The person you’d have late-night phone calls with,
gossip about how strict your parents were, and coordinate outfits with.
While a lot has changed when you think about best friends in the ’90s versus today,
the fundamentals remain the same: you still spend late nights on the phone with your BFF,
still gossip, and still coordinate outfits but pretend it was an accident.
Really, things aren’t all that different after all. We’re just older and drink more wine.
Best friends are like the siblings we never had, or maybe we did have siblings
but didn’t like them much. While your siblings stole your favorite
toys and ran around outside with your training bra on their head (cough happened to a friend…),
your best friend was the one you’d make prank calls with and the shoulder
to cry on when you saw your crush holding hands with someone else on the playground.
We wouldn’t be where we are without our best friends
— both back in the ’90s and to this day, even though times may have changed a bit.
The Fights We Get Into
In the ’90s: Your BFF promised to take care of your digital
pet while you were on vacation, and then she let it die. You couldn’t look at her the same after that.
Today: Adults don’t really fight anymore. Instead,
we leave passive-aggressive comments on Facebook and purposely don’t like each other’s Instagram posts.
