Everyone needs a friend. How do we really define a friend? One may surely have a good friend. A friend who congratulates you when you make things possible. Others have better friend who takes care of your needs and is always there when you need a shoulder to lean on. He is a friend who sees the brighter side of your humble self. Both the good and the better friends are looking after what you can offer that make them at ease. Are they your true friends? Take one step, find a best friend! A true best friend is the one who sees and accepts your weaknesses and frailties. He expects nothing but the very essence of what frienship really is and should be.

For me to define a real true friend is some one who is there for you when you need them either it be to talk to them a shoulder to cry on. A true friend is someone who is honest and trust worthy will not stab you in the back or be tray you. Can keep a secret is a good listner some one you can go hang out with is like a sister you never had or always wanted. I used to have a best friend and we were good friends for like 4years. She was like a sister to me we do things together help each other out. Talk to each other cry on each other shoulders. It hurt when she told me she didnt want to be friends any more. I didnt know what to do it was like my heart has been ripped out my body. It took me awhile to get over it. We still talk but not like we used to we dont do things like we used to but its ok now. She had a lot going on and pushed me away. It was awful.

A true friend means some one who is always there for you and isn't fake who doesn't tell your secrets and someone who dosen't let another person talk behind your back... Just some who doeesn't let bad things go down around you and you do the same for that person.

Dear Boboy, Welcome to myLot, you have a very good topic about friends. Will you be my friend? True friends are friends that will be at your side no matter who you are, or who you have become. He will be there in good times and in bad times. He will always be there to give you the support and encouragement that you need to carry on. You will know who are your true friends when you are down, when you have lost everything, or when you have nothing or in trouble. When you have nothing to offer back to them, yet they still help you with unconditional love and care.

A true friend is like a hound that knows whereever you go and are at. He knows your real self. He is your guard and guardian. He is your strength. He is your armor. He is your shield. He is your comfort. He is your refuge. He is that all matters to you. He is always around not because he needs you but he likes you. A true friend loves you not because he is needing you. He needs you because he loves to take care of you.

Hi Boboy2, I want to share to my favorite quote for a best friend. When we honestly ask ourselves which person in our lives mean the most to us, we often find that it is those who, instead of giving advice, solutions, or cures,have chosen rather to share our pain and touch our wounds with a warm and tender hand. The friend who can be silent with us in a moment of despair or confusion, who can stay with us in an hour of grief and bereavement, who can tolerate not knowing, not curing, not healing and face with us the reality of our powerlessness, that is a friend who cares.

hi boboy2, for me a true best friend is your friend dispite your distance, a friend who can comfort you from a far but can be felt in your heart. May not always be there for you, but you know deep in your heart that he/she really cares. You can tell him/her everything or even cry on him if you must. He/she will never judge for whatever you do, but rather tell you the truth even if it means hurting you, for she knows you can handle it. I even believed that your best friend knows you, more than you know yourself. He/she can tell what you feel by just looking at you. He/she knows what you want to say even in silence.

A friend to me is like a sister. That I could lean on, I could talk to and I could cry on her shoulder. Accepts my strengths and my weakness.

If we do not have friends, the world would be bleak. A true friend is when you need a hand ,he held out his hand.Then, a true friend is like an oasis in the desert. we can not have no friends,just one is enough.

A friend in need is a friend indeed. Someone who stay there with you when the deepest time in your life, not avoiding you as they did not afraid of loosing their much of their time giving you special attention in such situation. Someone who encourage you to stand up instead of merely focusing in your mistakes.
