How much real friends you have?

In my definition, best friends are those who even your secrets, real friends are those you find it comfortable to develop meaninggul conversation, and then hi -bye fd which i only know their name or even dun know in some cases. I only have around 10 real friends, i reckon when we get older, it is getting harder to get real friends and you will have more and more hi bye friends.

This is an almost impossible question to answer. I have many many friends and out of the 100s I would say 40 or so are what you might class as real friends, difficult to say exactly though. Of those 40 or so are pals I have known for many years, people I trust to be honest with me, people I would be happy to invite to my home if I had a party, people who I make sure I send birthday wishes to and/or send a card/gift. It's difficult to measure friendship and count how many true friends you have, if you were to ask how many close friends or best friends I have I couldn't even answer that but it would be in the region of a dozen or so. These dozen friends are the ones I can call up at any time of date or night and vice versa without them thinking "I'm tired, why is she calling me so late?" Of these friends are also male friends too, guys I've known through family since childhood, who are as close to me as brothers and who can come to me for advice in all aspects of their lives and vice versa too :)

I have many real friends, who will come to my help in case of difficulty.
