 Girl Relationships

                This week in class we discussed the importance of girl relationships. I personally believe these relationships are extremely important. I have always been extremely close to my sisters and my mom, they are definitely my best friends, but they are also much older than me. They don’t fully understand everything that is happening to me in my life. Even though they have gone through most of the same things it’s hard to talk to someone that is going to know the outcome. It may be useful, but who ever really wants to hear the truth about what is going to happen in certain situations?

            All growing up I never was a person that had a lot of friends I always had like one or two close friends in each grade but then I would change friends the next year, I never had constant girlfriends. However I have had one friend that I have had since 1^st grade, she knows everything about my life and I know I can trust her to help me with everything and anything. Throughout middle school and high school she was really the only person I could count on to be there for me. Through those years I never would really go out or hang out with people I mostly stayed at home. I always would look at everyone’s pictures they posted and wished I could be a part of that big group of popular girls that always seemed to have so much fun.

            Finally once I got to college I was able to find that group of girlfriends I had always wanted to have. These girls that I have met in college have completely changed me for the better. They are girls I can talk to about absolutely everything. We can talk for hours about the most ridiculous things. It made me realize how important it is to have these relationships in your life. Having such strong relationships with these girls has made me get past such tough times at school that I would not be able to get through without them to constantly support me. I completely think it is important for every girl to have someone or a group of other girls they can go to with their lives.
