From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
“Best Friends Forever” is a phrase that describes a close friendship. It is often written as an initialism, «BFF«.
Definition[edit]
A BFF is a term for someone’s best friend or close friend and is characterized by trust and permanence, irrespective of the number of times the meaning of friendship has been changed in their lives.[1] BFFs are usually in close contact and have shared experiences, such as attending the same school or sharing musical tastes. Relationships described as BFF are common in high school & middle school and often decline when the parties go to college.[2] The term BFF does not necessarily convey exclusivity; depending on a person’s individual interpretation or philosophy of the concept of «BFF», an individual may not have more than one BFF simultaneously.[3]
Origin[edit]
In the Friends episode «The One at the Beach«, Phoebe uses the term BFF and has to explain to the rest of the gang that it means «best friends forever». Although the concept of having or being a «best friend» is ageless, the acronym BFF was popularized as a quick way for friends to sign off and express their positive feelings for one another while instant-messaging (IM-ing) on the computer or sending a text message on cell phones.[3]
The acronym «BFF» was added to the New Oxford American Dictionary on 16 September 2010.[4] The Oxford English Dictionary documents a use of BFF in 1978.[5]
Cultural perception[edit]
According to a survey in France, the BFF friendship is a concept that occupies a certain place on social networks.[6] This value is reassuring, especially for the millennial generation that experiences a divorce frequently. It is a sign of social success and a balanced life.
A large survey of friendship in the UK in 2003 found that on average, people had nine close friends.[1] In elementary and middle school, best friendships often last less than one full academic year.[7]
Barbara Delinsky described a BFF as «someone you don’t have to see every day to still connect with, someone who loves you whether you talk often or not, someone who would drop everything and catch the next flight if you needed her. It’s someone who couldn’t care less where or what she eats, as long as she’s with you.»[8]
Academic studies[edit]
In 2010, the BFF concept was a part of a BFF contract «to encourage the signatories to work through their differences before splitting up.»[9]
In a study conducted at the University of Oxford, Tamas David-Barrett and his colleagues reported that there is an unusually large number of profile pictures on Facebook that depict two women.[10] This pattern is present in each region of the world. After eliminating the alternative hypotheses, the study concluded that the finding suggests that (a) close friendship formation patterns are universal among humans, and (b) there is a marked gender difference in the propensity to form lasting friendship due to an evolutionary ultimate cause.[10] This suggests that the BFF concept, albeit with a different name, may exist in many cultures, going back to evolutionary times. Recent studies have also shown that close friends are treated as siblings[11] throughout the lifespan.[12]
Commercial use[edit]
Coca-Cola has used the expression on some of their products. For example, some of their cans and bottles say, «Share a Diet Coke with your BFF».[13]

«Лучшие друзья навсегда«- фраза, описывающая близкое Дружба.
Определение
BFF — это термин для чьего-то лучшего друга или близкого друга.[1] и характеризуются доверием и постоянством, независимо от того, сколько раз смысл дружбы менялся в вашей жизни.[2] Лучшие друзья обычно находятся в тесном контакте и имеют общий опыт, например, посещают одну школу или разделяют музыкальные вкусы. Отношения, описываемые как BFF, обычны в средней и средней школе и часто ухудшаются, когда стороны идут в колледж.[3] Термин BFF не обязательно означает исключительность; в зависимости от индивидуальной интерпретации человеком или философии концепции «BFF», человек не может иметь более одного BFF одновременно.[4]
Происхождение
Хотя концепция «иметь лучшего друга» или быть «лучшим другом» не имеет возраста, аббревиатура BFF была популяризирована как быстрый способ для друзей подписаться и выразить свои положительные чувства друг к другу во время обмена мгновенными сообщениями (IM-ing) на компьютере или отправка текстового сообщения на мобильные телефоны.[4]
Акроним «BFF» был добавлен к Новый оксфордский американский словарь 16 сентября 2010 г.[5] В Оксфордский словарь английского языка документирует использование BFF в 1987 году.[6]
Культурное восприятие
Согласно опросу в Франция, дружба BFF — это концепция, занимающая определенное место в социальные сети.[7] Эта ценность обнадеживает, особенно для поколения миллениалов, которое часто разводится. Это признак социального успеха и уравновешенной жизни.
Крупный опрос дружбы в Великобритании в 2003 году показал, что в среднем у людей было девять близких друзей.[2] В начальной и средней школе лучшие дружеские отношения часто длятся менее одного полного учебного года.[8]
Барбара Делински описал лучшую подругу как «кого-то, с кем вам не нужно видеться каждый день, чтобы оставаться на связи, кого-то, кто любит вас, говорите вы часто или нет, кто-то, кто бросит все и сядет на следующий рейс, если она вам понадобится. мне все равно, где и что она ест, пока она с тобой «.[9]

