7 Reasons A Capricorn Is The BEST Friend You Never Knew You NEEDED

You can't get a better friend than a Capricorn.

One of the most valuable things on earth to have is a best friend. They are the people who stick with you through thick and thin, good times and bad times and all the times in between. Everyone needs a best friend in their life, and there is no better friend to have than a Capricorn. 

They are intelligent, funny, and loyal.

This zodiac sign doesn't have a large group of friends, so count yourself lucky if you manage to befriend yourself one. Your life will be better for having someone like her in it. Friends who stick by her become family and there is nothing she wouldn't do for family. 

She also knows that you won't always want to talk about what's got you down, sometimes you just need a little fun. Capricorns are big believers in actions speak louder than words. If you're sad, she'll plan a whole day full of fun activities to take your mind off of that bad breakup. 

If you're in the market for a new friend, then here are 7 reasons why you should snag yourself a Capricorn!

1. She can introduce you to the most rad bands out there.

When it comes to music she doesn’t discriminate. From Alternative Rock to Big Band Swing and everything in between, this girl can appreciate whatever genre you throw at her.

Which is perfect because nothing brings people together like some good tunes. Whether you’re going on a road trip or heading to a friend’s house for a birthday bash, her DJ skills will NEVER disappoint.

And because she loves music so much, she’ll be up for whatever big music festival you want to go to. By the end of the year you’ll both be able to check Coachella, SXSW, Bonnaroo, and Burning Man off you’re music festival bucket list.

2. She’ll make you feel like a part of the family

Capricorns are all about the bond of family. But you don’t have to be blood to be considered family. Spend enough time around her, and her family will become yours too.

She takes the whole, “mi casa es su casa,” thing very seriously. Believe her when she tells you this because she really means it.

Whenever her family goes on vacation, you’ll be invited too. And whenever you need her, she’ll be there for you. Because that’s just what family does for each other.

 3. She’s incredibly practical.

She’s the one person you can count on to always tell you what you don’t want to hear. She’s also the person you want to bring with you when you go shopping for new items for your grown-up apartment.

You won’t be able to convince her that you need that cow shaped milk dispenser more than that set of plates.

Capricorns can be annoyingly practical at times, but you’ll always thank them later. She is only looking out for you, and that’s the best kind of friend to have.

4. She’s that voice in the back of your head telling you when to stop.

She likes going out as much the next gal, but she also knows when it’s time to call it quits and go home. Capricorns are masters of self-control.

If you’re lacking in this area, then there’s definitely something you can learn from her.

You’ll never have to worry about getting a little too drunk at a party or cheating on your diet with her around. But if you do (it happens believe me I KNOW), you can count on her to always be in control and get you where you need to be.

 5. She’s great at managing, well, everything.

If you have a long list of things you need to accomplish in one day, she’ll make sure that you get them all done. Capricorns are wonderful at managing time, people and situations. They excel at taking charge when need be.

You can always call her and she’ll come to help you out in stressful and overwhelming situations. She knows exactly how to handle them so you don’t always have to.

6. She’s way more responsible than your average adult.

You will never meet a more trustworthy or responsible person in your life. She will sometimes be more mom-ager than friend, but that’s only because she wants what’s best for you (like all best friends should).

She’ll remind you when it’s time to pay your half of the rent and why you shouldn’t wear heels to a bar crawl. And if you go on vacation, you can rest assured that your plants and puppy will be well taken care of.

 7. She always stands her ground.

Beware of getting into a disagreement with a Capricorn. They are incredibly stubborn and have a know-it-all attitude. But on the flip side, you can be sure that most of the time they are right about things (even when you don’t want them to be).

She’s not trying to be difficult, she just trusts her gut and knows when she’s right about something. This goes for friendly advice too. Your happiness is all that matters to her. So trust her when she says that she saw something shady go down with your new boyfriend.
