Best Friends
Everyone has a best friend that is crazy, overly candid, and someone who is the heavenly mix. These best friends are always there, no matter what. There are certain qualities that make these friends attractive to become potential friends to other people, even though they have their flaws and differences between each other. Their characteristics are what mold them as each special person and often times, their attributes are what everyone acknowledges each kind of best friend for.
The first type is the wild friend and this person is a whole adventure jumbled and mixed into one being. The well-known trait of being rowdy explains why they are the epitome of teenage rebellion and mischievous entertainment. The type of character leads these kind of people to experience life in an entirely new way. The growing knowledge of who was the current vape god or who was throwing the best Halloweekend party is astounding. The constant late nights hanging out with older friends irritates their parents, but a single care in the world could not be found. Singing at the top of their lungs and dancing at a red light while driving reveals how completely content their heart is. Sometimes, this kind of friend attempts to mask their apparent identities with prosthetic confidence. The consistent motto that runs through the mind is “rules were made to be broken”. The free spirit and happy youth almost blanketed the careless attitude about living. This person will always be around to surprise others with their outstanding lifestyle to collect attention from others. Everything this person desires establishes the mindset of being carefree and incredibly daring in their daily routine.
Secondly, this companion is not as modest as they might think themselves to be. This best friend’s definition of character is described as being as rude or too honest. They can tell a mother who to raise her child, although the experience of being a mother is nonexistent to this friend. Criticizing words interrupt an intense movie scene to correct the actress on her “horrible” acting skills. A chef would think these types of friends to be the official food critic according to the essay left on the restaurant’s Yelp page about who the dish could be more colorful. Harsh notes on a person’s windshield about parking correctly. “Do not be an awful driver. Do not park next to me. Do not be stupid.” Criticism always ends up where it’s not wanted and is this person’s known trait, but it was blatant honesty. Acting as impolite or coarse, this friend is completely oblivious to the words that blurt out of their mouth until someone addresses the issue to them. Candor is a gift that is received at birth and it’s noticeable when the person is being kind-hearted or being naturally clueless. The integrity is honestly meant to be seen as good advice and criticism. Wise words such as, “Never let a fool kiss you — or let a kiss fool you.” Amiable advice is confided upon this person as her advice is true to heart.
Lastly, the dependable friend is the happy mixture of the two friends. With her loyal character, this type of friend is the best personality. The characteristic of being encouraging is what appeals to others’ attention. What defines this friend as trustworthy is the ability they have to always make people smile, laugh, and have a good day. Words of comfort in hard times are reassuring. A selfless act a day is enough for this kind of friend and many groups of various people appreciate her for that fact. When they’re not giving people a hand, spending time with their closest friends and having fun is their livelihood. These types of people have symbiotic relationships with everyone around them. A dependable companion is important to have in one’s life as it establishes balance and strong friendship.
