17 Reasons Why Your Mom Is Your Best Friend For Life

SHARE

If there is one person who has been unconditionally invested in you and your happiness since the first day you were born – it’s your mother.

She played with you when you were a kid, she picked you up from school, she cooked you delicious meals, helped you to write your homework, and made sure to know every little detail that happened to you during the day.

All she ever wants is to take care of you and provide for you. She never forgets to buy you your favorite chocolate when she goes to the store, does she?

Plus, even though she can sometimes be nagging when she keeps reminding you to stop biting your nails, she is the first one to burst into laughter when you tell a joke. Her unconditional love for you is irreplaceable.

Here are 17 reasons which prove your mom is your best friend for life.

1. SHE WATCHED EVERY DISNEY MOVIE WITH YOU JUST TO SEE YOU HAPPY.

She has endured everything – from your meltdown when you saw Bambi’s mother die to the lovey-dovey movies like Cinderella. Moreover, her favorite movie of all times is Beauty and the Beast because you two have watched it sooo many times.

2. SHE ALWAYS DEFENDS YOU

When you were a kid, this meant defending you and fighting with your elementary teacher when they didn’t understand your “creative expression” during class. And now, this means bad-mouthing your boss with you after you’ve had an awful day at work. But, hey! This is what moms are for!

3. SHE CARES ABOUT YOUR APPEARANCE MORE THAN YOU DO

She was the first one to tell you not to get that awful piercing or the terrible haircut. But, of course, you didn’t listen to her, so you’ve learned your lesson the hard way that your mom was right – and she indeed knows best. Okay, the hideous Christmas sweaters that she made you wear don’t count.

4. SHE IS THE ONLY PERSON WHO KNOWS YOUR FASHION TASTE

She was the first fashion icon in your eyes. Her closet was the first one you have raided by trying her dresses and heels. Her style influenced yours. This means that your mom always knows what to buy for you even if it’s some plastic Tupperware or extra sponges.

5. SHE HAS SEEN IT ALL

From the times when she changed your diapers and took care of you when you were grossly sick to your embarrassing moments in school when she had to bring you clean underwear. She has literally seen it all.

6. SHE WILL ALWAYS BE THE MOST FUN PERSON TO GET DRUNK WITH

Seeing your mom get drunk is the most hilarious thing you’ll experience. You’ll enjoy hearing her drunk stories, and her, revealing to you all the family secrets. Moreover, you two finally share a hobby that doesn’t include watching “Modern Family.”

7. SHE WILL CELEBRATE YOUR BIRTHDAY MORE THAN HER OWN

Because the day you were born is the best day of her life. So, she will never forget it and also, she will celebrate it and be more excited about your birthday than she is about her own.

8. SHE MAKES YOU FEEL SPECIAL

She has been telling you that you are a princess since kindergarten. She talks on the phone with you for hours just to listen to you complaining about your every-day trivialities. She also stocks up your favorite food when you come home for the weekend.

9. SHE WON’T JUDGE YOU FOR STAYING IN YOUR PAJAMAS ALL DAY

However, she will make sure that you change them with clean ones before you get back to bed.

10. SHE ALWAYS SPLITS HER MEAL WITH YOU

Even if this means she gets to eat less because suddenly she is ‘full.’ This is because she wants only the best for you.

11. SHE ALWAYS GIVES YOU THE BENEFIT OF THE DOUBT

She ‘believes’ you when you say that that crazy Bloomingdale’s charge came from the early birthday present she got you. Your mom is sooo thoughtful, isn’t she?

12. SHE LISTENS TO YOUR PETTY PROBLEMS AND THEN SHE GIVES IT TO YOU STRAIGHT

She is incredibly patient with everything you do. This includes your obsessive-compulsive behavior over trivialities. When you are being a drama queen, your mom is there to give you free therapy session. Tough love is not excluded. Sorry.

13. SHE IS THE ONLY ONE WHO ACTUALLY CARES IF YOU WORE A SWEATER

Or had enough for dinner, or brought an umbrella, or got sick. She worries about all the little things that may happen in your life that could impact your health and wellbeing.

14. SHE HAS STORIES THAT BEAT YOUR STORIES

You think you are a badass because you ran a marathon? Or because you went to Rihanna’s concert? Nah-ah. Your mom is way more badass than you. Just ask her and hear your badass stories. You’ll be pleasantly surprised.

15. SHE WAS WITH YOU EVERYTIME YOU DID SOMETHING STUPID

Because she is the first person to call when you have an emergency.

16. SHE GENUINELY CARES ABOUT WHAT YOU ARE DOING WITH YOUR LIFE

Even when she is being a pain in the ass, you just know she means well. Plus, she always makes sure to stick to your plans because she has always dreamed big for you.

17. YOU HAVE INHERITED HALF OF HER GENES

While she is proud to have directly impacted your shining personality and awesomeness, you are utterly terrified of becoming like her. Just kidding, mom. You know we love you. ????
