15 Things You Get If Your Mom Is Your Best Friend (As Told By The Gilmore Girls)

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

Those of us who consider our mom to be our best friend are a special sort.  

It doesn’t matter how old you are—cuddles are necessary.  

You tend to know way too much about one another.  

You obviously share hobbies.  

“I love you” can’t be said enough.  

Words aren’t neccessary for communicating.  

Every relationship is up for analysis.  

Other people may not understand your bond.  

But you stand by it.  

You know she always has the best advice.  

And eternal encouragement.  

You’ve mastered keeping in touch.  

She’s your favorite part of school breaks.  

You know the truth behind bickering.  

You wouldn’t trade her for anything.  

And you’re proud to call her your best friend.
