Do you select what friends you would want to have? Well, for me, I really do. It is important for me that my friends are really true. I don't want to be hurt by a friend.
What about you? what are some factors you consider when having friends? It might help others too.
Thanks for sharing.

Sure I am selective with whom I will be with. Friends can influence also in some of our decisions therefore, we must select one that could help us to lift up our good values not the one that would lead us into the wrong path.

Yes, I am selective when it comes to friends. I always make it a point to be friends with good people. Just like you, it is also important for me to have friends who are true and sincere. I made mistakes in the past when it comes to choosing my friends and I sure learned from all the experiences I have had.

yes, I agree that selecting friends is a good idea. But I am not that particular in here. Anybody who requested me to be added to their friend's list I would accept. I don;t want to be rude to people who wants me to be their friends. But when it comes to best friends or close friends so to speak, I am very selectinve.

Not really. I don't mind having anybody as a friend. I'm just happy if someone gives me the time of day. But at the same time I don't want to around someone saying negative things constantly. That's kind of my worst fear, being around someone who refuses to see from your point of view not even for a minute.

oh yes, I agree with your views. Being with people who see things negatively is very frustrating. We want to be with enthusiastic and positive minded people.

I wish I was, but now I'm trying to be so selective. I've been and still with the wrong peers when i first got to college. I'm now in my last year but still I have this regret why I joined the group of people that I have now. I know this sounds really negative but this is what i see. I never thought that they will turn from innocent to a very influencive (negative) people (but i do love them). Now, I learned my lesson, I'm very approachable so any one can really talk to me but I already set my limitations. For the factors, ofcourse the most important thing is God fearing. Nothing beats Christians friends they rock!!!, someone who has a good nature, serious but not boring, and has a very humorous mind, and especially someone who has a good heart you can descern that just pray for it;)

that's a pretty good idea,if you think they are good you can join them but if you see they are not the right company, so,m you can decide not to be with them.

I am pretty selective with my friends. I don't like fake friends. Those who are nice when in front of you but backstabs you when you're not around.

Well, it's always good to select friends. But here in mylot you can not select who is the best of them all because you didn't even see them in person. For me, I accept the invitations that I got. So far, they are good. But when it comes to friends.. that I meet and be with everyday, I mean physically present..lol.. I have to select whom I will hang out with.
Thanks for your reply.
