Do you actually love your best mate?

[Rainbowlampshade]

I do with mine. I’ve known her since I was nine years old (cracking on 40 now)

She is the only person that knows me. Both picked each other up from shite situations both tell each other off. It’s really hard to explain with it looking like we are in love with each other

Is any body else this close to some some one?

Yes. I did love my best mate. I'll always feel a deep love for her.

I have best friends that I've known since playgroup. They are like sisters to me and I consider them as family. I would do anything for them. I really do love them as much as I love my sister - we've grown up together and have been through the very best and worst times.

Yes definitely. Friends since we were teens. We live in different countries now but are in contact every day. Despite being married to a fabulous man for 18 years now I feel she is the only one who truly knows me and accepts me 100% for who I am.

God yes. Aside from my DD, DH and dad she's the person I love most in the world. More than my sibling to be honest. We've been best friends since birth as our mums were friends. I have two other close friends that I also love dearly but my best friend is like a sister and I would do anything for her or her son.

We've only ever fallen out once (over absolute nonsense!) and I won't hear a word said against her. As far as I'm concerned she's basically perfect. I feel so lucky to have her in my life.

I did and still do, my best mate died not long ago. We met when we were at college and she knew me more than anyone. I miss her so much every day. Without her having my back I feel a bit lost tbh 😔

Definitely, I love all my close friends to bits, even if we don’t tell each other we all know.
