the benefit of friends and to be friend

i consider one as a friend because we get along well, we have a wonderful time together and i consider them friends because we have had several times we shared with each other.

We became friends with someone when we see similarities in each other. We like spending time with friends, having fun. Friends help each other in good as well as bad time. If you find someone is using you, don't help you, ignores you than that's not your friend. You should also judge someone before starting friendship.

I think if you don't like someone you wouldn't be friends and if you wouldn't have anything to gain by doing something, you wouldn't want it in the first place. I don't think it is hidden will, somehow, you make friends to make yourself feel better and not just another person, it just so happened that the feelings are mutual between friendships.
