Is friendship only a result of like minded ness or more? I think it happens because you have been helped immensely by your friend in one way or other.It is not necessary to have a friend who has similar tastes that you have.You can be poles apart yet be strong friends . Great friends need not meet each other or see each other. They are there when you want them. god sends them ans so such freids are trul GOD SENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Of course you do need such friends who have your wave lengths..... like having fun...laughing......etc.... Which do you prefer.....

Yes helping each other makes friendship stronger. But i feel that friendships are formed when two persons are somewhat alike. Their basic instincts are the same. I had a friend like that and i still consider her my best friend.Even though we meet only once in a while i feel a sort of kinship with her which i cannot even begin to describe. In the beginning i did not like her at all. But we sat together one day while returning from work . She liked me somehow and talked to me a lot . That day was the start of a wonderful friendship. We were so different and yet so similar. We totally agreed on some issues and totally disagreed on some issues but we were totally good friends. So i feel that the basic character or values of two people should coincide if they are great good close friends...

I think friendship just happens. I think that the more like minded you are the more apt you are to becomming friends though. If you have nothing in common then there is nothing to create a bond.

Friends come when you least expect them to. You won't even realize how close you are until you have been tested in time, distance, or situation. Friends don't need to see or contact each other often. Just treasure them in your heart.

I definetly agree with the fact that you don't have to be similar to be friends. Infact, I am nothing like some of my best friends. They like to sit home and watch T.V, while I like to go outside. Friendship is strongly based on trust and the ability to bring joy to each other. If you can make a person laugh, help him/her out, give that person company, you are his/her friend.
