Do you believe in BFF (best friends forever)?

I agree with you!We are different individuals,have our own personal development journeys and lives.We grow,and we change,in different directions.We may think of each other suddenly someday,but there seems to be something mysterious between the friendship preventing us from connection.So i also don't believe in BFF. But,by the way,what does "BFF" really mean,what's the original idea of this definition?

Hi friends, I have had a best friend for over 20 years. I am 49 now. We have been through thick and thin. We have had our children together. However, my best friend is dying right now. She is in Stage 4 Cancer. That is the last stage. I have never faced anything harder than this in my life. I know she is going away forever. I am with her every day. I love her with all my heart and I really don't know what I'm going to do without her. I cry every time I leave her. I can't help it. If anyone has any suggestions on how better to deal with this fact that in a few months, she will be gone from my life forever. I try very hard to have a faith of some kind, but times like this with a woman of only 44 years will be taken from this earth, I can't make heads nor tails of it. So if you have a best friend, please don't let the pettiness get in between your friendship. Always remember we are not here forever. Love your friend and always treat each other with respect and love. Cheryl

My best friend lives states away from me. We talk on the phone an she visits my home town. I will be visiting her next year. Life happens and we move on and we still remain best friends. We can't expect people to stay one placefor life. If you ever find that one true best frien you will feel differently. I don't have to be in the same state for us to remain best friends. Face book keeps these relationship alive as well.

I have two BFFs who have been friends for over forty years. At a time when I desperately needed friends and financial support, both came through. One came to stay with us in the middle of our worst snow storm last winter. The other helped me get guardianship over my husband who is now totally disabled and she helped to repair our old handicapped van. These two people could ask for my life in return, and I really wouldn't think twice about giving it to them. We are always there for each other when relatives and other 'close' friends turn their backs. So, yes, there are BFF's forever. I have two of the best in the world.

I don't believe in best friends forever saying because I had my best friend before when I was in high school but what she did was just to betrayed me. I never did anything wrong to her. Most likely its because of her standing now in life. She's saying she is already rich and that my mother is just a maid. I pity her because of her attitude. I don't consider her as an enemy.. I consider her as one of those people who are not contented with their life.

I believe in BFF (consider the word forever)..I have wonderful BFFs. I have one that I've known for 15 years now, we are friends since Nursery days, we got lot of memories growing up together. There's two girls that I've known for 12 years now, and another two girls for 8 years now. I love them and they are the most wonderful BFFs I ever had. We may now have different lives, different careers, and we may not see each other for a long period of time but thanks to technology we're able to get in touch all the time. Updates always shared and communication always open. We tell 'i love you' to each other and never to betray. We may be far now by distance but we are always close by heart. And last we treat each other like we are biological sisters. ^.^

I agree with you, there is no such thing as best friends forever. I had a best friend couple of years ago, and she moved out. For a while she and I both talked to each other over the phone, but than she stopped calling me, and she moved again somewhere that's how I lost her contact number, but she still knew mine. But she never bothered to call again. That was one. The other one I met 3 years ago, we became really good friends, and from good friends to best friends. After that she moved out as well. But we used to visit each other, were there for each other whenever we needed each other. We shared everything to each other. And recently she got married and she just stop calling me now. We don't talk a lot anymore now. So, I don't think there is such thing as BFF. I think it only lasts during middle and high school years.

I absolutely DO believe in BFF's... In fact, I have one! We have been friends for over 12 years now... she is 2 years younger than me... We can tell each other anything and everything and know it's safe between just me & her. I am there for her anytime she needs me & she's there for me anytime I need her. We've had a time where we didn't really see each other often, but we kept in contact with emails. Now, we contact each other practically EVERY day... either by email, text, or a visit to my house or her house or a 'date'... We've had our ups and downs with each other and basically came down to the conclusion that neither one of us can get rid of the other ;-) So, I'm CERTAIN that 40 or 50 years down the road, we're still gonna be BFF's! (but, I'm sure by then, the times will change and we'll have different names for each other)

if we believe in something then we can make it happen. i believe that best friends forever. maybe not in physically but mentally. i have a friend while college, she is the best friend i ever had. now, we are apart. She live in different city with me. but my memory of her still lingering on. and i hope we can see each other again

Hiya JKSophie, Wish there was a best friends forever. I have lost a few through no fault of my own more than the distance I live at from them. Others were separated from me when I was much smaller and over that you have no control. Was unable to get back to see them because I had to start working early straight from School at 15 so I would like that to be forever yes. Maybe they don´t want to know me because I was unable to find them after it was impossible for me to locate them. I don´t where they all went. Because I live here it´s much harder to communicate with People from your Birthland too so I sometimes wish it was Best Friends Forever. I know it cannot be so like that but all the same I wish it was.

I don't have just one "best friend". I have a small group of very close friends. Even though we are all busy and our lives are all going in different directions, I know that they will always be there for me when I need them.

Ya you are saying the right thing no one live for ever, and non of my friend will stay by my side for ever.Everyone has their own life to deal with.But I still believe in BFF its didn't mean that i will be there for you forever, but it means that I will be there forever not by physically but in my heart..........

If you haven't mentioned excluding the family members.., I would have answered that my sisters are my BFF.. they're the closest person I could imagine next to myself.., But I used to have a best friend.., we were classmates since kindergarten until we graduated high school and we were neighbors too..., But when we went to different Colleges.., and we kind of lost contact.., but since we were neighbors.., we get to hang out once in a while.., and I consider her as my BFF despite her absence in most part of present lives..=)

I believe true friendship.I have a best friend,we keep connect with each other all the time.Though we are living in the difficult city now,we used to chat in phone for hours to talk.The content including study,living,family and so on.If one of us has trouble in doing something,the other will make full of effort to help him,not only by substance,but also have spirit encourage.Friendship need understanding and honesty,I think so.

I have a few friends that i have known lots of years and these are the friends that i see at least three or four times a week,some are old school friends,other friends are people that i met more by chance over the years.I would never say a friend would be a friend of mine forever as we all lead busy lives aswell as we have lots of family that also keeps us busy.

Yes I do. It is how you treat each other. Respect is very important in this relationship.

Maybe it's not forever. But I believe in a friendship that last. I was able to maintain a friendship for 20 years.

Our friendship has been 10 years. I know him when we started college entrance. At first I did not really like him a bit at all, but do not know why until now we are best friends of each other. we always help each other everything in life. Of course, we will inevitably disagree at times, the battle heated argument. But then everything is back as the capital because we are together, but your best. Our friendship has been tested and I and he will preserve and build on it forever after. I do not agree with you. It is true that you do not live forever, just like all of us who do not live at all, but love is alive my friend.

In the past I had believed in BFF but now I'm thinking different.As you said that everybody had their own life:) and thier way to go,may be they can go together with our a period of time...
