a true friend will be patient towards their friend, and will do all in their power to try and console their friend, and keep peace with them. sometimes a friend may not really be a friend though! sometimes we just have close associates, but the moment one does something their "friend" doesnt like, that friend takes offense, and starts to treat them as an enemy. the real question is..what is a friend? a friend will never do their friend wrong. a friend wont become angry with a friend over such a small matter. a friend will try to work everything out with their friend, and wont let even one day pass them by if there is a misunderstanding between one another. as said though=the reality is...who is really a friend? most people are only close associates...but if they dont get what they want from you they will treat you like an enemy and be the opposite of how they were towards you before. so it is important to know what friendship really is..before one can call anyone a friend.

I think debating with them is one of the benefits of having friends they sharpen your mind, I argue with my friends a lot! We mainly disagree at many things and sometimes shout at the top of our lungs to be heard....but, at the end, we share a good laugh at our idiosyncrasies...we know each other and no matter how heated our debate may be, we basically know that those issues we are arguing about are nothing compared to our friendship...

We should be able to talk about anything with a friend. they are the ones we lean on in good times and bad ones too. We can't just let the good things be the only things we share with friends. The pain and sorrow has to be shared too.

Well hyden I Think some friends are very arguing one's they won't satisfied and listen until they Win in the Talk.I have also one that kind of friend who is a Mylotter too.Maybe He see's this Comment but thats True.I Generally Acts like Convince with him when such kind of Talking War starts through this He also Satisfies and his Agressiveness also gets Quiet.Moreover I Feel Happy If my Friends are Happy even if I lose with him I won't feel Bad as He Wins its like my Win!
