About This Quiz

Many people in this world have at least one best friend, but what exactly makes someone "BFF material"? For starters, a relationship between two best friends is about sharing similar core values, which include honesty, loyalty and positivity. If you're the type of person who is always there for your best friend, then you're likely to rank high on our "BFF material" chart. Best friends consistently encourage each other as well, and they usually have similar interests and hobbies.

No matter how long you've known your best friend, you two have likely been in some fights or arguments. This is completely normal, as conflicts are a great way to help each other learn and grow. Friendships are also about making time for each other, especially when two people have very busy schedules.

So how can you make more best friends in this world? Well, close friendships are about establishing trust and loyalty, and this may take several years for some people. But there's no exact timeline for this, as other people become BFFs after a few days or weeks.
