what's a friend's purpouse?

Friendship is such a wonderful thing and should enrich the lives of those involved. I disagree with what your friend said about friends having to always know how you feel and try to comfort you. Yes, friends should be there to comfort you. However, the reason you became friends in the first place more than likely was because you saw something in them you liked and/or wanted and that you found them interesting. Maybe you were even curious to get to know them better. Sometimes friendship isn't always about understanding. If you best friend didn't understand, he or she would still be there to offer the shoulder for you to cry on, so to speak. Friends sometimes have common goals that they're reaching for together. Friends should help each other. If you have a friend who is only in your life because of what they can get from you, that's not a true friend. There are also "fair-weather friends" who aren't really friends at all. They're only around when they need you or when they have something to gain by being your friend. Friendship isn't 50 percent and 50 percent from each person. It's 100 percent and 100 percent. You mentioned friends knowing and understanding you deeply. I believe this all comes in time of your best friends who have been around for a while. Obviously, when you first meet someone and anticipate having a friendship or relationship with that person, they can't understand you and your feelings right away because they don't know you well enough yet. Eventually in time, they will learn more about you and grow to understand you. Friendship is all about caring about others and enriching people's live one individual at a time. If everyone knew how to be a good friend, what a wonderful place the world would be!

A true friend is one doesn't always understand you but will be there for you. They share time together and help each other out without expecting anything in return. A friend doesn't have to understand to be able to listen when you have a problem. Just listening will give your friend insite to a possible solution. A true friend doesn't put you down no matter what. They respect what your feelings are about things. Even if what they feel isn't what you feel. I have one true friend and we are so close we call each other sister.

Friends are like mirrors.They reflect you self.They are what you yourself are.Then it becomes utmost necessary to have friends because otherwise you may become lonely.Loneliness may catch up to you.Actually when you are friends with someone,you give a part of emotion to that guy and you are connected with him.I actually helps because it destresses you and the helps you move forward.A friend is needed to celebrate with you your joy,share the burden of your sorrows and above all letting you be you.

Ive been told that if you have 5 true friends in life you are truely blessed. To me friendship is responsability twards each other. Give what you can and take what you need. I will do anything for my friends (legal). I know they will do the same for me. I believe a person should love a true friend like a family member. If they get in trouble instead of baling them out-sit it out with them.
