Yes that's what friendship is all about giving up your ego and trust the person completely but i wouldn't say sacrificing is the right word..I would rather call it giving it up willfully for someone you like..

Hi forslahiri! In life we meet a lot of people, Our interaction with them last sometime just for a while, others just passed by, still others last for sometime, others too last for quiet a time, only few remains forever, those few are what we call real friends. As to my experience with what I acknowledge as my true friends, they are the people with whom I relate with mutual understanding, a bond of friendship that blossomed and nurtured, with a foundation, that no amount of disturbance can weather it out. It is a blessing that I found a true friendship with my one real friend, my best friend. Aside from the Lord, she is the one who knows me inside out as she is to me. We are more than friends for we had established a bond liken to as sisters. To date we had instances of sharing and sacrificing when we need each others advice as to problems that we encounter in life. As we would always mention, we give thanks for being there always for each other.

Depends on what it is, I thought I had hard core friends, then they turned out to be weirdos. And then I wouldn't sacrfice nothing for them. Ever been through that?

When Friendship and love for a person requires the other to use the term sacrifice, then there the person needing to sacrifice is has issues that they need to resolve themselves. In any relationship, the only two people can do is accept the other. On any given day each other will be thinking and going through so many internal thoughts, some self deprecating. The friend, one who accepts my ideology of friendship similar to the one you may have with a cat or a tree, it is what it is and I accept that I have no control over the other except for myself.
