The Neighbour Test is a test/rule to find out who has the duty of care towards your physical injury or property damage. It is a topic to be covered on the negligence field in the legal world. But for today, since my joined blog with Diana mainly focused on friendship, it inspired me to write about Best Friend Test. (Which is similar to the neighbour in Neighbour Test, your Best Friend should have the duty of care over your pain and scars)
We often speak of someone as our Best Friend but I realized that not everyone has a clear perspective and idea of the definiton, Best Friend/Bestie. A very clear example from my life is that a playmate of mine ( They are like friends, but not in need, instead exist for fun and play time) told me that she and some other girls are best friend, always hanging out. On the other hand, the girls told a different story saying that they just went out a few times, not even close friend.
So how should we know exactly who is our Best Friend? For today, I shall write from my experiences (Duh). The most basic 5 signs she must pass.
Best Friend Test: (Applicable for Girls only, sorry guys...)
1. She buy you food.
A friend is never a friend if she never once buy you food. Best Friends always offer their food to you.
2. She always nail it when buying presents for you.
Your Best Friend should know either what you need or what you like. She will buy you the gifts you or you will like the gift because of her. (Best Friend Power!)
3. She has strong influence over you, vice versa.
I like hello kitty and she is starting to dig it too. I like pink and she think pink is pretty. She like owl and I am starting to dig owl. She like purple, I think is pretty. She call someone a B*tch, I will think so too (vice versa).
4. She can change in front of you.
You in your birthday suit should be a very intimate and private experience ( It should......emmhmm). But it seems like your best friend is such a huge part of your life, she have invaded your space so you kinda just flash it even if she is there. (vice versa)
5. Her Friends and Family know your existance as her bestie.
Friendship sometimes stretch across the globe, you guys not necessarily live in the same city or study/work within the same institution. So she must have peeps out of your circle, but that do not stop those peeps from knowing you. If she is truly your best friend, she must have mentioned quite often to others (either silly stories/ awesome things/ random stuffs of you.) This is actually the most important principle, if she does not tell others or recognize you in front of others as her bestie, most probably you guys are not true friends.

To add on:
6. You ask each other for advice and opinions
Your bestie's advice and opinions are one of the most important things in your life! If it is not, or if you think that your bestie does not give good advice, then.. hmm... that's not a good sign! To think about it, I pretty much always ask Evon for her advice and opinions. I have asked her about important things: FASHION :P and about other things, such as dating and feelings, and food, etc etc.
