Do you have a best friend?

Philippines
May 3, 2009 9:58pm CST
We have many friend around us. But you have some one you can say your best friend? How did you consider her/hi your bestfriend? Do you have these mutual feelings? I have many friends but I dont know whom I consider my best friend. They have different attitude some are good and some are not. I have a friend who is good to me but sometime I feel that she's hiding something because when I met her I have known her for being hypocrite and insecure to others. But she is good with her friends and that's include me. I just cant figure out sometimes when is she being true. I also have a friend that can be so annoying. She always feel like she's above us sometime she is domineering but can be helpful at times. I have many friend but I cant say who I can call my best friend. I mean some one who's willing to be there to listen to your problem and to help you with anything. Some you can call anytime and be there for you even she's busy. Thing like that? Is there really a friend that you can call anytime and ask her/him right now to come over because you need him and she/he would be there in a minute? Do you have a friend like that?

Yeah, we've been friends for more than 10 years now. We grow up together because we've been best friends since high school. He is already married now and taking care of one baby boy so he's kind of busy these days but we d keep in touch through messenger or text. We have the same passion and that is computer. He likes games while i like the internet more. We've been through a lot but never had any major arguments or something.

That's good to hear. I also have a friend since elementary and she is maybe the one I can consider my best friends but we havent send much time together so I cant really say that she's my best friend. If only we can spend more time after our elementary maybe our friendship will grow and she'll be my best friend. Thanks for the response!

I only have one best friend and honestly believe that we can only have one true friend..There is a difference between having friends and having best friends. I believe you can only have one best friend, but many friends, which I do have many friends, but only one best one.My best friend is my partner.It is very difficult to get a best friend and every one look money for creating friendship.If we have enough money,so many friends gathered around us and make use of us for their advantage.A real friend ca understand all our problems and help us in all our difficulties.A friend in need is a friend indeed.

Yeah, its really hard to find a real friend these days. I have many friends and I dont know who I can consider my best friend. I only have one best freind right now which is my partner too. Our partner is the only one we can really trust and can be with us in everyway. But its still good to have a best friend that its not your partner but its really hard to find.

I've had several best friends in my life. I had one in high school and while we continue to be friends, she's not the best anymore because we've kind of drifted apart and we're not as close anymore. I had another one in college and I continue to refer to her as my best friend even if we're 3 hours away from each other. I guess the bond that we've forged is so special that even distance and irregular communication do not affect it. She was even my matron-of-honor at my wedding. Ultimately though, the people I'd consider my best friends are the people I'm related to: my husband, my mother, and my sister.

I have a best friend who lives very far from me. Although sometimes she's not there when I need her, at least we talk on the phone, she listens and gives advices. It's good to have that kind of friend, it's like so far yet so near to the heart and i feel blessed.

My problem is that I have tons of friends, but no best friends. For me best friend relationships always end badly.

Yeah, i think its really hard to find a bestfriend who would wish you the best in everything, who would be glad with your achievements and wont envy you, and someone who helps you even it wont gives him benefits. its really hard to tell who your bestfriends are.

yes, I have two best friends, when we were in university, they are my classmates, and also my roommates, we shared everything for each other, almost wherever we go, we will go there together, when some one of us have difficult, we will helped she at the first time. Now we finished school, and we are in three city now, but we often call each other, I will go the ShangHai soon, and will see my best friend, I'm really excited about that.

Like your friend, some people can hardly tell whether I am true or not. Some people judge me as hypocrite, plastic, and a liar too. All I know is I am very fond of practical jokes sometimes so I guess that's the reason why others question my honesty. I just hope they'll see the better side of me but even that, you just can't force on anyone. I also have lots of friends and acquaintances but I only have very few who knows the real me. And still very few who are really really close to me. Sister/brother-like in fact. I have a bestfriend since Grade 4 and we still hang out together up to now. We are both 25 by the way. However, we drifted apart when we went to college and pursued our careers.

Hi there! I am afraid not. I dont have a best friend. I used to have a best friend back in elementary and highschool. I stopped having a a best friend because I broke up with two of my best friend twice already and it was so painful. Even more painful than breaking up with my boyfriend. So NO i dont have one. I prefer not to have any.

I have someone whom I consider as my best friend. I considered her as my best friend because we get to agree on things. No, we don't have common traits. In fact we're two totally different people. Maybe we get along fine because we know how to jive with each others craziness and how to handle each others temperaments.

Its really feels good to have a friend whom you can share everything and who could be with you if you need someone. I have a lot of group of friends too, we go gimmick everytime we met, we remenise the good time that we had but we never talk problems of each other. I dont really have a friend whom I can share my problems with. But I have a gf whom I can everything.

I have many close friends, some friends that aren't as close and then this 1 friend who has been there for me through a lot of things so they are my best friend. We have been best friends for just over 3 years so are relationship is strong and we will probably stay best friends for a long time. However i do not tell her everything, i mean some things i tell one friend but not another, it's just the way i am.

No, I don't know if I can call my best friend anytime and he would be coming but still I consider him my best friend for one reason, he is with me be it a good situation or a bad situation. He was there to help me in my trouble and he was there with me to increase my happiness in my good times. So, this is the definition of a best friend to me. The reason I said that I kinda confused if he would be coming to me whenever I call, is because he is living in a house which follows discipline and he has no rights to come out of the house after 8 in the night!

Yeah, our friends have their own life. I think it only happens on the movie or film, the friend who comes whenever you need her. It just shows what an ideal friend is but it seldom happen in real life.

I can also see it in only movies where stories are built by human mind not by God. Well, I can be one of the friend which are being shown in movies, I will feel me as one of the best friends in this world!

Hi, I have a best friend and she also considers me as her best friend too but we're not that close lately. Since we had children we have been busy and now we live further apart. We used to call each other all the time but we hardly speak on the phone anymore! This is a shame but I know we'll be friends forever:)
