Friends just come and go. True or not?

We encounter phony people everyday. Most likely, most of them call themselves as your friend. Apparently, many of them are often seen when they can benefit something out from you yet they disappear when they're done with you. Partly, I agree to this statement.

I think it still depend on our friend because I have a lot of friends but not all of them stays forever because some of them move to other places and some of them are just busy and some of them act so different now but I still have a friends that until now we are stick together. I have childhood friend that I can call every time that i need someone beside me and we never let each other feel alone.

Yes they do-so you cherish what you shared with them at that time.Majority pf my friends have moves away for one reason or another-and then situations changed.....fortunately-i am not in a situation when i can go see them-and its wonderful..........

I agree with this statement most of people are doing like this.Some friends just came to for their benefit and they go without looking their own fault.A true and real friends will never do such things if they make fault also they will forgive to each other they remain with us forever.........

The True HAS a bigger share In a Given QUestion.But sometimes Friends are hard to find and If You Find real Friends it will remain forever,and that makes the smaller share of Not in this discussion.

I honestly have many more acquaintences than true friends. Friends require great deal of time and commitment that most people don't want to commit to

In my case I'm the one who comes and then go. I was never really in one place when i was young so most friends i had back then i just kinda lost contact with them. Luckily now there's social networking, mobile phone and other ways to communicate not just through snail mail so its all fun. I was able to at least message some of the friends i can still remember the full name in facebook or friendster. Most of them are married and its nice to see them as adult in pictures. Now in regards to the fair weathered friends, I no longer mind if they don't wanna be with me. Its really not my lost. I may not be the warmest person in the world but if you ask for help I will do my best to assist. If you don't contact me its okay. I like being alone anyways.

From my concept i think its because a lot of people are selfish and only care about their own lives and forget about how their friend might be and in doing so end up keeping in touch and lose their friends.......... So pretty much its gonna happen and there people who you can count on its just hard to find them.

Yes is true,they just came for while and go away but they have their on way do in their life so leave it what they do and where they go, is no matter while they left you.We all have our own life and look for life what will happen or what not? Some of them are difficult to depart each other but what to do we will not be always together in life and we should to do our own.We also same as like them because we also left some of friend somewhere to make our-self in depended in life and fulfill dream or desire.Their is no way to blame your friend or yourselves.This is call life.What do you think?

I agree with this statement 110% ,This is very true and it seems that's just the way that people are. I have learned the hard way who my true friends are and the fake ones I no longer have them in my life. Life is too short to waste on people that do not add to the happiness that you already have in your life. I think that people need to learn to treat others the way that they want to be treated.

Some friends come and go but not all. My best friend has been my best friend since 2nd grade when I was eight years old and I am 5 now. My closest high school friend and I went our separate ways because I dated her brother and we broke up. She couldn't accept the fact that she was my closest friend but I also cared about her brother. It went beyond jealousy.

In some cases I think this is 100% true. They are not friends or they have got what they expected and have remaining remained to gain from you. Another, after leaving school, colleges and so on we lost many friends whom we thought in separate before. But the cruel truth lies beneath within always.

I can't say this is right or wrong because there are some friends seen when they are in needed of us and there are some friends who takes and gives too.
