Nowadays is very difficult to get to know someone and to trust them, that's one if the reason of people having a lot of "friends" instead of one real best friend. What do you prefer?

What are 'fake' friends? If a person who is 'fake' he/she would not be my friend. So, I guess I won't have any 'fake' friends anyways. I did know someone who I could not trust, but I never really considered her a friend. I do have friends who are honest, kind and supportive and do try my best to be honest, kind and supportive to them.

By fake friends I meant those superficial friends that only hang with you when they are alone or in need of attention. Nice answer. Bye

Personally, it is easy for a lot of people to have more than one friend, and have a lot of their so called friends be fake, especially when they're really needing someone to talk too. But when it comes to having a Real friend, one they can count on thru thick and thin, and do things with that is always the hardest, but when you find one what a treasure you often behold.

I would prefer real friends because fake friends would probably be users and the only time you'll ever hear from them is if they want something from you. You know the kind I'm talking about.Yep once I discover this out they are crossed of my list and out of my life forever. I mean who needs them. Do you?

I would highly prefer one real friend over a bunch of fake friends. For me, I would take quality over quantity any day. I don't even know what's the point of having fake friends. Is it for social status? If it is, I think social status can seem overrated if taken too far.

One real friend I choose . Fake friends are only mess and will only give you heartache and pain. I've experienced this especially to my false best friend and friends. And yes it's easy to make friends but to find the real one is really hard thing to find. If you want to find a true friend. Prayed to God. I have one true good friend but not here I met him online although we do not see each other but we treated each other as a brother and sister .One characteristic she/he must have is that She must be a God-feared person. a true christian.

I will prefer a real friend,because a friend indeed is a friend in need. We can trust our real friend when we are in trouble, but maybe our fake friends or friends in words will not help us.