«Лучшие друзья навсегда «- это эпизод Comedy Central с Южный парк, который впервые вышел в эфир 30 марта 2005 г. Дело Терри Скьяво.
Академические исследования
В 2010 году концепция BFF была частью контракта BFF, «чтобы побудить подписавшие стороны проработать свои разногласия перед разделением».[12]
В исследовании, проведенном в Оксфордском университете, Тамас Дэвид-Барретт и его коллеги сообщили, что в Facebook существует необычно большое количество фотографий профиля, на которых изображены две женщины.[13] Этот образец присутствует в каждом регионе мира. После исключения альтернативных гипотез исследование пришло к выводу, что полученные данные свидетельствуют о том, что (а) паттерны формирования близкой дружбы универсальны среди людей и (б) существует заметная гендерная разница в склонности к установлению прочной дружбы из-за эволюционной конечной причины.[13] Это говорит о том, что концепция BFF, хотя и под другим названием, может существовать во многих культурах, восходящих к временам эволюции. Недавние исследования также показали, что к близким друзьям относятся как к братьям и сестрам.[14] на протяжении всей жизни.[15]
Коммерческое использование
Такие компании как Кока-Кола использовали это выражение на некоторых своих продуктах Cola. На их банках написано: «Поделись диетической колой со своим лучшим другом».[16]

Everyone is someone’s friend, even when they think they are all alone.
If the friendship is not working, your heart will know. It’s when you start being less than perfectly honest and perfectly earnest in your dealings. And it’s when the things you do together no longer feel right.

#43 “The glory of friendship is not the outstretched hand, nor the kindly smile, nor the joy of companionship; it’s the spiritual inspiration that comes to one when you discover that someone else believes in you and is willing to trust you with a friendship.” (Best Friends Forever Quotes)
#44 “Anyone can sympathize with the sufferings of a friend, but it requires a very fine nature to sympathize with a friend’s success.”

Meaningful Best Friends Forever Quotes

#53 “A best friend won’t agree with you to make you happy. If anything, they will say what needs to be said, no matter if you want to hear it or not.”
#54 “Friendship is secretly giving people nicknames so only we know who we’re talking about. No need for explanations. Always knowing what the other is thinking. Comfortable silence. Long phone calls about nothing. Annoying each other and thoroughly enjoying being each other’s therapists. Sharing every little detail about every little thing. The ability to talk total and have that nonsense respected. Not being able to wait to tell each other stuff. Laughing, laughing, and laughing. Forgiving each other no matter what. Conversations that are impossible for others to understand. A reassuring presence. A whole conversation with just one look. Never get bored with each other’s blabber. Total certainty, total truth.”
#55 “Soulmates come in the form of friends too, it’s not just about romance. Sometimes, it’s your best friend who makes you feel whole and who understands you the most when the world doesn’t understand you at all.”

That’s a label that needs to be earned. A best friend knows me more than I know myself. A best friend shares tears and laughs. You can trust them with anything and everything. I have a bunch of friends, but only a select few who I can call my best friends.”
#58 “My best friends are like fairytales. They have been there since once upon a time and will be there until forever after.”
#59 “I don’t have a lot of best friends, but I have one. Because I choose quality over quantity.” (besties forever quotes)
