20 Long Paragraphs to Send to Your Best Friend

/ 1,604 Comments

Best friends … They’re very often the first people you turn to in a crisis, and they’re always there to pick you up when you are down. Sadly, as much as our best friends are a lifeline, they’re usually the first people we overlook too. There’s no real Valentine’s Day for friends. We have Mother’s Day and Father’s Day, but no special day set aside for the person who knows more about you than anyone else in the world.

When was the last time you wrote and sent your BFF a love letter? You would do it for boyfriends and girlfriends, lovers, partners, etc. Why don’t we send ‘love letters’ to the people we say we love the most — our best pals?

We think it’s about time that your best-friend-for-life learned EXACTLY how special they are to you. How much they do for you, and how much they mean to you. And, above all, how grateful you are that they are YOUR best friend. Not everyone is lucky enough to come across a lasting friendship like that, how about showing some love to your lifeline today?

Long Paragraphs to Send to Your Best Friend

Dear Friend,

You have been there for me through my good times and my bad, picking me up off the floor at times when I’ve needed your hand the most. Today, I would like to say thank you. We say thank you a lot, sometimes even when we don’t mean it, but when I say the words, I really mean it — I don’t know what I would have done without you by my side. Lovers, partners, boyfriends, they may come and go, but best friends really are forever. I’m glad that you’re my best friend.

Thank you!

My Best Friend, 

Can you believe how many years we’ve known each other now? It almost feels like too many years to believe, so many memories made and stored away, tales to be told, and perhaps a few stories that we don’t remember … although that’s probably for the best! �� 

I hope that one day we will be causing havoc and laughing in a care home together, tripping each other over with our zimmer frames and walkers. Wouldn’t it be cool to say that we had fifty, sixty, perhaps even seventy years of friendship under our belts? 

However long you stay in my life as my best friend, I’m thankful for each and every day. You’re the coolest person I’ve ever met. I love you, and I’m thankful to have you. 

BFF xo

Yo, Bestie!

Please don’t go anywhere. I genuinely don’t know what I would do without you on my team, holding my hand through all the good decisions, and even a few of the bad. (Let’s not talk about those … )

You’ve been both a rock and a guiding star to me, although not always guiding me down all of the appropriate paths. Every giggle was worth it, though; the two of us creating memories that re no doubt going to last us a lifetime.

Whatever happens, wherever we find ourselves and whomever we met, let’s just always stay in touch, yeah? It would be weird not to have you around now!

Good morning, best friend, I hope you have a great day.

I know you’ve been having a tough time of things lately, but I just wanted you to know that I think you’re one of the coolest people in the whole world. (You can’t be THE coolest because our coolness is equally matched.)

Chin up, bestie. I’ll be here if you need me, whether it’s to throw tissues at you to mop up the tears, throw my arms around you when you need a really big hug, or just to listen when you need to rant and scream. I’ll always be there, just like you’re always there for me. 

I hope things get better for you, but I’m right here either way. 

Love you!

To my friend,

Bill Withers once said, “Lean on me, when you’re not strong. And I’ll be your friend. I’ll help you carry on.”

I’ve never had a relationship or friendship where I found I could lean on that person wholeheartedly, but that changed when you entered my life. You have allowed me to lean on you and, in return, I will always allow you to lean on me. I will be your friend. I will help you carry on.

We’ll suffer many problems over the years, I’m sure. We’ll have bad breakups. We might even fall out ourselves too. Just remember, though; I know too much about you and you know too much about me, haha! I’m just playing around with you. I would NEVER tell your secrets, and I trust you enough to know that you can say the same.

Thank you for being the person who makes me laugh, wipes away my tears, and secretly helps me to plot revenge on all bad boyfriends. You’re the best!

Sometimes, a person will enter your life who will change it like no other. That person won’t be a relative, although will seem like they are a family member at times, and maybe even better than that. That person won’t be a lover or a partner either. That person will last the distance; better than a lover. They’ll be the person you actually want to run to when the going gets tough, rather than the one you are forced to run to because of a blood tie. They’ll be the person that you can’t wait to call or text when good or exciting things happen, a true test — surviving and sticking together through both the good times and the bad. 

You’re THAT person. The person I WANT to run to and share my celebrations with. My biggest cheerleader, my most loyal confidant, my best friend.

We’re such good friends, you’d think that we had known each other for years. You’d never have guessed that we would have been friends for such a short space of time because it feels like I already know you inside and out, and you know me the same way too. It’s amazing how much of an impact one person can have — how much they can light up the bad days and make the great days even better. That’s the impact you’ve had on my life — you’ve managed to light up the bad days and make all of the great days so much better.

