Your best friend

Well my best friend is my sister, she is 2 years older than I am.We have always done everything together and told one another all things. I moved from pennsylvania to Arkansas 36 years ago. My sister moved here several years later.We have been through so much together.I have been disabled for 22 years and have had a lot of surgurys, she has always been by myside, being my nurse,and care giver.We helped raise one anothers children.But she had to move 300 miles away 2 years ago, I miss her very much. We talk on the phone at least once a day, sometimes more. I go to see her as often as I can, but it just is not the same as being with her every day.

i have a few different best friends and have known them for various times..the longest being about 34 yrs...then I have a couple I've known for 20+ yrs and 18 yrs and a couple that I've known for 11 yrs and so on...

I've known her since the day she was born. I'm talking about my mother. I didn't always think of her as my best friend, but she is. She supports, but will point out when I'm wrong. She is wise in her advice, and doesn't mind if I don't take it. I encourge her on days she feels just awful. It's a give and take relationship that I not only value, I cherish.

I've known my best friend since 8th grade. So it's been about 18 years. It's funny, actually. We hated each other and then became best friends. She knew that I had a "habit" of dropping out of touch with friends when I moved away. When I moved from California to New Jersey, she wouldn't let me do that. Even if I went 3 months without writing or calling her, she would keep writing to me until I wrote back.
