I have met a new friend that I started sharing family life and experiences with. It really makes me happy that I can now confide on a friend I cosider real. I can see that she is really a straightfirward person when she talks. Do you like people who talks frankly? I believe this in one of a genuine characteristics of a friend. How will you knw if your new friend is a genuine one?

I became more comfortable of where I am living now. It gets lonely sometimes when you have no one to talk with. I only have a few friends in our area since the relocation here but when I joined this website it became a fun activity for me. I became busy with all the activities and responses in this forum I just love the friends I made here. Most are really very nice people. I do not even have to search for more sites. I am glad I became a part of this site. It makes me feel sane and grounded.

I have more acquaintances than friends. True friends are very hard to find. I have a few of them. They are the ones that are there through thick and thin, and are not just there when they want something. My mom is actually my best friend. I don't think there is anyone I trust more than I trust her. When I find a genuine friend, I try not to let them go.

I have been warned by some of my friends and it makes me wonder why there are some not so real friends among those you consider your real ones. I do have a lot of acquaintances but when it comes to real friends I can also just count them. True friends are really rare nowadays. There are some who would pose meek as a lamb but takes advantage of the goodness you show show them but there are really real one ones. It makes me happy that I see them, talk to them and share with them whatever blessings I have.

Hi! Yes I do have what I consider as my genuine friends 
. I have made a lot of friends. Its true that they really come and go and rarely could we find what we call our true friends. I came to know that my friends were what I call genuine when the toughest time of my life came. I really lost everything even my self confidence but they were the ones who keep pushing me to keep on fighting. They are not just friends who are there during happy times but they were there when I had no one to hold on to.
