What makes a good friend?

I always thought I was a good friend until I started losing friends left and right and then found out I had enemies. I thought I did everything right. I threw parties, I paid when we went out, I lent and didn't ask for repayment, I was there when they were sick, I did my vest to participate in their activities. The only thing I can see I did was get married and go to the service. Is that a friend sin? Doesn't matter to me now though. But for future reference what do you think makes a good friend?

I've had friends like that and for the record you are better off without pretend poser friends. They were most likely only ever using you. And I know that's not what you want to hear. But my brain is fuzzy from lack of sleep so the censor button is off. I have been there and it's painful. For future reference, a good friend is someone who sees your flaws and loves you anyway. It's someone who asks about YOUR DAY first, before unloading their junk on you. A true friend is someone that calls you after a rainstorm to see if your power went out too and how you weathered things. I had to check your profile to see if you are a guy or girl. The stuff that I am mentioning on friendship only applies if you are female. Females do that kind of stuff for each other. Guys might not.
