i have plenty of people to socialize with, but very few I can trust. Actually, probably like zero.

In my 28 years of existence here on earth, I've seen and met people with whom I also made friends with. I have travelled around Philippines, established friendship on locales where I visit places. Most of them I becamse friends with, but I don't consider them as that CLOSE to be really called as friend. But I have found out that some of the people which are living close by were the one's that are just there when they need your help, because of your popularity and also because of how you treat them. Most of them are nowhere to be found when I need them, so I stopped seeing them and completely cut communications or relationships with. My childhood friends are the one's I consider as REAL friends, they are always there to accompany me, though thick and thin. We treat one another equally, as our group grew more and more with those who are envied by how much we value each other.

It may sound a little too much,but I trully have five best friends.They're all girls and I've known them for 14 years.We've growned up together and we know quite a lot details about each other.There's not a day in which I don't receive scrap of news from them. We do our best to keep in touch.Two of them as a matter of fact are my cousins - one is in my class,the other one is in the upper in the same school,but still at our age.Another girl from my top 5 is again sudying in the same school as us.She's in a parallel class and she used to be with me from first grade.The fourth girl was in my class again from first grade,but now we're sepparated.And the last one is studying somewhere else,but she's my neighbour,so we have trace. I'm really happy with them,because I've trusted them during all of these years and I know they'll be always by side.

Hello there. I have many friends. Some are from work, some are from my schooling days and the rest are known through friends. Most of my good friends are from my schooling days. I do trust my good friends. As for those friends whom I am not so close to, I have reservations. I've been betrayed by a few friends (close and not so close ones) before. This makes me more prudent when it comes to giving my trust to people. I am a private person. I do not usually share my problems with fiends (not even my good friends). This is because, I do not wish to burden them with my problems because they do have their problems too. On the other hand, if my friends want a listening ear, I gladly offer mine.

I do have a lot of acquaintances but I only have a very few friends. I am a very picky person when it comes to choosing my friends. I am an approachable person but I don't trust anybody. I am so choosy when it comes to friends because I believe in the saying that "a person is known by the kind of companions he keeps". So, as much as possible, I really pick the best people to be my friend. They need not to be popular or wealthy. What I look into a friend is someone who can be trusted in any sense. And I'm proud to say that I have found some true friends in my life. They are the ones who are always there for me through the ups and downs of my life. And in return, I am also wiling to help them in any way that I can.

I have several people who are dear to my heart that I call a friend. Two in particular who are close and know quite a bit about me. I am not a very trusting person as I've been burned so many times so I tend to chose my friends carefully.

I talk to all, but make very less friends and I don't like sharing secrets with anybody. When I was young I had few close friends with whom I used to share secrets and now I share all secrets with my daughter who is my best friend.
