How much can you trust your friend?

Everyone wants a true friend, someone he or she can really trust, someone who he or she can truly depend on in the time of need,. But not everyone can be trusted in the same way. Some friends can be trusted with your deepest secrets. At the same time some friends can only be trusted from a distance. I know that sounds kind of awkward. I have even thought about the friends who are only your friends when they need help from you. They never seem to have time to offer an encouraging word. How about those friends who have hurt you in one way or another? Can they really be trusted again? I guess that depends on the nature of the offense. I just want to know if you have a friend, how much can you truly trust your friend? Is that friendship even worth holding onto. Why or Why not?

I love having friends. It is nice to have someone that can relate to you, and they can understand what you may be going through in that time of life. All of my friends that were my best friends have stabbed me in the back before. I barely trust anyone period in my life. It is just sad that it is that way.

Well trusting a friend is equally important and best of all is not to expect anything i frienship and that will take your trust .

I have learnt from experience you can not trust anyone 100%, just because you feel trust towards someone I know it is not necessarily so... Human nature has a survival thing that is in us all and whether we want to admit it or not when we want something we go after it and make excuses to make it right..I used to be a very trusting person maybe I trusted may too much but I learnt the hard way...

I want to say is, in addition to your parents thinlk that other people do not trust the so-called real, and maybe you to him/her that your good, they may be back to you in your rumors, and now social, is horrible. Anything, only to judge for our own mistakes, relate to some of the things that we are truly secret, or let out the good, of course, likely to trust a friend to discuss the issue. Only the most worthy of their trust.
