How can you tell if someone is a friend or a real bestie? Well, for starters, a true friend is someone who finds their way back to you, even if you're apart for a while. This person will always have your best interests at heart, even when the truth isn’t what you want to hear. Sometimes, answering a few questions in the form of a quiz is all that it takes to help figure out if you're really best friends or not.
Your true bestie would never keep you out late when they know you have a big test the next day, tell you to pursue your crush when they know they’re a jerk, or tell you that the first Homecoming dress is better than the second when it's not. You're a permanent staple on their TikTok and always up in their Instagram captions. Plus, they're always down to meet up for a movie night, pizza dinner, or a shopping trip and are the person you tell your deepest secrets to knowing they won't tell a soul.
You probably already know whether your friend is a true BFF, but if you want to find out for sure, take the best friend quiz below to find out how strong your friendship really is.
If you answered mostly with the left…
You’re close friends! You’ve been there for some major life moments and milestones and although you’ve really clicked, you aren’t quite #BFFs. Maybe you need to practice being more vulnerable in the relationship to help form a deeper connection. Or, maybe you need to take the time to tell your friend how much they mean to you.
If you answered mostly with the right…
You two are basically soulmates. You constantly make the effort to show how much you value your friendship. You’re honest with each other and are there for all of the the ups and downs. You both plan to make this friendship last a lifetime, so you might as well start looking at joint retirement packages now.
