Family or Friend???? Who is the best???

hi, nice to meet you here! I think friend and family both is important for me. Family can give love for us which friend cant. On the other hand, friend also can give the fun for us which the family cant. But, i also treats my best friend as my family! Because they treat me true as what u treat to them also. If we at outside, of course friend is more important because sometime we might need their help when our family is not around us. Friend can be like family members. Have a nice day and happy my lotting!

I think your question is : can friend be like our family member??? Right? For me friend is friend. Friend cannot be our family member, unless he or she became our family by marriage. Family is family. Family can be friend, but friend cannot be family... I have a friend when I was at University. In that time, he was closer to me than my brother who studied in the same University. But after graduate, he chose his way, and I with my way... That what usually happen between best friend...

anyway, i think cherishing the present is any of us should do! when you feel lonely,the door of mylot is always open for you!

I am not sure about the friends and family thing. People are people and they are either nice or nasty and you either like them or you don't no matter how they are related to you. The only difference is that families tend to have some common interest which means that sometimes you have to get on with members of the family even if you don't wish to. I think you relate to who you wish too as much as possible and those you have too when it is necessary.

Family is helpfull in some situation's suppose a student studying away from his home and requires money every month then he can only ask to his family although he can ask to his friends but every time it is not possible. Family relation is a blood relation and no one can ignore it.He has to maintain a blood relationship even though i don't want. On the otherhand Friends are helpfull in every situation. You can share share your internal fellings to your friends which makes you feel better in struggling stuations. Friendship does not know gender,blood relation,rich,poor. Friendship only knows Friendship nothing else means a poor person can have a rich friend,male can have a female friend. A old guy can have a young friend or vice-a-versa. There are n number of relations are possible in friendship.

Friends come and go but your family will always be your family. Sure, you can have close friends and those friends can beocme like siblings but in the end they have their own families as well.

Hi vid, Family for me..I am always open to them ever since and they're always there to guide me and to give me advices when needed..I also listen to my friends and share to them..but, in m life, I made all the decisions and there are experiences when I don't need to open up to anyone since I know those are just too light and I can handle it!

Hi Vidya, for me family & friends are two separate worlds. Also it depends on our age. In our childhood we are nearer to our family but as we grow we get friend & we like them. We can choose our friends. You are saying that your brother is your best friend. You know how we miss our family when we are far away from them & at that time friends are nearer to us.

The reason why you share things with your friends more than your family is probably because they are the same age as you and you can be open to them. But family will probably butt in to your life. But family always comes first to me. You can always make friends, but when you are away from the ones that love you the most, you see how much you miss them.

of course family is the best some friends you cant know really good so they cant leave you alone in bad situation, but your family never do something like that they are always with you, however there can be also friends which are like your family you can share all your secrets with them ask always their opinion ,however you really have to know him good and trust him and know that he is not going to leave you alone ever before doing these

Now a days its hard to get a friends forever kinda friends. But i managed to get two of them, they were there with me all the time when i was in trouble... And for Me again my family members are my best friends too, they are the one who push me whenever i need some inspiration. They are the one who backed me for every decision i take. But if you ask me Family or Friend .. who is best...? I cant really answer this question, because they had been two eyes of Me... Now can somebody tell me which eye of your is best Right one or Left one...? Definately No one will tell which is best isnt'it...? Hope I made some sense in my response.

In my experience,NO WAY.I've always been one who talked about alot of stuff with my friends that I would not talk about with my family.I think most people are like that,but the thing is i've NEVER been stabbed in the back by a family member.My family has always been there for me,especially since losing lower part of both my legs.I've always backed up my friends,kept my door open for them so to speak.But when the going got tough for me and I needed THEIR help,they suddenly developed amnesia and forgot all the times I helped them.Now all I have is my parents,brother,and sister.In the long run,a friend will skin you alive to save their own skin.

ME, personally, In my younger days, my friends were the most important thing to me... but when i went away to college I never felt more free in my life I didn't miss my family one single bit.. I know you must be thinking am an ungrateful person but when my mums or dads or sister or brothers birthday came along I never felt more alone I wanted to be there to celebrate with them but never could but i was never alone during my birthday thankful for that my birthday was during Christmas break. ALL in ALL i say family and friends are equal... you got your family you've gotta live with 'em you don't gt a second family but you choose your friends... pick wisely or end up unhappy!

Frieds give me lots of help when I am far away from my home.My parents give me everything,suppot me ,forgive me forever.Parents will never hate me.They are everthing for me.But ,sometimes,we have generation gap.

In retrospect, family is better in the long term and friends are better when you're young. In my early days I got a lot more from my friends than my family ever. Now, at age 57 its my family that's my main support. I guess in youth its the buddy, buddy concept and in later days your family obligations and loyalty take over.

I tend to go to my friend with alot of my personal thinkings than my family for my family just is basically like "yah what ever" and my friend are more careing and understanding it seems and take the time to isten and be ter more than family are. I do wish my family were more like my friends though and would be more understanding when I talk to them about anything.

For me the friends is the best,i know if my family heard what i said they must have been heart-broken...however,it's my true mind,at least in this moment i think so.Maybe i was older my mind will change,in that time i may consider the family is the best,i think we have the different answers in the different age segment.

Yes they can be. Friends are people you choose for yourself. I would liken them to disposable items. you get loads of them and as time goes on you decide which ones are dearest to you and you hang on to them, or the ones that are no good and you evict them from your life. Family, you are stuck with for life. Sometimes it is like serving a life sentence with those that, if it were not against the law, you would murder without a second thought. At other times, it is like being in an all consuming love affair where nothing else matters. Either way they are there for life it can not be changed and you do not have a choice. If you choose good friends they could stick with you through thick and thin and in most cases become indistinguishable from family

i always prefer my family than my friends.. your right when i was on high school i also thought that my friends are better than my family but as I grow I've notice that friends are only their for you on good times, but when bad times are there they always disappear..but my family even its bad or good they are still on my bad to support me and help me in times of need

My answer to this is yes, friends can be just like family. I have known my best friend since I was nine and I'm 23 now, so we practically grew up together. I was there when she moved into her new house, we met in second grade and then moved to a new school together.I remember when she got her two new dogs, and at 15 when she got pregnant, I was there when her son was born, he is six years old now just in July he turned six.She is younger than me by a year but just like a little sister that I actually got a long with. She was the peace keeper in our little group of friends at school when we were younger. To this day we are still friends,I moved to a different state,but we still keep in contact through phone,email,instant messenger etc. So friends can be your family.
