There is nothing quite like having a best friend. That someone who will be there for you and if you fall, will push you back down again.
Seriously though, there are things you do with that one person that you wouldn't do with anyone else. They know all your secrets and have your back at all times.
You might or might not know it, but here are the tell-tale signs that you've found your BFF.
1. You can read their mind with looks alone
This is the definitive one, with just the raising of an eyebrow or a look in a certain direction you can have a 10 minute conversation in three seconds.
2. You speak to each other in completely weird voices

You seem to have your own language that once you see each other you slowly seep into. This can mean phrases, accents or a new dialect of English completely.
3. You finish each other's sentences
This may seem an obvious one, once you progress to this stage of mind-reading, it's official.
4. You love (and hate) the same people
There is no greater feeling in the world than admitting to someone you loathe, and someone else admitting the same. #goals

5. You have synchronised dance's to multiple songs
When you two hit the dance floor – people lose their shit. The minute 'Crazy in Love' starts you physically push people out of the way and lock eyes.
6. You have 10,000 screenshots of them on your phone
Not only are they you best friend on Snapchat, but you have unlimited rotten screenshots of them that you save meticulously and post on their wall for their birthday. Being evil never felt so good.
7. You can be disgusting around them

They enjoy seeing you make an arse of yourself and laugh at your misfortune.

14. You share and borrow EVERYTHING
Whether it's clothes, make up or even your toothbrush – what's yours is theirs.
15. You can tell when there's something on their mind
If they're not feeling okay you're the first one to notice. This is partially down to your telepathy and because you can communicate to each other with looks alone.

Go to the toilet alone? You haven't gone to the toilet by yourself since 2002.
