How many friends do you have? (I mean "close friend") Since when you started your friendship? Do you believe that your personality is shown in the number of your friends = whether or not you are a good person? Does it mean that if you do not have many friend you are not a good person?

I have about "3" close friends. We started our friendship when we were already high school. I started my friendship with one of my close friends when we were still in grade 5. I don't think the no. of your close friend can determine whether you are a good person or not. I think that those people who have lesser close friends are just shy and finds it difficult to interact with new sets of people. I for one do not have that many no. of close friends. I am a shy type of person and it is really difficult for me to find new friends.Who are we people to judge a person if he or she is good or bad by just counting the number of her friends ryt? :)

hi i don't think if one doesn't have many friends implies he is not a good person. In my language, that fellow is ill lucked. I have a quite a few good friends. I can say all of them as my close friends. But to select just a limited number, then i'll say i have 3 good friends. These 3 friends are with me for last 20 years or so. We share our joys and sorrows and try to help each other morally whenever we feel it is needed.

You say "close friend".It's better not to have much I think.I have two "close friend" in my friends.I tell them something I wouldn't like to tell someone else.It's tired to maintain the friendship if you have a lot.I wouldn't like to make friends for some purpose to my career or business.Friends cannot be replaced everything in any situation even when you are down and out.Cherish what you have already now.

I have only 2 very close friends. One of them is my classmate, I know him from the first grade. We are just like sticked together and grown up together. And my other best friend is from Germany, I lived 1 year in Germany, and he helped me all the time during this year, I just like his character so much and we get along so well. I think if you don't have many friends, it doesn't show, that you're not a good person. It all depends. And I prefer good friend always to a friend.
