Friends are very important in life. Human beings are social creatures and sometimes your family is not enough to satisfy your friendship needs. It is very important to have close friends throughout life, especially at different stages of life.
It is true that you have to be a great friend to have a great friend.
With that in mind, here are 7 friends you should have in your life:
1. The cheerleader
The cheering friend is one who will support you and your dreams, no matter what. They are in your corner and ready to cheer you on. Your Cheerleader is the one who’s likely to give you a pep talk when you’re feeling really low and need someone to remind you how awesome you really are.
2. The hipster
The Hipster Friend is the one who is younger than you and knows all the latest trends, what’s hot and what’s hot this year. This friend doesn’t make you feel old, but he tells you what you need to know to stay current and cool in today’s society. This is also the kind of friend that you can tell stories about when you were in style and they will understand what you mean. They keep you informed and make you feel young and modern.
3. The Mentor
The Mentor Friend is someone you go to when you need advice. This friend always seems to know what you need to hear and when you need it. They will tell you the truth about what works in the real world. They will guide you because they have been there and they have done it. They have your best in mind and they don’t want you to go through the trials and tribulations that they did. They have some things figured out and are very happy to share their wisdom with you.
4. The Comedian
The Comedian Friend is the friend you go to when you need a good laugh. They will brighten your day with the craziest stories that will make you hug yourself from laughing so hard. They can make you laugh no matter what. Even if your aunt died that day. They will find something funny in every situation. And since laughter really is the best medicine, after being your Comedian Friend you feel so much better just being with them.
5. The pusher
The Pusher Friend is there for you when you need a push. There’s a bit of tough love because The Pusher Friend knows we’ll come up with all kinds of excuses, but they see through our excuses. They make us go through the things of life. Without the Pusher, we might not have applied for that latest promotion or that new job or bought that plane ticket and we might not have had a wonderful time on our last vacation. They push you to be dissatisfied with the status quo.
6. The translator
The translator is the friend of the opposite sex who has only the best platonic intentions for you. They are able to translate the words and actions of the opposite sex for you when you have no idea what it means. Because they are of the opposite sex, they will translate the language of men and women for you. They help you navigate the waters with the opposite sex.
7. The best friend
Everyone needs a best friend in their life. This is the friend who stays by your side no matter what. Your best friend is the first person you call when you just dumped you and the only person you call to get you out of jail because he will be there for you. Because they know that you are also there for them. They will help you with the move, they will pick you up at the airport, they will remember your birthday every year and they will always be there for you. Your best friend knows you and you know them. Your best experiences in life are with your Best Friend.
We all need to remember that our friends are very important in our lives, but to have a friend, you have to be a friend.
