'Friends' or a 'best friend' !!!!!

I know a lot of people. Some of them are just acquaintances and others are friends. I don't have a 'best friend' but among my friends are those with whom I am on the same wavelength and we seem to be able to read each others thoughts. That makes our friendship more complex but not necessarily 'better'. If we are going to classify our friends then asmong them would be those that we could classify as 'user friendly' too? Those whom we can always ask a favour and know that they will fall at our feet just to be able to remain frineds? No, that is not what friendship means to me

i would rather go for friends than best friend.

In my opinion, "classify" is not the proper word to be used for friends. I'd rather say that degree of friendship varies between friends. I, like most of the persons, always like to celebrate my happiness with all of my friends. but when it comes to discussing my problems, the friend circle becomes smaller. and if the problems are very very serious (like something related to family or other things of that sort), the circle becomes restricted to 2 or 3 friends only. so in my view, it doesn't mean that the friends are not equal, but one can't share everything with everyone

Well friends are best!

I friend is someone doesn't tell you to do bad things.

Since childhood we tend to place everyone we know into the category of friend and as a result confuse the level of our "friend's" influence in our lives. But after experiencing true friendship, one begins to realize that there is indeed a difference among the level of friendship that exists in our so called friends. The love of true friendship is a very powerful and sacred bond that many of us rarely experience in our lifetime. I have had 4 people throughout my entire lifetime that have met the criteria that I have established to be true friends. One of them is gone today. The other 3 I know are true friends because I know that i can always count on them when I need a friend, and that I know have genuine love for the friendship we share. I consider myself very lucky to have them. Many of the people that we label friends if we think about it, can fall under other categories besides friends. Acquaintences, cohorts, peers, and neighbors to name a few. I don't classify my friends anymore. I believe because I have experienced true friendship.

I personally have a lot of friends and one best friend My husband. He is my rock and the love of my life. Not only is he my lover he is my best friend and partner. I remember when I made out my wedding invitations I had this wriiten: Today I married my best friend, the one I love, share, the one who gives me hope. I have this hanging over our bed and every night before my husband and I go to bed we read it. My husband is a great man and I do not know what I would do without him.

I am fully agree with you, thanks for your comments & sharing.

I am fully agree with you, thanys for your comments & sharing.

'Friends' will share only all enjoyments with us , but a 'best friend'will share our sorrows and supportive to withstand or help on the bad occasions .

We cannot treat every friends as same. Somebody might be close to our heart. Someone will be our favourite person but not close to heart. To someone we feel comfortable. So i always classify friends and treat them the way they're to me.

It is better to have friends rather then having best friend. I have lots of friend but i don't have any best friend as such.
