And I dont mean your best friend here on mylot. But in your real world. Who would you say was your best friend. And what the the things you like about him/her. And is there any thing that you dislike about him/her and wished you could change that one habit.....

I do not have any best friend in real life. yes I am telling you this frankly. i was cheated big time by my so called best friend. that person was just taking advantage of my friendship.

I do not think that just because one friend has cheated you all the other friends should be banned. Hope you meet someone whom you can trust more.

My best friend can be divided broadly into three categories. One from my school, one from my college and one from my office. My school friend has many qualities e.g. he is ready to come for my help any time, but if he helps me once, he expects that I should help him twice. I can count upon him. Likewise my college best friend is very gentle and nice man. He always asks about my well being, we keep in touch. But he is bit reserve, sometimes, he does not share all his secrets with me, which I suppose, he should. My office best friend is my distant relative also, I do not find any negative in him. He is gem of a person and is always ready for any kind of help and go out of the way, to help me out of any trouble. I can count on him, as well. I won't like to change habit of any of my friends, they are unique in their own sense.

Yes I think we should all accept our friends for what they are and not want them to be like how we would want them to be. My friends too are unique to me and I love them for who they are. Thanks a lot for your response and happy posting.

Hi friend, I have quiet a lot of best friend in my school age.But know my best friend is myself and computer.Because when we born we are yborn alone and when we die we die alone,so while taking a birth we dont have best friend.I came to know this for my grandmother so from that day onwards i thought of keeping myself as my best friend. Have a nice day.

Yes we are all born alone but during this life we meet a lot of people and some of them come much more closer to us than others. Each of us has a friend and sometimes that friend may become our life partner. Its nice to know that you love yourself more than others.

Hi Dear i have read this discussion and i was not sure what to reply about it or not so i skipped it, Sure i have best friends, as they are couple of them and i like them as they are friends and supportive, i never dislike anything in them as i know no one is perfect , have plus and negative points, and u accept them as it is. So no point of dis liking. Take care

That is a diplomatic answer. I thought you would be telling me something about your best friends. No problem you can always send me a personal message about that. Bi and have a nice day.

That seems to be a very diplomatic reply. Even though we know everyone cannot be perfect there would still be somethings that we dont like. Of course you still accept them the way they are. Thanks for your reply and happy posting.

I used to have a best friend but there were a lot of things that changed between us but we're still friends but only close friends not anymore best friends. Right now there is one person that I trust a lot and, with that person I could be the real me. That person is my girlfriend, who I consider my best friend as well

My best friend is my wife because she deals and put's up with all my shortcomings. But otherwise I think that's what makes a good best friend.

When your spouse is your best friend I think life is a bed of roses.

well does my partner count? he is my best friend in the real world. i'd go to him when i need advice or when i just need to vent. i do have some friends but i'm not so close to them compared to my partner. having friends means accepting them as they are. i like everything about my friends. from the way they talk to the way they walk. i mean we wouldn't be friends if i didn't like it right? i don't wish to change anything about my friends as that's what make them unique. even quirks that irks me sometimes is what i like about them. i can't imagine making friends with perfect people as i'd feel so insecure around them.

Thanks a lot for your response. Good to be having a friend close by who is always there for you. And yes its difficult for me too to be friends with perfect people. In fact I dont think I have as yet found anyone perfect.

well i have a male and female bestfriend. i met my female bestfriend when we were in high school we're 12 or 13 that time and until now we never loose communication with each other even though we're both busy. while my male bestfriend was my bf. we became best friends when i transferred to a computer school 5 years ago. then after that we decided to try our luck as bf and gf. thankfully, we survived some of the trials and challenges that we've faced

Well, I had a couple of best friends during the years. So, but there was one girl, that really was my best friend. We were friends in the sixth grade. She was so nice to me. She made creative ornaments for me. Her mom loved me. She was not prejudice. We hanged out in school. She moved to Mexico, and I have not seen her since. She was one of the best friends that I could have known. I miss her so much. I am going to try to find a way that I can contact her. I just can't wait until I see her..

Well, my husband is probably my best friend - but naturally he has lots of habits which drive me crazy! None of them are very desperate or important in the scheme of things ... but I wish he'd use a plate when he made toast and put it on the table next to his chair ... it makes a greasy mark on the table or mat, and it would be much easier to wash up a plate!

do best friends need a lot of talk though they are far apart or one of them always says little?without a lot of talk,can we confirm he or she is my best friend when we understand each other and tell each other our secerts in heart?i think a person tells her heart is really your best friend ,do you agree that?

I dont think best friends need to communicate to each other daily. Its just that they understand each other and trust each other. And you know she is there to listen to you when you want her to.
