Well I suppose I just got a lot of peoples attention! (lol just joking). Anyway the idea of this is for everyone to get a chance to tell the world one good and special thing about one of their closest friends. This is only for friends, this doesn't count dating/marriage relationships. So what would you say is one good thing that makes your friend a great friend? I thought this would be a great way of expressing our thoughts for our good friends :)

The good thing about my friend is there willingness to be there whenever I need them.

My best friend is very caring. Like for instance, my boyfriend and I went to celebrate her birthday with other friends about 2 weeks ago, and my boyfriend and I both got really wasted. Well, she wouldn't let us drive back home like that so she and her boyfriend drove us back home. She drove my car with me in it, while her boyfriend drove his car with my boyfriend in it. To me that shows that she really cares. And she does things like that all the time. That's the main reason why she's my best friend and I love her so.

Lucky me, I have no close friends. So instead I will tell you of my dream friend. My dream friend is one who-like the guy who's friend takes him to chemo-is there for me. Tells me the truth without yelling and calling me stupid just because our ideas are different. A deep friendship allows each to be free of cumbersome ideas or ideals. Is accepting even if the action is offensive to the other. I certainly understand that some times space may be given, because we need our space from friends, family and life. But doesn't berate me because I need time away for reflection. If I invite my friend to dinner and she shows up really late....I would give no recriminations and would expect the same from her. My friend would defend me to my enemies and love me no matter what. Hmmmmmm I think a dog or my cats will fill the bill of treating me the way I want to be treated. So scratch the friendship, please.

Well Chrisrock619, I have this awesome friend that I talk to on the net and he just understands me. Can't really explain it he just knows what to say and when to say it. He knows when to tell me to smarten up and when to say good job all right etc... He also knows when to send me a hug or a kiss through the net. And when he does that it is like I can actually feel his arms around me. We just have this connection it is so amazing. I feel like we have known each other for years but yet we have never actually met. I know I can tell him anything and he can deal with it and will talk to me again. Anyway, he is this amazing person.

I forgot to mention that you haven't told anyone about your friend chris! What makes your closest friend just that?

I'm really really really thankful to have a friend like D "Evar" M because even though I've been a really bad friend to her she's always there for me ^_^

The one good thing I'd want to say about my best friend is she is always there for me and never lets me down. I haven't seen her forever because she lives in Texas and I live in Kentucy.

I have this friend, Billie Jo, and she is great. She has faith in me when I don't think I can accomplish something, and she is always understanding and encouraging. Awesome friend to have.

I have a friend I met in college who is just always making me laugh, makes me feel good about myself, and is really kind and supportive of me whenever I'm going through rough times. :) This was a great discussion topic! Thanks for starting it!

My very best friend I have known for many years. The first time we met we hit it off right from the start. Over the years when I have needed someone who would listen to me and not try to give me advice she has been there. Through thick and thin she has been a strong leaning post and I appreciate her more and more each day. She is not only my best friend but my sister. Not through blood but by her actions to me.

My best friend and I have been friends for about 15 years now and she is more or less like a sister. She knows everything about me and vice versa and no matter what, we have always tried to be there for each other through the good and the bad. I miss her dearly and hope to visit her in Hawaii one day soon.

I have a great friend who knows how to push but also knows when to pull back. She can be very encouraging on the lowest of days. And when space is needed, we don't have that awkward 'is it something i said or did' speech. Sorry to all the rest of you, but she is my best friend. Lol. Nice topic.
