VIDEO: Funniest Text Messages Between Best Friends

Everyone has a best friend that’s like another part of you and that you are so close to you that you sometimes feel like they are more your family than your own siblings.

You do everything together and share everything and when you talk with each other it’s like you speak a different language.

You have so many inside jokes that if someone read your messages they won’t even understand what you are talking about.

According to wikipedia.org, a friendship is a relationship of mutual affection between people. Best friends share extremely strong interpersonal ties with each other, but there are many other types of friends.

Blood brother or sister – This term can either refer to people related by birth or to friends who swear loyalty by mixing their blood together.

The latter usage has been practiced throughout history, but is rarely continued today due to the dangers of blood-borne diseases.

Bromance – A portmanteau of bro and romance, a bromance is a close, non-sexual relationship between two or more men.

Womance – A portmanteau of woman and romance, a womance is a close, non-sexual relationship between two or more women.

Buddy – Sometimes used as a synonym for friend generally, “buddy” can specifically denote a friend or partner with whom one engages in a particular activity, such as a “study buddy.”

Casual relationship or “friends with benefits” – Also referred to as a “hook-up,” this term denotes a sexual or near-sexual relationship between two people who do not expect or demand to share a formal romantic relationship.

Communal friendship – As defined by Steven McCornack, this is a friendship in which friends gather often to provide encouragement and emotional support in times of great need.

This type of friendship tends to last only when the involved parties fulfill the expectations of support.

Comrade – This term denotes an ally, friend, or colleague, especially in a military or political context.

Comradeship may arise in time of war, or when people have a mutual enemy or even a common goal, in circumstances where ordinary friendships might not have formed.

In English, the term is associated with the Soviet Union, in which the Russian equivalent term, tovarishch (Russian: това́рищ), was used as a common form of address.

Frenemy – A portmanteau of the words “friend” and “enemy,” the term “frenemy” refers to either an enemy disguised as a friend (a proverbial wolf in sheep’s clothing) or a person who is both a friend and a rival.

This may take the form of a love–hate relationship. The term was reportedly coined by a sister of author and journalist Jessica Mitford in 1977 and popularized more than twenty years later on the third season of Sex and the City.

One study by psychologist Julianne Holt-Lunstad found that unpredictable love–hate relationships can lead to elevations in blood pressure.

In a previous study, the same researcher found that blood pressure is higher around people for whom one has mixed feelings than it is around people whom one clearly dislikes.

Internet relationship – An internet friendship is a form of friendship or romance which takes place exclusively over the internet. This may evolve into a real-life friendship.

Internet friendships are in similar context to pen pals. People in these friendships may not use their true identities; parties in an internet relationship may engage in catfishing.
