Be Completely Honest With Each Other

The number one rule of being a true best friend is that you have to be completely upfront and honest with each other. A great example of this in the show is when Peyton admitted to Brooke that Lucas said he wanted to see Brooke next to him when his dreams came true. As much as it hurt P. Sawyer to say it, she knew that B. Davis needed to know.

06
Make Time For Best Friend Adventures

Even if you have busy schedules or live long-distance now, Brooke and Peyton showed you and your bestie that you always need to make time for adventures. Just like when this duo took Brooke's dad's boat out for the day, and had their own fun. You and your BFF need to plan as many Sunday brunches, road trips, and beach getaways as possible.
