Love Languages
Having that one friend you can count on no matter what is a special thing, that not everyone is fortunate enough to experience. Abby and me have been friends since my freshman year, and have a strong affinity for each other. We met in gymnastics, and instantly clicked. We have been inseparable since. Our friendship isn’t perfect, we have dialectal conflict just like anyone else, but we will always fight to overcome it. The fact that we share three of the same love languages, has helped our friendship grow.

After summer gymnastics ended, we didn’t talk much until the season started. Once season started, our friendship truly blossomed. We hung out a lot, and we had lots of pointless study dates. Ever since then, we have been inseparable.

    Throughout all of my years in school, I have struggled to keep friends or simply find a suitable friend group for myself. This came to my attention in recent years when I met a girl that I knew would change my life.
