The person with whom we would have late-night phone calls, gossip about our strict parents, and arrange matching outfits is a specific best friend from the 1990s that we all remember fondly: that person.
When you compare the best friends you had back then to the ones you have now, you will notice that a lot of things have changed, but there are certain things that have remained the same: we continue to talk on the phone late at night and share juicy gossip. Even if we continue to claim that it was a complete and utter coincidence, we might still coordinate our attire. Even though we are older and drink more wine, there is not much that has changed between us.
Best friends are like having siblings that we were never able to have. Even in the event that we did have siblings, it is possible that we did not develop a strong attachment to them. Our best buddy was the one we would call to play a joke on us and cry to when our crush was seen holding hands with another person on the playground. This was in contrast to our siblings, who might have lost our favorite toys or embarrassed us.
In spite of the fact that certain things have changed a little bit, we would not be where we are today if it weren’t for our closest friends, both from the 1990s and from the present day.
- The Fights That Happen Between Us
When you were away on vacation in the 1990s, your best friend made a vow to take care of your digital pet, but she ended up letting it die. The moment it happened, you simply could not look at her in the same manner again.
At this moment, we don’t really compete with one another in that manner anymore. On the other hand, we purposely avoid liking one other’s Instagram posts and instead leave comments on Facebook that are passive-aggressive.
- The manner in which we make up thereafter
In the 1990s, when smartphones were not yet widely available, the only way to settle a dispute with your best friend was to hand her a note in the classroom. In the event that somebody didn’t remember our abbreviations, you would fill it with frown faces, dot the i’s with hearts to demonstrate how unhappy you were without her, and finish it off with “LYLAS,” which stands for “love you like a sister.”
In order to move past the situation, it is customary to make amends by purchasing a $12 beverage from Starbucks and taking a selfie of the two of you being happy together.
- Some Entertainment for the Friday Night
In the 1990s, we would sneak into an R-rated movie by going to the mall and purchasing fake nose rings from Claire’s. This would happen right before we caught them. At the time, we believed that we were so defiant.
What about those who no longer go out? We are not! Let us have a bottle (or twelve) of wine and something to binge watch on Netflix, and we will be good to go. Are you able to say “FriYAY”?
Taking on the role of Wingwoman
In the 1990s, after you had discovered who your true love was with a cootie catcher, you would have a dramatic encounter with your best friend while you were in science class. This would give you the opportunity to keep other girls at away.
With only his middle name in hand, every best friend knows that the best method to discover a long-term partner is to spend fourteen hours searching for him on Facebook.
Fifth, the Squad Targets
When you were in the 1990s, your life revolved on the idea of finding a few more ladies who were just as amazing as you were so that you could act like the Spice ladies.
When it comes to the “Single Ladies” dance, the good news is that you only need one more person to do it. However, given that you are no longer a people person, your best friend is more than sufficient
