Should we discriminate for choosing friend?

I don't think any discrimination is required... Furthermore, I would say even 'selection' isn't required... Being friends is kind of being in love.. You don't choose your love, do you? One can't select friends... We simply become friends and without even knowing about it we are Best friends... That is how it has been in my life, so far... Friendship is the purest form of relation...

Everyone defines different notion of friendship, but many of us confuse this notion with the simple knowledge. True friends are those who accept us as we are, helps unconditionally, not judge you, you calm when you are heavier and I could go on ... The point here is to find compatible friends with us both psychologically and emotionally and I think it knows that the respect, loyalty and equality are the ones coming up a friendship. Personally I can not say someone is my friend when we reunited after years, someone with whom you shared a few things unimportant and that someday. Reunion with the "friend" took place precisely when I was going through a bad period of my life, but his intention was to help me, but things were complicated by being charged, sued by others for me to intervene where it can not be. For some, misunderstood part of things is that if ever a true friend or an acquaintance just wanted to help me was of your own. I never turned to friends, on the contrary, they were the ones who own initiative supported me, encouraged me, I understood, I have cherished, I told the truth when it was necessary to I hear and more, but I never called them even when there was the problem more personal situations. I recognize that many of those who know me have the courage, good intention to "act" for me when I expected and not everybody got what he wanted here, things were happening around me that I did not know and finally everything was just stupid to me. And here's another story ... .. Beautiful part is that we can elect new friends ... we have the power to choose, as social beings we need people around us, but true happiness lies not in the multitude of friends, but in their value.

My opinion that too many people use the term friend too loosely. In my definition of friend saibal is that it should not have conditions. When we say he/she is like this or that they are already putting conditions My true definition of friends is true friendships do not have conditions so no we should not look for reason why or why not to friend. Personally I don't select friends I allow the friend relationships to happen. Choosing means that I am being selective, discriminative and or conditional so I believe in my mind I know what it entails to have friends.

hi, i am a friendly person,and i have a lot of friends,and i dont mind if she or he,i will look for his/her attitude and his/her face. i actually hate those people who discriminate for choosing there friend.the important is the attitude of that person.

You are a friend to all. If someone is a friend to you, they will be a friend to you. I think of our best friend & brother, Lord Jesus Christ, who sends us each on a mission (fulfilling our individual roles in the great mission 'to make all disciples' of The Way, The Truth & The Light). Don't worry about your friends (except to help them as you see them seeking to fulfill their parts of the great mission); just focus on your mission, and if they are your friends then their mission will be the same. That was a problem I had; my pseudo-Christian friends couldn't understand my role in the great mission, and so kicked-me-out of their little hypocrisy-groups. The mistake I made was 'worrying about continuing with them'; I should've let them go to H-- wherever I know they're headed.

I think we do have to be selective in choosing friends, but not based on gender, rich-poor, nationality, or religious affiliation. It's called discrimination! We should be selective in choosing a friend, with based on good or bad character and habits of a person. So, find as many friends as possible...It's will be better for us!
