1. Thank you for being completely honest with me – even when I don’t want to hear it.

　　谢谢你的绝对诚实—即使在我不想听到实话的时候。

　　It’s not easy to hear the truth when you don’t want to hear it. There’s something different about hearing the truth from your best friend that makes it a little more bearable. Your best friend knows that always being honest with you will make you trust them, and that’s what friendship is about.

　　当你不想听实话的时候，实话是让人难以接受的。但是实话如果出自挚友口中，会有一点不一样，能让你更能接受。你的好友知道，对你一如既往地诚实能够让你信任他们，这就是友谊的意义。

　　2. Thank you for always bringing my mood up.

　　谢谢你总是让我情绪高涨

　　Anytime you’re around your best friend your mood automatically gets better. You know you are with someone who knows you inside and out, and you can be your true self around them. How can that not put you in a better mood instantly?

　　任何时候，只要和你的挚友在一起，你的情绪就会自动高涨。你知道和你在一起的这个人完全了解你，你可以在他们面前做真正的自己。这怎么不会让你的情绪瞬间好起来呢？

　　3. Thank you for being just as weird as I am – and enjoying every second of it.

　　谢谢和我一样是个怪人—并且乐在其中。

　　You two wouldn’t be best friends if you weren’t the right amount of weird for each other. Your best friend is someone you can drive around with and sing every song at the top of your lungs, have specific dance moves for these songs, and not give a damn if the cars around you can see. Let’s be honest, the two of you should probably have a reality show.

　　如果你们俩的怪异程度不和，你们也不会成为最好的朋友。你的挚友就是那个你可以与之一起驾车飙歌的那个人，可以一起和歌乱舞、不顾他人眼光的那个人。说实话，就你们俩能说一出相声。

　　4. Thank you for being selfless. You have truly made this world a better place by caring more for others than for yourself. You are an inspiration.

　　谢谢你的无私。你关心别人多过关心自己，真正让这个世界变得更好。你鼓舞了我。

　　Your best friend inspires you to be a better person. Through their daily life they show you how to put others above yourself, and how to enjoy doing so. It takes a special person to be selfless and put others before themselves, if you are lucky enough to have this type of person as a best friend, cherish them.

　　你的挚友鼓励你成为一个更好的人。他们通过日常生活，向你展示了怎样将他人摆在自己之前，并且如何从中得到快乐。能够无私做到这一点的人，不是普通的人。如果你足够幸运拥有一个这样的挚友，一定要珍惜。

　　5. Thank you for knowing when something is wrong with me, and what to do to make it better.

　　谢谢你发现我的错误，并且帮我改善。

　　You can’t fool your best friend. They know when something isn’t right with you, even when you try to lie through your teeth. Instead of getting frustrated with you, they help you. If you are going through a breakup, they bring you your favorite type of ice cream and help you eat the whole thing. Basically, no matter what’s going on with you they know the remedy to fix it.

　　你什么也瞒不过你的挚友。他们知道你什么时候不对劲，甚至知道你何时会说出谎言。他们不但不会对你失望，还会帮助你。如果你在经历分手，他们会带你去吃你最爱的冰激凌，和你一起干掉它。基本上不管你身上发生了什么，他们都能找到补救的方法。

　　6. Thank you for thinking about me.

　　谢谢你想着我。

　　A simple text asking how you’re doing, or how your day was can instantly change your day around. Your best friend checks in with you just to say hi, because they are thinking about you. It’s a great feeling to know someone cares about you that much. You both take time out of your day just to check in.

　　一条简简单单的短信，问你在做什么，或者是问你最近过得怎么样，能瞬间改变你一天的心情。你的挚友来拜访你，只为问候一声，因为他们想着你。知道有个人这么关心你感觉很好。你们俩都抽出时间来互相拜访。

　　7. Thank you for not judging me.

　　谢谢你没有批判我。

　　This is one of the most important aspects of our best friends that we forget to thank them for. We don’t always make the best decisions, but they don’t judge us for it. We can tell them anything and they listen without thinking poorly about us. They understand who we are enough to not need to judge us for anything. They love us unconditionally.

　　这是我们忘记感谢他们之中最重要的一条。我们并不是一直做出最佳决定，但是他们并没有为此批判我们。我们能把一切告诉他们，他们静静地听着，不会降低我们在他们心中的地位。他们懂得我们本身已经足够，而不需要再去批判我们。他们对我们的爱是无条件的。

　　8. Thank you for being a true friend – even when we are apart.

　　谢谢你一直做真朋友—甚至在我们相隔两地的时候。

　　Distance can hurt a lot of relationships, but movement is a part of life. Your best friend is someone who has your back even when you aren’t there. They stay true to your friendship through all the miles. You two keep up with what’s going on in each other’s lives because you really care, not because you have to.

　　距离会对许多关系造成伤害，但是生活就是充满变化。你的挚友就是不在你身边时仍然支持你的那个人。他们对你们之间友谊的保持真挚，即使相隔千山万水。你们俩没有错过对方生命中的任何事，因为你们真的关心对方，而不是履行义务。

　　9. Thank you for being there through the good times and the bad.

　　谢谢你一直都在，不论顺境逆境。

　　No matter what you are going through you can count on your best friend to be right by your side. Whether you two are celebrating a new turning point in your life, or crying with you through a loss – you know you can always count on them.

　　不论你正在经历什么，你可以依靠你的挚友，他就在你的身边。不论你们是在为你生活中的新转折点而庆祝，还是为你的损失而抱头痛哭，你知道你可以一直指望他们。

　　10. Thank you for all the happy memories we share.

　　谢谢你陪伴我的快乐记忆。

　　Let’s face it, life just wouldn’t be as much fun without your best friend. You share more memories with them then you can probably even recall. They keep things interesting and fun. Without them you wouldn’t have so many amazing experiences to look back on.

　　必须承认，没有挚友的话，生活不会那么有趣。你和他们一起的回忆可能比你能记得的还要多。他们让一切变得有趣而好玩。没有他们，你不会有那么多有趣的经历来回味。
