Eventhough we say "a friend is a need in deed", but why even sometimes they will be selfish?

think about it.when your friends ask for some help from you,will you be generous just as you think?or maybe you are asking for something difficult for them...

I think there are genuine friends and not genuine friends. It is always good to get good friends who care about us in our lives.

The correct saying is: "A friend in need is a friend indeed" and it means that if someone is in need of your help, then he will behave as if he were a real friend, though he may not actually be one at all. It is an ironic warning to say that not everyone who appears to be a friend really is one.

Do not depend too much on your friends. Even they are your friends, they will think over and choose the way suitable for themselves to give your help. I think it is nature. Few people will sacrifice themselves to help other people.
