Reel Life Advice: Four Friends Every Girl Should Have

The ladies of Sex and the City 2 got it down pat. Girlfriends rule, and when you surround yourself with these female archetypes, you'll laugh more, stay sane amid the challenges and perhaps even rule the world! Any wise woman who has had to deal with a breakup, a job loss or problems with marriage or motherhood knows the power of having girlfriends. Female best friends are nature's gift to us, soul sisters who are able to tune in to our emotions and offer us advice, a hug or even take us shopping when we sorely need it. After all women are hard-wired to commiserate with other women — it's in our DNA to be there for our friends. Just as variety is the spice of life, having an inner circle of different types of women can provide you with all the moral support you'll ever need.