Let’s hope that our friendship carries on for many more years to come, but for however long I know you and can call you my friend, I’m eternally grateful.

It doesn’t matter what happens between us, how many fights we have or how many times we disagree with each other; I will always be there for you. Life has a funny way of working out — of putting us in the line of people that we need to be around or know, for one reason or another. I truly believe that you were put in MY line because we were MEANT to know each other. We were MEANT to be in each other’s lives. 

Thank you for being my friend.

Good morning, bestie!

I hope you have a day that is just as fabulous as you are, and that good luck sprinkles itself all over you. I seem to have been blessed with all the luck in the world, bagging you as my best friend; someone who’s there for me through everything, thick and thin, good and bad. You’re a great person. You deserve some really good luck. Here’s hopin’ it comes to you today!

When we were kids, we scraped our knees together. We grew up a little and got into trouble together. We had our hearts broken together, ate tubs of ice cream with one another, cried into each other’s shoulders until we thought there were no more tears left. We’ve had glasses of wine and celebrations galore, parties that went on until the early hours of the morning, nights where we would stay awake until the early hours of the morning too. 

Friendship. It’s a beautiful thing. Not everyone is blessed to have such a fun and funny person in their life. I’m certainly blessed to have you in mine.

I never really believed in guardian angels, but I’m starting to wonder if they might just come in the form of friends. Or, rather, best friends. When you think about it; guardian angels aren’t that different to a best friend. They both make sure you stay on the right track as best as possible and are there to pick you up and lift your spirits when times are hard. I think you might be my guardian angel and I definitely know that you’re my best friend.

I love you, friend.

What is a friend? 

They are someone who can keep your secrets. 

They are someone who will be there at the other end of the phone when you’re having a bad day. 

They’re the first person you want to call when something good happens to you. 

They’re the one person who will accept you as you are, no matter what. In return, you accept them for everything and anything they are too. 

They’re someone whose opinion you value, and whose opinions you trust. 

A friend is a very special gift, and you’re the best friend a girl could ask for. 

Thank you.

There are so many ways to say thank you, in so many different languages, but even if I were to say, “Thank you” in every single language on the planet, it still wouldn’t be enough to convey just how special you are to me. They say that friends are the family you choose to have for yourself, and if I could choose, it would be you every time.

I’ve had a lot of friends over the years, some of which have left my life just as quickly as they entered it. You have stuck around, through thick and thin, during periods of my life when all others have walked away. That’s a true friend. You ARE a true friend.

If I had all the money in the world, I would choose today to take you out for dinner, maybe treat you to a movie, spoil you a little. We do these things for our significant others, but our friends are the people who often love us the most. It would be lovely if I treated you in the same special ways that you deserve.

I don’t have all the money in the world, but I do have all the love in the world for you, my friend. Thanks for always being there for me.

We’ve been together and we’ve been apart. There have been miles between us, and even hours in some cases, but we’ve always stayed friends. No matter what obstacles have been thrown in our path or how many other people have tried to tear our friendship in two, we’ve stood the test of time. Most people aren’t lucky enough to have such a strong friendship in their lifetimes, but I know how lucky I am to call you my best friend.

When you’re around, I laugh. When you smile, I smile. When you’re sad, I feel sad. When you’re excited, I’m excited too. We might laugh and joke — sister’s from another mister, but one thing that definitely isn’t a joke is the friendship we have forged. Sturdy, durable, reliable and true — I was so lucky to end up with a best friend like you.

Roses are red, violets are blue, you’re not my lover but I still have so much love for you. A poet I am not, although I can still throw together a few words that rhyme, I can’t wait to tell you how glad I am that you’re a friend of mine. Thank you for being there, through the good times and the bad, I can tell you something right now — not having you as my best friend would make me very sad.

To my best friend,

Thanks for never letting me leave the house in an outfit that I look stupid in. Thanks for always being honest when I’ve put on a little weight. Thanks for reminding me of all the back men I’ve dated when I’m about to make yet another hideous dating decision, and for making my life when yet another breakup rears its ugly head.

Thanks for not judging me, even though I seem to make the same mistakes over and over again. Thanks for being funny, smart, and cool.

Most of all, thanks for being my friend. I really don’t know where I’d be without you!

They say the definition of true friendship is walking into someone’s house and your phone automatically connecting to their wifi. For as long as you promise to remind my friend, I promise to always let you use mine.
