Dear Colleagues,I would like you to give me your thought on this very subject:"How long do you know or go with someone before you could regard that person as a friend,and what are the things you consider before one becomes your friend.Let us know your take on this.

it can be a very broad topic to discuss about, complicated for that matter. i meet someone and in an instant we become good friends and continue to become good friends for years. i also have known someone for many years, considered that someone a friend and after many years that someone turned out to be a traitor. we really can't exactly tell. i guess it depends upon the person you meet. chemistry is also something that can be considered.

I make friends very quickly as am always ready to talk to everyone. I think to be able to go mout with someone you should frist know him well and most important is that you should trust him.

It really isn't a matter of time, as much as it is how you feel when you are around this person. Does he/she make
you feel comfortable, able to be yourself? Do you like the same kinds of things? Do you feel like you have known
this person all your life? Friendship has many meanings to different people. I have friends that are more like
just someone I know & then I have good friends; ones that I can count on & they can count on me. People
you can trust with some very personal parts of your life. Some of my good friends I could tell in a matter of
hours or less, if they were the type of person that I really enjoyed being around. For others, it took much
longer to build up a relationship that was more than just an acquaintance. You will know in a very short time
if someone is really the type of person you want to spend alot of time with, over & over again..
A little long-winded, but I hope this helps. Good luck with your relationships in the future.
Don't spend so much time worrying about how long, just follow your gut feelings OK??
