Nothin' really serious but just wanna personally hear your views about how to consider your friend a "real" friend or just an ordinary friend.

It is really tough to get a real friend. Infact I have never got a real friend except my parent yet. It is tough but it is not impossible. I think it will take more time to waTCH the real friend for me!!

a real friend for me is one you knows you inside out, knows everything good and bad about you, knows your strenght and your weaknesses, had seen you at your best and your worst but still never leaves you. we all have different priorities and we shouldnt expect friends to totally stick beside us like a shadow coz we'd never grow and become independent. i'd been hanging with the people i consider my friends for the past 8 years. a lot has changed and we are living our own lives now. but we still rush to aid ayone of us that calls for help. growing up made us more indepandent with decisions and actions, we give way to a friend who wants to live his/her own but still stay at a reaching distance in case that friend needs us.

A real friend is someone you can always count on though sometimes they could not be their all the time because of work and some other priorities, they can always give extra time for their friends in need. for me an ordinary friend are someone that you only knew by name and physical looks.

the saying is true "a friend in need is a friend in deed". I have been hanging out with the same group of friends for almost 20 years now. We don't keep in touch much any more but when one needs help the others are sure to rush in.

You get to know whether your friends are real only over a period of time for when you are in need of help, or a shoulder to cry on, they must come forward. There will be many friends who will hang around you if your spend on them and then part ways when you stop doing so. Those who help you in your time of need and stand by you are real friends. They are rare and need to be treasured.

its really hard to spot the fake friends because fake friends are really good actorssssssss....their true nature would be revealed when you have put enough trust onto them and have taken full advantage on you. and when ur in need, they will just leave you alone and pretend that they don't know you. true friends are really hard to find.
