In short, your girlfriends are the cornerstone of your emotional and even physical well-being.

7 Reasons Girlfriends are the Most Important People in Your Life

1. Feel a sense of connection. The connection you’ll have with your female friends is totally different than the one you have with your man. Women are wired differently.  They’re naturally more empathetic, sensitive, and more intuitive. Women share a sisterhood that no one can break.
2. They’re willing to listen. Yes, they will actually listen to you. Can vent to them you can vent to your girlfriends and they’ll listen and commiserate with you without trying to “fix it” for you as your guy would do. They’ll be able to relate to your problems and show concern. And often that’s all we need, an ear to listen and let us get things off our chest. Your girl will be there for you.
3. They can relate to your problems. They can relate to your problems, embarrassments, and struggles.

4. You can borrow clothes. You can always borrow each other’s clothes.  What an awesome way to expand your wardrobe without breaking the bank.
5. You can be yourself. This is the best part of having loyal gal pals. You don’t have to pretend you’re not someone you’re not. They love you for who you REALLY are. They know you better than anyone because they’ve seen it all: the good, the bad, and the ugly.
6. Your true friends are loyal. These girls know all your dirty little secrets and they have your back no matter back. Your true friends will stick up for you and not let anyone talk behind your back. They’ll keep you in check when you’re out of line or wrong because they only want the very best for you.
7. Always ready for fun. Your girls are always ready and willing to go out on the town. Who needs a man when you have your good girlfriends for a girls’ night out.
