The 7 Different Types of Friends

Hey!  Just checking in with a little listicle about friendship.  Without further ado, here are the 7 different types of friends.

1. The One You’ve Known Forever

This friendship is at least a decade old.  You know everything about this friend, and they know everything about you.  Chances are, they’ve spent way too much time in your house and they’re on a first name basis with your parents.  If that’s not bad enough, they know every embarrassing story about you in the history of your entire life.  You’ll probably always stay friends because they know too much to be set free.

2. The Friend that gets your type of weird

This is a friend that is on your level.  They know your brand of awful, morbid humor, and, even worse, they encourage it.  The inside jokes are endless.  You have a way of communicating your dark humor even when there’s other people in the room.  It’s like your own special, special language.  With this friend it doesn’t matter what you do when you hang out, because you’ll end up having fun anyways.

3. The Friend that’s too nice to you

Please tell me this isn’t just me.  You have a friend that you really like, but they’re just too nice.  You feel sort of ashamed about vulgarity around them, to the point where you try to turn it down a little.  Your colorful jokes and extra quirky anecdotes would likely just make this friend a little uncomfortable.  But they’re just so nice and sweet!

4. Your Vulgar Friends

On the other side of the spectrum, you have your friends that use a variety of swear words as if they’re assorted cheeses.  They cuss, they don’t sugarcoat anything, and they’ll always be loyal to you.  If you’re anything like me, you feel at home with these people, even if they sometimes manage to out-vulgar you.

5. Your Similar Interests Friend

I know that this is the base of most friendships, but some friends just have all the same obsessions as you.  I have friends that I can talk to about dogs, Doctor Who, music, and YouTube with for hours on end and never get bored.  Twinzies!

6. The “Best Friends Forever” person you completely lost touch with

The childhood best friend that you got along with so well until…you’re really not sure.  They used to know all of your secrets and share clothes and now you can’t even picture their face.  What happened to them?  Do they even remember you?

7. The In-Class Only Friend

You and another person in lecture hall both need outlets for your sarcastic commentary during class, and that’s basically the extent of your friendship.  Oh, and sometimes you Facebook message them about the homework.
