She tells it like it is, for better or worse, but usually for the better.

She's the one calling you late at night, crying over something or another . . . again.

It's hard to get her to open up, but it's really, really rewarding when she finally does.

You are complete opposites, but it totally works for both of you because you complement each other perfectly.

She's always looking for something new and exciting to do and try — even if it isn't entirely risk-free.

This girl is forever worried that she is missing out on something, even though she never actually is.

You love her, and she loves you, but she is keeping her eye on the prize and will stop at nothing to get it.

She is good at lightening the mood or adding much-needed wit to your otherwise dull day.

She tends to blow things out of proportion. Like, way out of proportion.

They are the essence of cool. They are kind of prophetic — they seem to know what's going to be in style long before it actually is.

You have fun together, but you and her both know that, if things got tough, you'd both probably bow out.

You tell her your problems — she provides you with answers.

Sometimes it's like having your mom around.

You know that when you're 80, you will be sitting on a front porch together, sipping lemonade and talking about the good old days.
