Best friends

[Wheatley]

Hey,

So I was wondering why people have friends and best friends. The obvious answer would be that a best friend is closer to you than a normal friend is.

But I thinking, is it easier for you to consider someone your best friend if you have a crush on them? Say, you like them but when compared to other friends, the best friend doesn't come out on top.

I'm not exactly a popular person and can probably count my friends on my fingers, but every best friend (apart from one) that I've had I've had a crush on. And of those few, their personalities have been less than desirable (ignoring you, standing you up, only looking out for themselves etc..).

Has anyone else noticed a pattern like this or am I just a bad person?

Thanks

I guess it happens a bit but kinda not at the same time. To be honest, I don't even like the term "Best Friends" because it's kinda of like a standard you must live up to and it's very categorising. But yeah, I agree to some extent, not fully.
