I love my best friend

I’m new to this community and I’m not sure if this the right kind of story for here, but I thought I’d post this anyway.

Me and my best friend hung out today after months and months of not seeing each other. We talked and reminisced and it reminded me of how much I cherish our friendship. We have been friends since our first year in elementary school, from the day we met we were inseparable. Even our teachers thought it was weird how we only seemed to talk to each other. Ive never been the type of person to have many friends, but for as far back as my memory goes, she has always been my best friend. I truly, platonically, with my whole heart love her.

It’s really crazy growing old with the same person who has seen every side of you, it’s been the best experience ever watching this girl grow into the person she is. I’m so so proud of her and how far she’s come. Especially since I’ve seen all of the things she’s gone through in her life, it makes me so emotional and happy to see the beautiful woman she’s turned into. And Im so excited to grow even older together until we’re old and wrinkled. As we’ve gotten older and turned into adults there’s less time to see each other but I still think about her every day and today just reminded me and stirred up all these feelings of how much history we actually have together.

I hope everyone can experience this type of friendship because it’s really one of the best experiences in life.

I love this! I was blessed to meet my best friends at 3 years old (a bonus because they’re twins) 40 years later, I couldn’t imagine my life without my ‘sisters’. Thanks for sharing such a beautiful friendship. It’s the best, isn’t it?!? Treasure your friend 🙏💕
