I loved reading this! My best friend and I have been 'besties' for about 35 years, since we were in school. Having a best friend is such a blessing - the unconditional love, the trust, the history, secrets, tears, laughter - and isn't it great to BE a best friend too?

That’s so lovely I love that you had a best friend like that in your life ❤️

I met my best friend in high school. However I didn’t like her because my friends didn’t (they are not my friends anymore while she’s awesome)

First day of uni I reluctantly started hanging out with her and others because we were from the same high school but I was still skeptical.

We decided to sit on a bench outside that day and a few minutes after we sat, we witnessed a gigantic bag of mayonnaise fall from the sky and being splashed on the head of the students underneath it. To this day we still cannot explain what the heck happened (I mean….. mayonnaise falls from the sky???) but it was our first (nervous - confused) laugh together.

A few weeks later, she invited us to have lunch (soup and coco pops) at her place after school. I hesitated but agreed.

I never left.
