Are you a good shoulder for your friends?

i do agree with that but usually i find that i am not able to unburden myself completely whrn i am with human friends.thats one of the reasons why i find so much of solace in the chruch and my mother also gives me comfort to some extent.

I must admit that as I grow older I am not as good a shoulder as I use to be. I find that my tolerance for the human condition is much shorter. I particularly have a problem with people who make the same mistake over and over again. I have changed hair dressers just because I couldn't hear one more man problem that she got into. I swear it was the same man over and over, he was just in a different body. I need positive people in my life at this time.

I have one really good friend that knows all and I can go to for anything and evreything and a few others that I know I could go to... I would like to think I am a good person to come to and lean on... Alot of my friends have come to me for that reason... I always help others where I can... I have had more lean on me than I have ever leant on others.... It is wonderful that people have somebody or something to help them through tough times... Life is not meant to be easy, there are many obsticles to hurdle across omoungst the good.... What doesn't kill us only makes us stronger....

No not any more I have no shoulder to cry on. and I do hope that I have good strong shoulders for any one to cry on if need be.

Hello my friend zandi458 Ji, I am always delighted, if someone wants my support. In fact, i come out frankly, if any one needs my help. The more you give to others (in fact, help Almighty to help Him in His duties), we can always expects from Him with their multipication dividend. So let's find some ways to help others happily. may god bless you and have a great time.

YES iam always ready to help my freinds in anyways.And that saying is absolutely correct no one can take place of a freind.as it said that all other relations are made by destiny but only freindship is the one which we choose.

I am a good friend. Many people , who are my friends have needed their help in time of need. But I am also cheated in one place. One friend, whom i supported so much, cheated me when he had his things done.

Hi! Zandi! Yes, I can say it with conviction that I could be a good shoulder for my dear friends, whenever they need me. I believe in the philosophy that a 'Friend in need is a friend indeed'. Whenever any of my friends approaches me for my assistance, help, advice or he/she simply wants to share his/her grievance, I remain there for him/her. I know that friends approach me because they trust me and they have faith in me that I'll definitely provide them with some relief. I try to do my best to lessen their problems and difficulties with the my available resources. Like-wise, when I am in trouble or need their help, I approach them, without any kind of hesitation. I think it is mutual and it takes two to tango.

Oh yeah... I found a very good shoulder to lean on and cry on at times. And I treasure the person who owns that pair of shoulders so much, I married her! And likewise, she found my shoulders to be very good to lean on and well, cry on too. Yeah, we all need that shoulder of support every once in a while. Especially during those really trying times when we do not know who to look for or what to do with the problem at hand.

I think I am or at least I hope I am. My friends do feel comfortable coming to me in times of trouble just to talk. Actually, I tend to get that with even complete strangers. As for me in times of need....oh yes, I do have a great circle of friends. It is very rare that I use their shoulders but I have to say that when I have....they have been the best.

everybody nheeds a friend that has a good shoulder. i do have those kind of friends. i have big shoulders for them to. i'm a very good listener.

I think I am in my own point of view. I listen to my friends problems and help them the way I can. In friendship you have to value your friends trust and loyalty.

zandi458,you are very right .everyone has his presure and hardtime in life .When I was in such situation ,I found I can not find a person to share my unbearable time .Not becasue of my unbelieving my friends ,but I am reletant to open my heart to tell my best friend .I don't want to bring anything troublesome to them .But I am willing to listen to my best friends' uncontency in life .I don't know why ? I know friendship is very important to us .May our friendship forever ,mylottings!

Hi there,I really agree with "the greatest healing therapy is friendship and love".I am a guy who is 24 years old.I have a lot of friends during different periods in my life,but only a few of them are still keep in touch with each other now,it's a pity which I think is a regret matter.I suppose my shoulder could be useful when my friend get into trouble.Actually,not all of my friends would like to talk with me since only two or three of them are my close friends,but if u are my close friend I would like to do my best to share your feeling and give a hand to u,if u are a common friend of mine,my should is loyalty for u either.Best wishes for all my friends^^

hello zandi 458, Well my friends like to call me and share all their problems , and i actually do my best to listen to them and advise if i can. But mostly i don't like to bore people with my problems i only speak one of my friends if i am a little drunk, and she is a great friends and helps me almost all of my problems. Have a great day!

Hey zandi! I do have friends that I can talk to when I need them and the know that if they need me I am here for them too! A good friendship is one that works both ways! I try not to burden my friends with my problems to often. I prefer to listen if possible. I don't share my feelings with just anyone. But, it still is good to know that if I do need to share my feelings that there is someone who is there for me who will listen and not judge and help me through the tough times!

I do have people to talk to when I really need to, and it does help because I am able to get a different perspective on things when I am unable to do it for myself. Although I have people to talk to, I don't tal;k unless I really feel I have to. On the other hand, I am a great shoulder for my friends and family. I don't know how many times my best friend has called me late a tnigh just to vent or ask for my advice. I don't care if it is 3 in the morning, I am there for my friends and family.

i have some good friends for me to lean on, specially when i was done. insyaAllah, i'm a good shoulder for my friends, at least i'll try to do my best to help them whenever they need me. and the quote there "The greatest healing therapy are friendship n love" yes, i agree ! based on my experiences, when i was confused n lost about something in my life, and i share it to ask an advises from my friends, it did help alots..really helped alots trust me. they could bring back my smile again and ease my mind many times, with lots of jokes again afterwards..

to have a true friend is a really great blessing from above. those characteristics you have shared about being a good shoulder to lean on is quite natural in all of us, we just don't know how to use those natural instincts that is why we have never or often been seen as good friends.. in my case i just can't help it. i have few friends, i consider them as my treasures and maybe that's the reason that i may be a good shoulder for my friends..

I have a shoulder for my friends if they ever need me. If they have a problem, I would be there for them. I don't have a shoulder right now though that I could trust. I love your saying "the greatest healing therapy is friendship and love" because it is soooo true. Everyone wants to feel needed, loved and respected. And sometimes all we ever really need is a hug.
