TRUE FRIENDS

A friend is a person who stays with us and never leaves us. The basis of every relationship is trust. We should trust our friends and have faith in them. A true friend will always be by our side in times of need. He/ she will support us no matter what the situation is. A true friend is loyal, honest, supportive and understanding. Friends may disagree on certain matters or even quarrel but that should not affect their friendship.

If you have one true friend in a lifetime, you've had a lot.

They're not your real friends unless they defend you in your absence.

That sentence has been interpreted in many ways. LOL A friend in need is a friend indeed... sarcasm, always taking help even when I need some help..worthless kinda A friend in need is a friend in deed.. barter system, you need help, you do can do this for me. And the normal one.. The best one is funny one... A friend in need is no friend of mine. LOL

@vandana7 Agreed, some of our friends can turn out as pests. It is said also "Lend your money and lose your friend." Shakespeare wrote, “For loan oft loses both itself and friend.” I think Basak interpreted it well in his reply - siva

Yes we should help each other. We only come to know about the real friend at the time of difficulty.

I very well resonate with your thoughts. I feel really blessed to have one such true friend and by God's grace he is my husband too. But other than him, I have few really loyal ones who have been always there through all thick and thin.

@debjani1 I think that a friend is not always ready to listen too because of wrong timing. It`s possible in a way that a friend also having difficulties of their own and can`t help a friend

True friends are friend even when they are far from each other and only gets to communicate once in a while in a social media site. That is how I am with my two friends living in Canada. WHenever they come home for a vacation, we are still so very close friends.

I agree with you but not complitely. If I'm doing something bad noone should support me atleast that is what I find to be honest. It's better if someone poitns out your mistakes and help you fix it , than support you in doing bad things.
