I consider myself very lucky because I have two best friends which makes me feel really great,one of course is my fiance who is the most important person in my life, I love her,and she loves me,and she always knows how to make me smile,and make me laugh,and make me feel better when I am sad,or angry,and we have been together for over a year now and we spend every moment together,my other best friend is a guy I met in school,we have the same birthday except I am three years older than him,and when we found out we instantly became best friends,and we have been best friends since my senior year of high school so we have been friends for four years,and I would do anything for him,and he would do anything for me,and I would do anything for him,me and my fiance do not see him a lot,but he does call me almost every day,and when he has a day off,he tries to come spend the night here,so we can play video games,and hang out.

I've been friends with my best guy friend for about 18 years. He married my best girl friend, whom I've known for about 10 years. Makes it very convenient for me, one phone call and I can do all my catching up!

Lets see -
Best Friend - just shy of 30 years. We live across country now but have sustained our friendship through ups and downs, cross country moves, marriage, children, divorce.
Other Best Friend - 24 years. We aren't as close and our friendship is different but when we get together it is as if we were never apart. It is an odd friendship but valued by both of us.
Other Very close friend - 12 years. She and her husband are both dear friends of mine. Her husband worked for me at one time and she and I become friends through that relationship.
I have other friendships many 10 years plus. I tend to keep friendships that I value. I don't make friends easily; acquaintences yes - friends no. But once I trust you I keep you.

i dont have best friend, but i have many close friend that i can tell any under the sun. During college days we form a group 8 and until now, even if they have their own families we still have time to bond atleast once a year for they live in different countries. through internet chatting is our way of communication. i have a childhood friend and up to now we are still close together and we see each other everyday for we are neighbor.

I met my friend Javier many, many years ago when I went to study in the city where he was living at the time. In the year I was there we became good friends and I saw him again a couple of years later when I left that country. I did not hear about him again for many years and I had no idea where he was. I looked for him in telephone books in the Internet, but did not find him. Then one day I looked for him again and found his name in the telephone book of the city where he was born! Without being sure whether the person was really my friend, I wrote to him and I got a reply! I could not believe it! We have been in contact ever since, but I have not been able to go to Peru to see him again and he has not been able to come to Europe either. We still have hopes of seeing each other one day though. If you would like to know how long we have been friends, well, we first met back in 1973, that is 35 years ago! But like Gardel, the famous tango singer used to say, 20 years are nothing! How true!

Ever since I was in the third of fourth grade. (so that means since I was 8 to 9 years old. I'm 34 years old now. So that would mean we've been friends for 24 or 25 years. This was my childhood friend.
But really, my wife is my best friend now. We've known each other for 12 years since April, 1996(I could talk to her about anything, and vice versa) We've been married for 8+ (will be 9 years in January).

By now the one who is regarded as my Authentic pal is the one I got to know more than a decade ago.
We are the same age. He is 2 months older than I. When he changed his home from other place and at my school we are friends. Then the friendship between us has been lasting for more than 10 year. WE both cheer for that.
That's the pride of my friend and I.
