Of course, the best friend accepts the apology and forgives. There are so many reasons why best friends are better than boyfriends. Below, I am going to give 10 reasons best friends are better than boyfriends …

For starters, you can speak to your best friend for hours. It seems as if you can live on the phone with her.

With a boyfriend, you have to worry about offending him. However, with a best friend, she (or he) will know that you are kidding. Now, I admit, sometimes, you could take it past that limit, so you should always watch what you say.

You Can Go Shopping Together

With a boyfriend, you can’t really shop together – not for clothes and shoes anyways. When you find an outfit, your best friend will tell you if it looks good or not. The boy probably doesn’t care what you wear.

With a best friend, when you are in a fashion emergency, you can turn to her to get some fashion advice. With a boyfriend, you can’t really get much fashion advice. Well, not honest advice.
