This person is the life of the party and a joker. We all have met one of these people at least once or twice in our lives. If you haven't, you can track them down at social functions like birthday parties, weddings or reunions.
This person cracks jokes at the drop of a hat, very witty and never fail to cheer you up by tickling your funnybone even when you are feeling down. Wherever you go with this friend, on a night out, for an overseas trip, or just hanging around watching TV, you will have an enjoyable time.
This friend is where you can let down your hair, act silly and have fun but you should not go crying to him or her with your problems as it is their nature to make light of everything. However, go with this friend if you want to put aside your worries or forget the problems in your life for a few hours or over the weekend. They are your "de-stressers," so to speak.

Intuitive Friend
This friend have an uncanny ability to know what you are thinking or about to say the words before you say it. You have a spiritual connection with this friend. They know your deepest secrets, or longings which you yourself may not be aware of. Your other friends may think that this friend is psychic since she sometimes finishes your sentences.
You may know this friend since childhood or the moment both of you met, something click and you are chatting like you have known each other for ages.
This friend is a true friend and is the person you feel most comfortable with and you can let your guard down. You can relax, be yourself and you know that they will never judge what you say. And of course, they will think exactly the same of you.
Inspiring and Motivating Friend
To you this friend is perfect in every way. The downside is that they want you to be just as perfect. They can motivate and inspire you but at the same time you can also get annoyed with their over enthusiasm and pushiness. More likely than not, this friend is a go getter and excels in their relationships as well as careers which you are lacking in one or the other or both. Maybe they make more money, have more friends or simply that they have better values than you.
Their pushiness and pesterings may drive you up the wall, but they can also encourage you to aim higher, be better, and live a more meaningful life. Instead of feeling envious, you use their positive energy to boost yours. A motivator should never make you feel small, but they will cheer you on to be a better person and make the most of your life. And they do it because they know it is for your own good.
