Friends are Forever

Lova has many important personal relationships that she maintains, but none are more important to her than her friendships. Lova states that she has always prioritized her friends over boyfriends, “I have had many crushes on boys over the years, and I can’t remember most of them, but I can remember every friend that I have ever had, because they have all influenced me in some way.” Currently, Lova has a small group of close friends that she knows she can always count on. “Alyssa, Danielle, and Deirdre are my absolute best friends at OU, and they are also my roommates which is really great, every night is like a sleepover,” she says with a smile. And even though Lova currently has a boyfriend of over three years, Cody, she still relies mainly on her girlfriends, “Cody is great, but if I have a real problem I would definitely call my friends before I would call him.”
