I have met a lot of friends in my workplace. And the weirdest things was they were those people whom I never expected to be my close friends the time I first met them. But in just span of one month. I develop closeness to them. The good thing in me, a lot of people is giving me positive feedback when it comes to how I relate with them. Its a good feeling that people around care for me so much even though I just met them recently. They said that I am a good listener and they dont need to be someone else when they are with me. For me friends should be treasured more than a gold. They are the people who will push you up when you are about to quit in life.How about you? whats the meaning of friends to you?

I met alot of people while I was working too. Not many were friends. Most were what I would call acquaintances. Some I would get close to but am not open to all. I am a good listener and I have worked in jobs where I knew a group of people I got rather close to. Friends are ones you keep in touch with, spend time with, enjoy the same things, and have a continued caring for.

For me, friend is treasure as well. But sometimes, some of my friends just stab me from my back. So, yes, sometimes I do disappointed with those people. When someone is my friend, I am like open-book and I treat them as if they are my family. Sometimes, I put my friend on my priority as well.

Friends are there to help us with things we can't do... when we have problems, they are the ones who to cry on to and help us ease the pain. know that life is meaningless without friends. so from time to time, we have to be there for our friends. not just for fun, but specially when they need someone to be there for them...

I also met new friends in the school and a one and only best friend in life. Friends are always there to help you in your problems but other story about with my best friend. Friends are the people who don't show you bad habits like back stabbing, making faces, trying hard friendships and others. Friends are the ones who are willing to have a friend like you who also repay the things that you have done to them. Friendship is not used just for fashion but should be treasured. They are like a lost treasure when we find those special products they shine and they will always be there on our side.

a friend is someone who is a family member, only closer because you chose each other. unlike your relatives, where you have to love them because they are your relatives. a friend is someone who you would love like a family member forever..unconditionally, even though you don't have to for any other reason than you guys' love for one another. it's a very special yet rare thing.
