to anyone else. What you said stays between you and the person you told.

If she says she's going to meet you at the mall at 11:30 on Friday, she means it. She doesn’t bail on your plans. If she says she's gonna call you later and doesn’t forget, she's someone worth keeping around.

You truly believe that she has your best interest at heart. So when you ask her for advice, you believe she's doing the best she can to help you. You also respect her opinion, meaning you will listen to what she has to say and most likely take that advice and use it.

It’s true that time flies when you’re having fun. If you feel invigorated after spending time with a person, it means she speaks to your heart, and she's going to be around for a long while.

You care about each other enough that it’s important to tell each other to be safe when traveling, especially on a plane. And you tell each other to text the second you land.

If you’re a big sports fan but your friend isn’t, but she still manages to hear you rant about that horrible call from last night’s game, she's a good friend…a REALLY good friend. Not everyone can take listening to things they don’t understand for too long, but if she puts up with it, she's a good person.

Your best friend knows where you want to be in a few years because you’ve talked about long range plans with her…and she's in it. Maybe you’ve talked about dorming together or going over to each other’s apartments or traveling somewhere. Knowing that you’re in each other’s future is a sure way to know the friendship will last a lifetime.
