true friends always hold your hand when ever you need them or not a friend will just hang out with you when you have something they like or have something in common true friend can say the word im here everything will be fine i will never leave you friends can say dont worry you can sort things out. for me true friends is not just come and go experience of life it a life you have and will always be with your life no matter what

A true friend is someone who stand by you, give your advices no matter what you do oe through. A true friend is someone who will always with you to support you. May be you did wrong, he would give you a comment. But finally he will give you a hand to solve the problem. A true friend will never turn his back on you.

Some friends are fake as hell , only when we going through tough time before we can sometimes see a person true nature . I think if we are good to that person , a better chance that , that person will be good to us also. I think most people reach based on how we treat them . And sometimes we treat them bad but they still love us , and you treat them good and they hate you always lol .. Part of the Circle of life .

Not all friendships are meant to last forever. That said, a true friend is one who always shows care and concern for you and is never selfish. Some people put on a good show of friendship, but that is only because they want something. Once their selfish needs are met they don't need you. A true friend doesn't use you. Some people are nice and expect everyone to be like them. The world is full of people who do not know how to be true friends, and they will come and go, but you must first be a true friend to yourself.

If the person will not put you in vain. He or she will be at your side no matter what. The respect and being honest is always the basis for loyalty.

i believe true friends are very rare to find and must have been in all ages. but with the increase of stress more than ever before one needs a friend more than ever. those were different times when people could live in solitude and spend their whole life like that, people still do but generally one needs good friends to get by this life easily. it is said that what one may think to be bad for him is actually good sometimes. this is a philosophy of education that makes life better and easier. today you might not have friends and tomorrow you might get a good friend. a friend in need is a friend indeed, and who is there when one needs anything, more free than the rain in giving and more relaxing than the coolest breeze. for me my THAT FRIEND IS GOD.

I would say the most important thing is when you can talk about your innermost, most private matters with them, and they understand them... sometimes even before you realize what you feel, they know... or help you or you feel they want to help you. That you're not just for fooling around and parties, but when you are in need of a helping hand, they would be the ones to be counted on.

Well I believe you can tell a true friend from a mere acquaintance in times when you're down and broken. When you have nothing left and they're still there to help you. They understand and comfort you even before you ask them.

The value of genuine friendship is a result of better understanding of two or more people. Friendship which is genuine is commonly represented by sympathy and empathy, the tendency to desire what is best for each other. Honesty and mutual understanding helps solidify friendship and helps in the ability to go to each other for emotional support and Enjoyment of each other's company.

if u have a friend who stay with u when you are left alone or when you are in need, them you can say you have got a true friend with you. i have met many people who claim to have best/true friends but still are left helpless and alone when they are in need. some friends get in contact with us only when they need and they often pretend to be busy when we ask them for help. And i do not like such friends :( I hardly have 2-3 true friends..
