The 5 Types of Friends Every Collegiette Needs

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Utah chapter.

Going through college without friends by your side would be impossible and completely boring!  We, collegiettes, need our friends by our side for many different reasons, whether it be someone to watch movies with or to hit the town with.  Below are the 5 types of friends every collegiette needs.

1. The Partier

Everyone needs to relieve stress!  What better way to do so than dancing it out with all your friends and having a great time?  The partier allows you to let loose and not worry about anything. 

2. The Bookworm

This type of friend reminds you that you are here for school.  The bookworm reminds you to buckle down when it is time to focus on school.

3. The Mom

The mom is there in a way to discipline you and remind you not to do stupid things.  The mom is also there for you, when you have had those rough nights and need someone to comfort and take care of you.

4. The Instigator

The instigator is the one always willing to put up a fight and stand up for you no matter what.  This friend is not going to let anyone mess with you and will say things you won’t.

5. The Peacekeeper

The peacekeeper is the main mediator of your friend group. When there is a fight, the peacekeeper is always there to hear both sides and calm the drama in a rational, way.
