[b]well it so quite easy question you ever got and tough too cause some time it happen that you dont even recognise a person that he/she is your friend or not... many of you will think right after this question that i have 4,5,6........... etc fiend i have but think deeply.. is they really your friends or just a crowd if you say that a friend is what that helping you than i will say sorry my friend thats not true according to me i think friend is what who will understand you and he must do that thing efore you say...

Let's see I have many friends but I those aren't true friends so I say true friends 2 total that I can rely, converse with and help me out in a bad situation. It's hard to find true friends anymore for some are just out to get things from you and take advantage of a good thing. Great discussion. Have a great day.

Hello rowdyrace this is checkmail and have many firends bothe offline and online, means in real life and virtual life.Well the main pro is to maintain an contact with them, as todays life is full of busy things.Yeah could have around 20-30 friends but only could attend hardly 5-9 friends at a time rest are busy.So its the time and proffession that keeps us away from our friends.Any way have a lot of friends.And a true friend is the one who likes the faith, which is always good fo our life.

Hi, I would say I have 3 best friends, and all of them are girls, we are roommates in college for four years, we share everything with each other, and we talk everything, almost played together for 4 years, really have a lot of fun, though we are in different cities now, but we still have good relationship, we often call each other, and care about each other.

i known what you mean.acturally,i do have a few real and true friends whom i call brothers.i think we do need someone that we can share something special with.yeah,we can talk to everyone if we like,but could not tell them everything.so ,the real friends are someone you can trust and can look for when you need some advices or help.

Yeah, I always divide my friends into 3 groups (or you can say I have three kinds of friends. I don't tell this to them =P), one that are the people I'd like to be with at school, like during class time, they're active and always willing to answer questions. Another is people I know, because sometimes I don't quite talk to people that are really quiet or shy, or just maybe I don't have topics with them, but they are my friends, you know, more than classmates =). Last group is my BEST BEST friends~~ really really good friends, we hang out together, we do whatever we can together, we don't talk much, we don't have to have same classes but we're still really tight to each other.=) Real friends, not just people who are really close to you, they KNOW you, they know what you're thinking, know what you like, what you don't like. And they're always there to catch you when you fall.

It doesn't matter for me if I only have 5 friends because I know that they are those people whose been with me through thick & thin. I also have a lot of acquintances but the one I considered True friends is what I treasured the most.

I have a number of friends but there are only a handful of them that I consider to be close to me or "best friends". It's not really about the quantity of friends I look at. Sure, I can be friends with a lot of people, but I only pick a select few to be good friends with.

It depends on the definition of the friend you mean. If the friend you mean includes those whom you play with, eat with or talk with, I could say that I have a lot of friends. If you limit the definition to those whom you share your opinions and feelings with, the answer is obviously different. In my view, only those you could share your feelings with could be defined as real friend. It's not easy to have a real friend. If you are luck enough to have one, you'd better cherish him or her and preserve this friendship very carefully.

I have few real friends. Friends that I really considered "friends". I really choose my friends. I know lots of people, I talk and share things with them but only few I considered friends.

Hello, I would say 3 freinds and one is guy. A friend is a perosn you can tell anything about whether it is bad or not and they just listen and help give advice whether you listen to or not. If you do not listen they are still there for you to talk to and relate with. I think it not quanity as quality of the friend and if you dsicuss or debate a topic and get into a fight that you come back to that freind and agree to disagree and be back to being a friend again. They support you in everything you do and warn you if they see you may get into trouble over soemthing etc... Thanks and have a great day Sincerely Unique16

I have three close, true friends. They are my strength, they are the ones who listen when I have a problem, who distract me when I'm sad, who help me out when I'm in need. And those are the friends I would do anything for. As for other friends, I say I have four or five. These are people who are fun to hang out with once and a while, but it really doesn't go beyond that. I've been in situations where I thought I had a close friend and was wrong. Best thing to do is pick up and keep searching for your ideal friends - friends who could turn into close, true friends.
