A woman can live without a man but most certainly not without her best friend(s).  As all girls know, the chemistry of a friend group is a precarious thing and very precious indeed. It is essential to have the “squad goals”. Pretty amazing how friendships are very important in our lives  You need a careful mix of people, all with different personalities, interests and quirks, to keep things fun and in balance. Whether you feel like baking heart-shaped cupcakes or jetting off to Sin City, it’s nice to have a partner in crime ready to join you. Girls are upright lucky if they are surrounded by such beautiful souls and also that one friend to pour your heart out, 

Here are the four best friends every girl needs in her life: 

1. The Ultimate Partner

This partner is easy to talk to; she carries great conversations but also knows when it’s okay to just shut up and be silent. Her advice not only makes you feel better, but also has a way of putting life into perspective, reminding you that your problems aren’t so big and bad after all. Even when a problem arises in your life and you just need a shoulder to cry on. This person is totally loveable and trustworthy. Nevertheless, they know you very well at the back of their heads of how to make you happy and make you smile and also hold your back and do some ass kicking if anything goes wrong.

She is practically the “lesbian” partner of yours. And if people didn’t know any better, they may get it wrong and believe you guys are actually together!

But it is not like that it is just the intimate bond and connection that you both share that you makes ya’ll very close to each other. You find for this person when you are down, when you are happy, when you are worried, when you fret, when a guy breaks your heart. Your ALL IN ALL. In fact, you guys share so much inside jokes that people actually get confused at your jokes.

Anddd not to mention that this is the one you do all your quicky and weird things with. There is NO shame between you two.

2. The Up-For-Anything Party Animal

When you feel like ripping tequila shots in a bathroom bar stall, it’s best not to do it alone. That’s when this friend comes into play.. going out on a Tuesday? No problem. Random concert on the side of town? Sure thing. Crop tops and printed leggings? All day, every day. The ever ready person to have fun with!

The up-for-anything friend is, literally, always up for anything. When you feel like being spontaneous, this girl is never more than a text message or call away. Having someone around who always goes with the flow and naturally seeks out a good time makes the crazy adventures in life that much crazier.

Orrr you guys can just dance it out in the car. It really doesn’t matter.

3. The Second Mom

This is the friend who keeps you out of trouble, or at least puts forth a valiant effort. She’s the one who knows how to cook, who give the wisest advice and is always the most honest ones of all. They are the ones who will tell you like it is, no matter how hurtful it may be to you.  The second mom will remind you to eat your meds when you’re sick, say no to any stupid ideas you may have as any young adult would and will always let you know when you’re being a complete ass in public.

Just like your real mom, the second mom is usually always right and gives it to you straight, even when it might not be exactly what you want to hear. Like when that dress you’re wearing should actually be worn as a shirt. Yeah, we’ve all been there.

4. The Travel Partner

Similar to the up-for-anything gal, this friend loves to travel, even in a moment’s notice. What sets her apart is her ability to organize details, execute plans, read maps and do it as if it were all just an afterthought. Bonus points if she speaks multiple languages. The travel partner is an easy going, very fun person indeed. This comes in handy on long road trips when everyone in the car no longer feels like having human interaction.Wiser than her years, this friend is very mature and has the ability to calm even the most high-strung, hyper-anxious of us all.

5. The Toughy

This is the girl who says things right in your face, sometimes it may come out a little rude but you know she means no harm. This girl doesn’t filter her words and say whatever she thinks but you learn to love her for it.

Hey, better to say it in your face than behind your back right?

She can be pretty reckless at times, taking things and acting by the moment. But you know you would not have it any other way. Even she appears tough most of the time, you know deep down she has a soft and loving side.

She is also the toughy who vouches to smack any guy in the balls if they ever try to hurt you.
