Seven categories of friends you must have in your life

Friends are very important in life. Humans are social creatures, and sometimes your family is not enough to meet your friendship needs. It is very important to have close friends throughout life, especially at different stages of life.

It is true that you have to be a great friend to have great friends.

With that in mind, here are 7 friends you should have in your life:

1. The cheerleader

The cheerleader friend is the one who will support you and your dreams, whatever happens. They are in your corner and ready to cheer you on. Your cheerleader is the most likely to give you a pep talk when you’re feeling really down and need someone to remind you how awesome you really are.

2. The nonconformist

The Hipster Friend is one who is younger than you and knows the latest trends, what’s hot and what’s out this year. This friend doesn’t make you feel old, but it tells you what you need to know to keep up and be cool in today’s society. This is also the type of friend that you can tell stories about when you were in style and they will understand what you mean. They keep you informed and make you feel young and modern.

3. The mentor

The Mentor Friend is someone you turn to when you need advice. This friend always seems to know what you need to hear and when you need to hear it. They will tell you the truth about what works in the real world. They will guide you because they have been there and have done it. They care about your best interests and don’t want you to go through the trials and tribulations that they went through. They have some things figured out and are very happy to share their wisdom with you.

4. The comedian

The Comedian Friend is the friend you turn to when you need a good laugh. They will brighten up your day with the craziest stories that will make you hug your sides laughing so hard. They can make you laugh no matter what. Even if your aunt died that day. They will find something fun in every situation. And, since laughter really is the best medicine, after being your comedian friend you feel so much better just being with them.

5. The pusher

The Pusher Friend is there for you when you need a push. There’s a bit of tough love because The Pusher Friend knows we’ll come up with all kinds of excuses, but they see through our excuses. They make us look for things in life. Without the Pusher, we might not have applied for that latest promotion or the new job or bought the plane ticket and had a great time on our last vacation. They push you to be dissatisfied with the status quo.

6. The translator

The translator is the friend of the opposite sex who only has the best platonic intentions for you. They are able to translate the words and actions of the opposite sex for you when you have no idea what it means. Because you are of the opposite sex, the man and woman who speak for you will translate for you. They help you navigate the waters with the opposite sex.

7. The best friend

Everyone needs a best friend in their life. This is the friend who accompanies you no matter what. Your best friend is the first person you call when you have just been fired and the only person you call to get you out of jail because they will be there to help you. Because they know that you are there for them too. They will help you move, they will pick you up at the airport, they will remember your birthday every year and they will always be there for you. Your best friend knows you and you know them. Your best experiences in life are with your best friend.

We must all remember that our friends are very important in our lives, but to I have a friend, you have to to be a friend.
