When you meet someone and fall in love, you can't help but want to spend most of your free time with him or her. And when you spend that much time with one person, and share a unique intimacy you don't share with anyone else, they become the person you trust more than anyone else. All these qualities are what you'd find in a best friend, but should your lover also be your BFF?

You and your closest friend have finally been fortunate enough to live in the same city for the past year, for the first time since high school. She moves around a lot and is always searching for the next best place. It’s been amazing having her around and your life feels full in a way you just can’t get from a boyfriend.

There's nothing like a best friend! The importance of having someone you can turn to and trust without a moment of hesitancy is infinitely important in this hectic world. But the friendship that you have with a best friend is more than just the day-to-day stuff, it’s also about the memories you create with one another along the way.

My relationship with my best friend of 15 years has been rocky for the last two. We have a lot of history together. I was there for her through thick and thin, and even helped her when she had her first child and the father was nowhere to be found!

I have a friend that I met at school; we became fast friends because we were in the same class. We've known each other for almost a year, yet I often feel we're not friends at all. Lately she has seemed extremely fake and insincere around me.

You’ve been close with your best friend since you were kids, and you’ve witnessed her love life every step of the way. After a difficult end to a doomed engagement, she’s been having a hard time moving on.
Next thing you know she’s taken up with a man 20 years older than her.

Whenever a problem should arise in a relationship, communication is nearly always the best method to finding the solution, but is that true for friendships as well? Friendships aren’t meant to be a challenge, so it seems almost counterintuitive to assume that there will be issues you have to work through, but as we all know, stuff does come up even between the best of friends. So when it does, do you just take the hands-off approach and let things work out (or not) naturally?

Today is National Friendship Day, so to celebrate, I want to take this opportunity to let you all talk about someone else — your best friend! As you all know, I've known mine since kindergarten, and she's actually become more like a sister to me. She's the first person I go to with anything because no matter what, I know she'll support me, listen to me, and offer a shoulder to cry on.

Long-distance relationships are tough, but so are long-distance friendships! If you're lucky enough to have your best friend living in the same town, you probably get to see her pretty regularly. But it can be tough — and potentially expensive — when BFFs live halfway across the country or world.

A couple months ago, my best friend met this guy at a party. They hit it off immediately, and since then, they hooked up a couple times. She was really falling for him, but she told me how she got this vibe from him that he wanted to keep things secret.
