Whether you made friends at uni or met online, your favourite folks may live on the other side of the country or the world but no distance could ever come between you. Sure it’s hard sometimes, but who wouldn’t want a best friend like yours? Here’s seven awesome things about your long distance bestie… add your own in the comments!!
// When you see each other, it’s like you were never apart. There’s never a lull in conversation and you don’t need to spend time catching up on each other’s lives because you constantly stalk each other on social media.
// Random one line texts and Facebook messages reminding you of a private joke make your whole freaking day. Messages make you burst out laughing at work, but no one could ever explain why they’re so funny outside of the group. Inevitably your colleagues think you’re a massive weirdo.
// You can have the best time chatting online without even leaving the sofa or getting dressed. Your Facebook messages are full of sticker wars and thank God for Skype calls. Ain’t technology grand!?
// Every time you see your long distance bestie you get presents!! Meeting up is always for someone’s birthday or you’re catching up from Christmas. Your friendship just becomes opening presents and eating cake!
// When you do see each other you make so much more of an effort to do something fun. There’s always a new bar or super tasty restaurant to take them to when they visit and you just have to stay up late chatting to make the most of your time together.
// When you hang out, you practically live with each other. You really appreciate the simple things because they are so rare, like watching TV in your jammies together. They also make the best nap partners.
// There are so many more excuses for holidays! Forget the diet, you’re on holiday. Sure you can go on that shopping spree, you’re on holiday. Let’s order another bottle of wine, we’re on holiday!
