Do you get confuse what to answer when someone asks you "Who is your bestriend?" because you have lots of best friends?
Why do you say that your best friend is your best friend?
How do you consider them as your bestfriends?
Anyway, I have lots of friends too and even best friends.
They have different personalities and characteristics, but all I know we bacame best friends because of the things we do together, the experiences and memories we shared with each other. The more we hang-out together, the more we bacome close friends.
For me, FRIENDSHIP is an act of how you treat other people well. How you're concern with them and how you respect them.

I really only have two best friends. Mainly because I don't have that many friends. My life went in a different direction than most of my friends so they slowly started dropping off the radar. My one best friend is my best friend because not matter where life has taken us in the 22 years since we met, we've always remained friends. My other best friend I met in highschool when she moved to our area. We get along really well and even though i'm married with 3 kids and she is still living the single life, we have remained friends also.

Hi Sugar
Me too, I have so many friend in my life.. But all of them I treated them as my bestfriend. I consider them as my bestfriend, by knowing their character and traits..

I don't get confused with the term, 'coz I know who they are very clearly. I have 6 best friends (including my hubby). The others are good friends and just regular friends. My best friends are the ones who've known me pretty much inside-out. I've shared my dirty little secrets with all of them he he he....they're the ones who're still in touch with me until now.

I have one best friend, who has been my best friend for 30 years now. I was 7 and she was 8 years old when we met each other and we have been friends ever since. She is a great buddy and all I can ask for as a confidant and a great shoulder to cry on in times of trials. I love my best friend and she is crazy about me. She has seen me through my marriages, the birth of my children and every other important event in my life. I thank God for giving me someone like her to be my friend.

i am getting old for best friends. most of my close friends were in school. when i was in school, i had a best friend every 2 years.
first grade--i had one best friend.
2nd grade--i was new, and didnt hang with any person. just meeting different people
3rd and 4th grade--one best friend.
5th and 6th grade--one best friend.
7th and 8th grade--one best friend.
9th grade--i was new again, and was meeting different people.
college for BA--for two years--my dorm mates grew on each other and developed a close bond. out of the 50 people in your dorm, maybe a group of 20 became close together.
college for MBA--2 best friends.
college for graphics--6 best friends.

I have several acquaintenances as I call them. you know people you see occasionally but never really get close to them. But as far as what I call a best friend I have 3 of them.
I have known all of them since I can remmber and I consider myself their best friend to. I am closer to them than I am my own sisters, just in a different way.
One should appreciate a true friend they are few and far between in this life!

Finding good friends is very difficult,but it is more difficult to choose one with whom you can share your feelings,best friend means only one good friend among all good friends so it is very confusing to tell others who is the best friend among all.....

I guess that depends on your definition of a friend. I feel I have some friends on the Internet, but I don't know them. In some cases, I don't know whether they're, male or female and have no idea whether they're young or old. Etc. etc. etc. of course, none of those things are important, as long as they are only on the Internet. Now, I think the most common answer to that question. When you ask a married man is that he will see his best friend and his wife. I cannot argue with what you say about friends. It certainly is very very true, but there is one other word very very important trustand support are crucial good luck, have a great day, and perhaps one day I can say that sugarkoh is a friend of mine

I have so many friends. But the best friend that I have is no other than my whole life partner. She is the friend who is not me, but the other self whom I shared my being, my joys, pains, sorrows, and hardships. She is the best friend who also shares her being, her wholeness and her life. We both respect for one another and have concern for one another. My wife is my bestfriend.

I have many friends,but I should say I have a few best friends.I think best friend are those people who have the same interests and hobbies with you.They have the same opinions and ideas about one thing.Best friends should have common topics to talk about.I think my best friends are those people who make me feel comfortable when I am with .

i did have a best friend in high school and elementary. now we go to different schools and we dont see each other that much now so there is no more friend connection. yes, we are still friends but it is just not the same as today and before. right now, i dont have that best friend but i do have close friends who i am with almost everyday. maybe, my best friend in high school is very busy now. i am also busy with school but it would be good if we get to meet up again and catch up. thanks.

I have difficulty in choosing a best friend because most of my friends are soo good so if i choose one i think the other one is as goood os this one. SO 1 thing is sure that i cannot have one best friend. I think my friends circle of 3 people (4 including me)and my friends who are at long distances . i think the total shpould br around 5 - 6 friends but you see it is tough for me. For now i just keep good friends. nothing like best friends

I think best is the word one from lot many so best friend is always one as a guy you may not decided who is best for you but in case of girls they choose only 1 friend as their best friend so i think with whom we are spending a lot many time we think he is the best friend of our but it always not work
