I felt so happy this weekend, I went to a National Marriage Encounter, I just saw people I haven´t seen many time ago. When you find real friendship you can trust people. You feel so happy when you see him/her. You feel very happy for him/her. Their success is your success, and your success is their success. They laugh with you, and cry with you. Isn`t it? Real friendship stays on the heart as a twinkle of a star. Beside true friendship there is people that is looking for my ruin, I think. I play music in a church, and I feel that many women look me with envy. I have one true friend, I feel so happy with her friendship. It´s a true friend. I have trust her intimate secrets. And she has never disappointed me. I feel she is like a tender flame near me. I can´t trust people that make themselves call my friends, but they treat me as waste. I was going to say as a dog, but many dogs have love and care. They never look at me, they never say hello, they have no interest in my life. And what is worse, they are rude and cruel. This is no friendship. But they feel well calling friendship to this weird behavior, this is no fair! That is called interest. Have you experienced true friendship? Have you experienced false friendship? (By the way: I married my best friend, he was my bestfriend for 10 years)

Sounds really cool. I'm happy for everyone that has that experience. For me, friendship is a dirty cuss word. I have no friends, and need no friends. Every person I dared to call "friend" has done nothing but hurt me, and cause me pain. I'll never trust another person again for the rest of my life. It's just not worth it. But it's wonderful it worked out for you. It does for most people I know.

That's awesome! I'm glad you were able to make it through the pain somehow! I agree with you too. Most people can't live in a shell. Most need to have others in their life. G-d must have blessed you greatly to get where you are! I personally like my shell. I have decorations, and I painted it a nice shade of blue. Have some nice carpet. I'm perfectly happy in my nice shell! LOL Best to you Dainy :)

awwww that is so sweet you and your best friend ended up marrying each other. that is really a sweet story. i got friends, really good friends, but it sucks that they are all so far away from me now. some are abroad and some i still have to travel 2 hours to see them and most often they are also busy. i had some fake friends too. i am so nice to them but since we were apart because of college etc.. they found new friends and even if i tried to communicate with them a lot of times, no replies etc. so i dont consider them friends anymore, i deleted them from my life lol and also i had a friend who is like a snake, i mean she is nice but whoever person i like in high school, she ended up liking them too and flirt with them and sometimes call them etc without me knowing. but that was high school, those are just crushes. my boyfriend right now is my first boyfriend, we have been together for 8 years now

Cherish!! What nice for you too and your boyfriend!! My husband was my first boyfriend too. Let me explain it better. I was 13 and he was 15, we were "couple" for 6 months (we were kids), then we ended, and stay just like friends, just friends for 10 years, real friends. And then we began dating, we got engaged and then married. . It happens similar to me with my old friends, some are abroad, and we moved to another city, too. But I think that distance can show you who remains as a friend. That kind of friendship is true friendship. Even in they are busy, you know that if you have to talk with someone you just can pick the phone and they are there. What happened to you in the college is very common. They just are girls without a self personality, that just like what you want. Isn´t it? I hated that too. Blessings for you both!...

true friends are hard to find,they come once in a blue moon..i had this experience that some of my friends are remembering me when they just need something from me and when i need them,they're gone.why there are people like that? but i have this one friend that always there for me,she always gives me an advice whenever i have problem in my lovelife or in my family..she's a shoulder to lean on..

well after reading the head line of the discussion ,I'd recalled by best friend whose name is samy.he has being my friend since childhood. we used to play basketball,football,hockey together and we had lots of fights daily but at the end of the we were together no matter how big the fight goes we both knew that we can't stay away for longer so does he. well now we don live in the same city,I'am out for work,as i m building a web site www.noisyox.com in which events are published and people can organize one through us. he is happy with my work he calls me frequently and he is a so prolix . i miss the hang out we used to do we still do when i m back to my city off from work. well he has always supported me in my bad time ,when now one was there standing with me in my decision .he stood by me and made things so much easier for me.! I so love him as a friend he is a blessing in my life.!

Mannu this is so sweet!! You recalled my childhood friends. I´m so glad for you both. We cannot walk alone through life. We are social beings. Made though to socialize. Even if we have been hurt someday, we are called to live in community. When you have standing by and supporting you in bad times they become a great relief, and we feel true friendship. After writting this discussion, I went through a big problem with a guy. I felt sad, anxious and in crisis, so I thought in two friends, immediately. I can tell you both of them are my best friends. Why? Because I can trust each one of them things that I could not trust everybody. Even things that I can´t trust to my mother or my brother. I phoned the first. She is grandma of 6 children, she elder than me for almost 15 years, we are together in a church ministry. It was 10 o`clok late night. I asked to talk to her at that time. And she received me in her home from 10 to 11 o`clock. She heard at me. She let me talk as much as I needed, and after hearing my problem she gave me an advice. She told me she loved me and was worried about me, so she gave me her best advice without judging me. Later on the next morning, after taking children to school, I phoned my second friend. Whom I met in my 14th birthday, she knows everthing about me, and my past. Even I had a dairy wich I used to borrow her. We were like soulmates when we were teen. She is older than me for 5 years, she has been in wheelchair since two years before I met her. She knows every corner of my soul. So I phoned her to another country where she lives now. She told me if I wanted her to phone me back because it was an international call. I denied, of course. We talked by phone almost for an hour. I told her every single detail of my problem. She heard me without complain. And recalling our life together she gave me her best advice. Yesterday evening, I was feeling my heart plain of love and hapiness, and I knew it was because I talked about my problem with my best friends. Good bless true friendship! Don´t you think so? Blessings to you mannu and your friend
