June 8 is National Best Friends Day, which means if you were looking for an excuse to leave work early and hit up happy hour with the person who is, without a doubt, your better half, this is it. But before five o'clock hits (or four o'clock, if you really want to get this party started early), here are a few best friend quotes to share on Facebook that will show the world that what you and your pal have going on is truly the best thing in the world, hands down. I mean, you already plan on tagging your BFF in a silly photo with the hashtag #bestfriendsday, since that's how the internet works. Why not throw a well-meaning quote into the mix, too?
If there is one thing you and your best friend know how to do, it's have a good time. You don't need a National Best Friends Day to celebrate your incredible bond, but now that it's here, why not mark the occasion? You and your BFF have the magical ability to make each and every day seem like an adventure, and you honestly don't know where you would be right now if it wasn't for the person you've come to love like family. On National Best Friends Day, let her know just how much you appreciate everything about her. These quotes will help.
