10 Important Things To Thank Your Bestie For That You May Take For Granted

by Kristin Corpuz

Your bestie is there for you through thick and thin, and sometimes, you can communicate with each other with just a simple look. Whether they're holding your dress up when you have to use the restroom at a formal event, or helping you retrace your steps to find your misplaced phone, your bestie never fails to show you how much they care. But because you both know each other so well and you're always together, you sometimes forget just how much they do for you. Here are some important things to thank your best friend for that you may take for granted without even knowing it.

It goes without saying, but your bestie knows how much you appreciate them. They know that you'll always have their back the same way they have yours. But every once in a while, it would be nice to thank them and show them how much you appreciate them. You can take them out for dinner, gift them a thoughtful little something, or even just say "thank you" out loud. They'll be so touched, and it will only help your friendship grow even stronger than it was before.

If your BFF does any of these things for you, you'll definitely want to thank them ASAP.

Your bestie always knows what's best for you, even if you can't see it for yourself. If they see that you're putting your dreams on hold, they're always quick to help you get back on track. They're also your first line of defense if someone isn't treating you the way you deserve to be treated.

From helping you find your phone, to grabbing your mail when you're out of town, to reminding you of important upcoming events, your bestie helps keep you on track. To be honest, they may very well know your schedule better than you do at times.

Laughter is the best cure for a lot of things, and no one makes you laugh harder than your bestie does. They're always there to put a smile on your face, especially when you're having a stressful day.

09
They (Arguably) Know You Better Than You Know Yourself

You and your BFF can finish each other's sentences, and oftentimes, it's kind of scary how well they know you. They know some of the decisions you're going to make before you even decide to make them. For example, when your friend group wants to hit up the bars on a Friday night after you've had a super busy work week, your bestie knows to tell them the two of you are going to hang in, relax, and order some pizza.

They Support You Endlessly
