"How do you get along so well?"
OUR RULES:
Awhile back we established the rule that we would never hold anything in that’s bothering us. “Ok hard truth..” and then spill. It’s become a great technique for those times where you just don’t know how to bring up whatever is on your mind. It took trial and error, as most all things do in life, but after the first year we can honestly say we are in a place where we hold nothing back and rarely do we ever genuinely “fight.” We say what’s on our minds, quickly hash it out, and move on.
At the end of the day, we’re still sisters. More than that even – (best) friends. Nothing in the world matters more than that. So no matter what happened or what was said, just g e t o v e r i t. Life isn’t about holding grudges. It’s about living it to the fullest and you can’t do that if you’re hung up on the hat that was worn without asking or the fact that it was really the other person’s turn this time to buy the paper towels for the kitchen. Life is a whole lot better when you care less about the minuscule matters and focus more on having fun together and creating memories.
So, you’ve had a bad day and never heard back from that cute boy you met this past weekend. Or maybe you’ve had the best day and recently got promoted at work. Whatever the situation may be, champagne, tequila, Brandy Melville sweatshirts, homemade banana bread blondies – it all helps mend the heart. And that surprise act of loveliness is the best way to show the eternal and unconditional support. Bond so strong!
It won’t work. Your relationship will begin to wither. It’s a risky little game we played the first TWO YEARS living together (RIP to our first NYC tiny apartment together). But if we survived that, we know we can survive it all. Separate bathrooms are just so important. So very important. Let this be your warning.
This is an oldie but a goody. A never ending tell all. Self-explanatory. But we will add on to leave you with one more thing – “You know, boyfriends and girlfriends are gonna come and go, but this is for life.” – Pheobe Buffay
