Often elder people advice me, ' be careful while selecting your friends'. But, I had never selected my friend, keeping their whereabouts in mind. Friendship just happens between someone who get closer with us. Do you select your friends of it just happens, for someone to be you friend? If you select your friend, how do you select them?

I do have a lot of friends . I am in 5 groups many close friends and uncountable 'Just friends ' . What i have learned is we cant decide if a person is good or bad , because i have never met anyone bad at heart and no one is . Staying with them listening to them and understanding them would help you know their features and if you find one having features like you , you become his good friend because its our animal instinct which makes deer to live with deers and rabbits to stay with rabbits . Opening conversation is also easy , smile while talking and rest is a pie . Good luck and happy hunting friends

I wasn't careful at picking my friends during high school, they were a bad influence over me. Now, in college, I am a lot more careful of selecting good friends rather than just anyone.
