Having friends on mylot is great as long as everything is going fine. But what if your friend needed you.? Would you stand up and fight for them. Would you risk everything to help them? (ok Im talking about friends on the net) Would you stand behind them no matter what it cost you? True friends do that for each other. I have some good friends here, but honestly would you help me if i needed help?? I might call on you someday. Would you be ready?? I am loyal to my friends. Each one is precious o me. As long as they are loyal to me. I promise you my friends if you ever needed me I would be there for you. I would do whatever I could to help.

I've got some great friends, but I really cannot count anyone from Mylot in that category. Part of it is simply the fact that I've not been around on this particular system very long. The other is that it does not seem as conducive to me to really foster a friendship as something more real time and less topic driven. MyLot reminds me more like speed dating meets debate class.

I wouldn't go out on a limb to people that are basically strangers. I think internet "friend" are in a different category than friends that I have had since grade school. On the other hand, I would give "online" help in any way I could.

If you feel that I can be of assistance in any way, call me, holler up, ring my bell and tell me about it. Then I will take a look at the situation. If I feel that I can be of help, I will step up to bat for you. I would stand beside you. If I feel that I can not be of help to you, I will let you know straight up. I will always give you my honest opinion of the situation. I suppose it really depends on the situation that you are facing.

Thanks for giving your honest opinion. Sometimes people need help but they cant really prove anything except they just ask their friends to help them in certain ways. But if you were close to me and i told you I needed help you would know i needed help

I believe that in absolutely every conflict both sides are right, at least from their point of view. There are pro's and con's, and which side you take as somebody not directly involved in it will always depend on your emotional point of view. That's why I always take the side of a friend, even though, looking at the conflict logically and rationally, I might at least understand or even agree with the other side. But if you don't do that, what are friends for?

I always do whatever I can for my friends... Weather it be there to type out fighting words for them when someone has been doing mean things to them or just there to listen. I am always there for them and do the best things I can to try and help them out. I love my friends, weather they be in real life or the net, and I don't want to see them sad or hurting in any form.

friends are people that do all those things, internet friends are not friends, they are acquaintances, they are like penpals, they are like the people you meet in your neighbourhood, they say hi to you, you may chat for awhile and then you both go on to do other things, that is not a friend, that is a pal, a neighbour etc. If somebody I know on the net gets arrested in India what can I do about it? similarly if my neighbour got arrested what can I do about it? people use the term friends way too loosely, not everyone you know is a friend. A friend is very special, it is the high caliber of social relationships, having said that yes I do have real friends on the internet, they have helped me out and I hope I have helped them out too, but they are like gold, they are precious and oh so rare to find.

Despite the fact that I am an "armchair activist", I tend to be very shy and want to stay in the background. However, if I felt someone was being treated unfairly I would stick up for them in a minute.

For friends everything is possible. If your friend care for you then i can go to any extent in helping, no thinking, no bias, jst help him out of the cause. But you know, in this fast era, there is hard to find decent friend, who can do anything for you. its simple to write but not easy to do in practical life. if imagine, you are among my best-best friends and you call me on someday on odd hours for any cause, you will find me stood with u. you are every rite to verify this. The only condition from this side is you should also loyal to this friend, gives asmuch care i do for you, asmuch respect as igive you and to your family. because now i believe give to those who really know the value of, what they are receiving.

I would do anything in the world for a friend but i don't have any. i have tried so many times to have friends and it never works out. They act like they like me but down the road they use me and toss me to the side. I would not know how to act to truly have a friend.

Of course I would be there for you sweet snow - you are my twin sister after all! lol I would stand up for my friends in any way I could although I don't think we need to get aggressive to do so, sometimes the best thing to do is to advise them as well as ourselves to walk away, but I am always loyal! xxx

I too am a loyal friend- as long as the friend I am defending is honest- and did nothing that I would not defend them for- so I guess what I’m saying is if I thought the friend was right- and didn’t do anything wrong- I would defend them- That is what friends are for- But if you ask me to break into some website and steal money- You’re outta your mind- lol

I'd like to think I could be loyal to my friends but I would not expect them to back me up if the cost was too high. Like if I was banned or something, I wouldn't expect my friends to all leave as well. I would hope they would stay being my friends. It's hard to imagine a scenario like this. My biggest wish is to be able to get to know the real people, not just the typing and name on the page. If you called on me for help, I don't know what I'd be able to do to help you. But I'd like to do whatever I could.

Hello snow. We're both of the same league. I am always a reliable and dependable bunny. I have friends on the net who can testify on my willingness to help and support them. Truth to tell, I am the one who is having difficulty trusting anyone here. Sure, we can all be friends but as to how far can we extend the friendships will all depend on both party.

I'm a loyal friend too and I always help my friends in the best way I can.But when it comes to a situation where in I knew that they putting their selves into trouble then ofcourse I will not tolerate their wrong doings.I should be there for them to say stop and change their way.That's what I also expect from my friends too.I want them to be there for me not only if I'm on the right track but I wish they're also there if I'm out of my mind and doing crazy that will destroy my life.
