There really have been a lot of people who have popped in and out of my life at various times. Friends do come and friends do go. However, I think that they have some kind of affect right in my life. There are just many friends that have really had a positive impact. And many people who I thought might have been friends, but they have not had quite the right impact.
There are just times where I have friends that bring a smile right to my face. That allow me just some room to breath. Just give me that hand when I need it. Not that I need to ask for it, but they will be there to offer. That is a positive affect, that have inspired me, that have really allowed me to move forth right in my life for sure.

Hello Yingtang
I have a friend from Elementary days (school days) whom I still have communication with up to now. Her name is Ella. I could not say that she affect me because we are totally opposite in personality but I could say that we are both there for each other especially at times when need help. I am glad and I am blessed to have found a friend like her.
I also have another friend, her name is Peewee sensei. She is a Japanese language teacher and she has been with me at times when I really needed a friend. She is a person whom I could say affects me. I like her ways so I tend to copy her sometimes. She is a good influence

Nice question, If we look behind to our school days friends, then collage days friends, then before marriage friends, then after marriage friends , pen-friends, friends at work place and now on-line friends. In each case there was always a best friend, but with time and circumstance we had to leave them and move forward in our life, though some memories are still with us.
Right now we have some good friends and some of them very close, but with time you don't know who will remain with you and who will not. So I think there is not such a think like friends forever, but yes we surely are obliged to those true friends who helped us in our bad times and separation from such good friends will surely affect me a lot.Friends are very important in life. Without friends we can miss lot of fun in life.Friends are like angels.

hello,
Yeah, I have a lot of friends which makes me happy whenever I am in school or at home. But of course my best friend is different from the others she really the one I love the most. I can say that I have her since high school but though we live in different place and we go in different path we still communicate. Thank God there is a lot of things available in the internet.

I have also lots of friend before marriage but now my friends are only my child and my husband. I dont want to make friends forever because now friends are selfish.

Only at the moment I die I can tell you if I have a friend forever.
At this moment I only can say I am my own best friend. Probably after that my kids are. Although I think if it comes to counting on someone it's me again.
There is a television programm over here it's called: I am sorry. The programm maker is going over to the place of someone with a bunch of flowers. That person has to guess who is sending it.. it's someone they have a fight with (mostly already years ago after years and years of friendship). Kind of funny since many people don't even guess the name of that person. So after the fight they continued their life and only the other part seems to struggle with the fight and break up that once have been.
I always wonder why you have to send a stranger to your former best friend, why not going over with that bunch of flowers yourself if you are really sorry and miss your friend?

I haven't experienced a friendship sincere enough to exist for ever. All throughout my life there are a lot of friends for me. But after sometimes of our contact some problems occur and I withdraw slowly feeling something wrong so that no friends have turned enemies of me. To me, it is a fact that the love and help given by me to friends haven't returned by them to the same limit.

I have friends that have been with me for the longest time, and they have been nice to be with. I'm not sure if they will be their forever, but I will make sure as much as I can to keep them for the longest time possible. Have a nice day :)
