How do you define a real friend?

A good friend will come bail you out of jail, but a REAL friend will be sitting next to you saying, "Damn, that was fun!" Always been one of my favorite quotes, and true, too!

A real friend is someone whom you can tell anything about anything and they will not judge you or think of you differently.

That is a hard one. I lately discussed it with a daughter when we call someone a real friend. I am close with a mother of a girl who is in the same class as my daughter. She has a rough time at the moment, we share a lot (if not everything) still I don't know when the moment will come I will call her my best friend. Perhaps it has to do with the fact we do know eachother for longer but not long enough? Perhaps we both have other friends as well? We talk, see, visit, share, discuss, daily, take care of eachother's kids but still. My daughter agreed it's kind of weird perhaps even sad we don't use the word friend or even true friend that easily. But I do believe that if someone deserves that title (untill now) she is.

I would say that you have the correct idea about friends.

A real friend is someone who will never leave you no matter what. Someone that will help you in times of needs and will not judge you in all the craziness your doing. A friend that will last for years, and someone whom you can talk about everything.
