Being with childhood friends feels like home.
They know you better than most people in your life. They know what makes you you.
It’s a relationship you don’t have to work at because when you get together you’re able to just sink into comfortability and pajama pants.
You laugh.
You cry.
You live in the “remember when” knowing the moment you’re in will later become one of your “remember when”.
They love that you’re too much and, let’s be honest, kind of obnoxious while the world sees that trait as negative.
You can say the weird thing because they are probably thinking the same thing.
There’s a you that only they can see and while your husband, mom, etc. may know you as well as they can, no one will ever know you like those childhood friends you keep into adulthood.
