Hi! Friend, yeah! I say hi! Friend. So how does the word "Friend" mean to me? For me, friend is a people who share interests, goal ,idea, happiness, misery, and a lot of other things with me. You all are my friends. But I divided friend into two categories. The first one is good friend, and the second one is bad friend. How about you guys? What does the word friend mean to you? Share your valuable idea..please..:-)

A friend is one who walks in when the rest of the world works out.Most people walk in and out of your life but a best friend leaves footprints in your heart.A friend is like a four leave clover: hard to find and lucky to have.When it hurts to look back, and you're scared to look ahead,you can look beside you and your friend will be there.A friend is one who thinks you're special when the rest of the world thinks you're a jerk.A best friend spends time with you,shares ideas,respect your differences and sticks up for you when no one else will.I hope you find such friend,when you do appreciate that friend for who he/she is, don't expect him/her to be perfect and pls dont ever compare that friend with any other. Yup. that is what a friend means 2 me

Human is a social animal and he requires some-one called a friend to love in the society. in my opinion, a friend is a person who is ready to share your thoughts and feeling in an unprejudiced manner and give practical and wise solution to your problems. he must be able to freely interact with you and show you the correct path if you are ever misguided inyour life. a TRUE freind is not a person who will always say the things which fancy you. But, he may give you some advise which you may not prefer but it may be the right choice for you. one has to be very careful while choosing friends because if you enter into a bad company then it is very difficult to come out of that web.. so, we must be wise and witty to choose the right friend and proceed in life with a nice person behind our back...

hi, nheansocheath. Friends means a lot to me, I would try my best to help my friends and I know my friends would help me to when I am in trouble. Some people may think that Being friends, they should be willing to share their experience, should be a good listener. I don't think so. I think I am quite a good friend to my friends. But I don't like to share my experience and secrets with them, and I don't like to hear them complain or even go length to tell me something. I know some of them are not good at keep secret, they just can't help telling others about me and my secret. I hate that, and the worse thing is, be a friend, I have to learn to forgive her.

Friend is someone who shares interests and will always be there when you need them. I put stock on loyatly on true friends. I know that is probably a old thing but I do put stock on loyatly and wanting people to be there when I need them. Friend is someone you can hang out with and share memories with.

The word friend is a word of diverse meanings, a person may have his own definition of a friend. A friend for me is simply a true person, someone you have accepted and have accepted you no matter who you are. A friend is someone who you trust, you love, you care for and you have fun with. A friend is a gem, because out of all the many people, you we're able to build a special connection. A friend is someone who supports you, who criticizes you when something is wrong, all in all a friend is someone who is always there for you, someone you can count on when all else fails. :)

hi friend " every friend can say i can understand your feelings but a true friend will always say i can feel your feelings...That's the magic of true friendship". its true,so many friends share our feelings but they don't support one particular time,they escape.but true friend always with you they don't go away. you choose good friend and enjoy.

the word friend means a lot if the friend knows the meaning . and there are some out there who dont . i use the word friend daily . a good friend is one who will be there for you regaurdless of the situation , how much it may cost them , where they have to travel to help. a bad friend is one that says i will be there and they aint , or says call me if you need anything , and when you call they avoid you. and the worst friend is a backstabber. and i had on of those before nitce i said i had
