So heres the question... How many friends you have that you can actually say, wow i can really count with this person. And i mean in the good and bad times. I mean any type of support, it could be finantial or plain moral. simple as that. So how many people do you know you can count on a 999%?

i think its really ironic that you are asking this because i have a friend that told me the other day that her boyfriend told her that i said a lot of crap about her and that i was wanting to get with her, and all of that and i told her that i would confront him about it and she said no no no, and then she ask him about it and he said he lied about me and that he was just trying to catch her because he didn't trust her, and now shes not talking to me anymore, so very few for me!

Well, Sometimes things like this happen, some people you can trust ans some others you just can't. Everyone is a different world so therefore people mwill say things that can get other hurt.

I have a few "real friends" ones that I like and can hang with and can go to for certain things. However I have 1 BEST FRIEND, that I would trust with everything in my life. I also know that I could go to her with anything and she would be there for me. True, real friends are hard to find.

I have one friend that is like a sister to me. I can tell her anything without any kind of judgement that would be there for me no matter what. She is my closest friend. I have three more I travel with every year that I honestly think would be there for me if I were truly in need. And then I have one more that is a man who I'm very close to who often balances me out. So the grand total would be five.

I have one best friend who lives close by that I know I can always count on. I have at least 4 more that I know I can count on, though it may take them some time to get here. Being a good friend is hard work. You have to put in the time and the effort otherwise people grow apart. Also you need to pick people who will always have your back and keep your secrets. Loyalty is very important to me when picking my friends.

I've been fortunate to be blessed with several very good friends. Even though each friendship is different, I could count on any of them. If I would ever need any financial help, and I hope I never do, they would help me if they could.

I have one dear friend who I would count on for anything and would trust with anything. I also have 3 other friends who I know would be there for me if I needed something. As far as financial I would not want to ask any of these people for anything but if I had to I would probably start with my best friend of 30+ years but have never had to ask anyone and hopefully never will. They are all great for moral support!

I can actually say that I do have a few good friends, who have been there for me, both in good and bad times. Those friends I intend to keep for a long time. I think that they are too good of friends to want to lose. We don't get to see each other a lot because of our busy and different schedules, but the times we do spend together we always have a blast! We always have fun.
