Do you have a best friend?

I think a lot of people throw around the word "best friend" a lot, especially younger people. I mean, when you think about it, if you call someone your best friend, you're clearly saying that you enjoy them more than anyone else. I'm not saying that I feel equally happy about all my friends but I don't have a best friend. Do you?

The term best friend really has been thrown around a bit too loosely for my liking. It is a term where many people have tended to use more often. Heck, even the term "friend" can be diluted in a sense to say the very least, when people tend to use the word in many ways when they really do mean people that they just merely get along with, who are acquaintances at the very best and the very most. And the term best friend just seems a bit too unfair. That is saying like all of the other people who are your friends are of lesser quality which is one of the most unfair distinctions right out there. Yeah, its kind of easy to really see why that might lead to some harsh and hurt feelings with many people. So I have many friends, all friends are good, all acquaintances can be a joy to talk to, but no such thing as a best friend.

I have several people that I would call "dearest friends". I could not say which one of them is my very best friend as they all mean something different for me. All of them have been with me for many years so they are all very much loved by me.

My daughters are my best friends, after that 2 other women I share a lot with, we help out each other, but still would not call my best friend.

yes i do, i have one on line best friend who i have been friends with for about 8 years, we are always in contact, she's wonderful and i trust her with my life, i also have another best friend who isn't on line and i have known her since i was 3 years old, we do everything together and i also trust her with my life, other people are friends but i wouldn't trust them as much as i trust the 2 mentioned, i have been hurt in the past by people who "think" they are my friends and i have put my trust in them only to be let down, so the 2 i have are the only people i will ever trust

Hi dear, having a best friend around would make your life much meaningful and colorful. He is your friend who is always around. Your best pal and partner. You have a lot in common. You share different views and opinion, And you time with him is just so enjoyable and fun. That's for me is what best friend means.
