What kind of a friend are you?

April 14, 2011 1:39am CST
I really want to know what kind of a friend you are.. What kind of bond you have with your friends? Well, as for me I am the generous one. I like to be generous and help my friends the best way I can. I was born under the star of Leo and true that I am a very loyal friend. But once you break my trust, I could also get fearsome and protect my own pride. For me friendship is not a bond to be taken for granted and must always be taken cared of.

I tend to be supportive, too often to my own detriment, but such is a rut I won't chase away. Generous, likewise to my own detriment at times. And I have learned how to rspect the individual without supporting every silly thing they do, so this Leo has leaned away from loyalties.

Whether it be money or food if I have it I give it without expecting to be repaid. It you need a place to stay you can stay with me. If you need a shoulder to cry on or an ear to listen mine are available. If I see you doing something or acting in a way that I believe you shouldn't I will tell you about it, even if it means you're going to get upset or angry with me. That's what friends are for. I will keep your secrets, I will laugh with you, cry with you and rejoice with you. I will share your sorrows and your joys. I will be there for you in anyway I can. I will not say to others what I won't say to you about you. I will treat you the way I want to be treated as a friend and I hope you do the same. I agree with you friendship is not a bond to be taken for granted and must always be taken care of. It really hurts when someone breaks that bond without letting you know why.

Very loyal, I have secrets from 'friends' that weren't friends, they are not my friends now and still don't go out there telling really important things of their lives. And when they get into trouble, it's my fight. I'm very protective, maybe too much.

That's one great guts you have there:) and you sure are a keeper ?

Hi! I don't understand what you mean by "a keeper", pardon my English. In the past I would get in the middle of friends problems that actually didn't feel the same way about me. Now I'm more like helping the defenseless like children, animals, the elderly. But for real friends, those who also stand up for me, and specially for my family, their enemies become mine. I might not hate the person but if they attack I will defend right away. It's funny but I'm sooooo afraid of insects while I'm not afraid of dying. Little dangerous too.

I'm a true friend. I treat my friend as if they are part of my family. I am so close to them that at times, I forgot to set some limitations and get hurt if they ignore me. I love to have friends also that treats me like I am part of their family also.

I know because sometimes it hurts to know that they don't care for you the way you care for them.

we have a line for being sensitive but we also have to remember that it's never nice to have "too much" of sensitivity. :)

Funny that your user name has Devil in it. Sorta ironic at first glance that you are a very good friend. But that is not meant to be rude, as I dont judge people before I know that as a rule of thumb. I really dont judge much at all so I guess thats the wrong term. But I am a very trustworthy and rock solid friend. I will always be there for my real friends and even hold quite a bit of compassion for ones that I dont know much. So thats where I stand until you and if you play me wrong or someone I care about then its over I am no longer very nice to that person.
16 Apr 11
HAHAHA! you're the first one to notice:) Super LIKE your response.. if you want to know why I got this nick it's because my best friend posted a blog about me and she coined me as a "devil" not because I was evil but because I was always ready to cover up for her mistakes even if the consequence would be a disgrace in my reputation. :) I was really touched that she see me in this way and I have kept her as my BFF

Hi there Grazmaniandevil! That's nice. Not anyone can be generous and it just shows that you are a good friend. My sister is also a Leo and she is also loyal and generous. I am that thoughtful one. I always remember the important dates, I always worry about my friends and I am very sensitive and would immediately notice if there is something wrong or if something has changed with my friends. I am a good listener and my friends think so too, judging from the frequency of their opening up to me about their problems, fears and thoughts about things. I also like giving special things for my friends to show them how much I value our friendship and how much I appreciate their presence in my life.

Iam such kind of friend that whenever a friend ask something can be handedover to him at any cost. There are so many instances I have faced difficulties after giving more than asked by my friends. I lost so many things doing so. Gradually I used to keep away from such friends.

You are a sweet friend..Lucky are your friends to have you:)

I am a good company ,good in the sense that i always protect my friends from everything that might harm them. I always give them advice or suggest them things that will benefit them. Anyway,my friends are good ones too,never drink or smoke. It is because we keep a good company and look at each other like true sisters and not plain friends. We never get jealous with each other,or take anyone as a leader. We treated each other equally and listens to each other as well. Friends are those people who always stays in times of troubles and happiness.

I am not a very sociable person, and I really don't welcome anybody that easy no matter how they trying to be nice. I still take time to know people, i have had experiences before of people befriending for selfish motives and also i have heard a lot of stories about people taking advantage of other's gullibility. But don't think im cynical, when i know i found one true friend, i will treat him or her more than a friend...he or she will be my fammly. I will be there as a shoulder to cry on, i will be there telling straight to their face they are wrong. I will tell them if i dont like their idea. but making sure respect is still there. I have a few ones, thats been in my realm for long years now,not a handful , but very good ones, and they are enough (^_^)

All my close friends always tell me, "I'm a very nice friend." However, I don't consider my self nice. I have bad temper sometimes and lose my patience easily but with a few chosen people only. Those are two of my challenges I'm currently working on improving. However, as a friend I'm loyal meaning no matter what happens I'll stand by your side but I would tell you if you are wrong or right. I am honest with my friends. I'm also the type who would sacrifice my own happiness for a friend. My friends and family are always my priority in my list and I'm always the last. It's like unconditional love. I don't also expect that much from my friends. Aside from that I can easily forgive friend and accept them including their imperfections. :)

Reading your response, it says NICE FRIEND. Sometimes doubts come across ourselves but this doubts make us realize and find ways to become better friends:) It's good to know that you reflect on yourself more rather than being contented on what other people say.

Iam a kind of friend who will make time for a friend no matter what. Even if they call me for an emergency at an UNGODLY hour of the night. I will be there. But Iam also the kind who atleast wants to be appreciated. Though, I do not expect anything in return, but I want my friends to atleast keep in touch with me whether they need something from me or not. But once I realise if a friend just calls me during emergencies and then forgets me when they do not need anything from me, then I'll tell them Im busy the next time they suddenly remembers me again.

Every friend wants to be appreciated.. If a person doesn't learn how to keep their friends then they're no good at all. We are human and we yearn to be loved, appreciated and cared for.

I may say I'm a generous type too to the extent that even I'm short of something money or anything if my friend needs help I;ll be happy to help. Friendship to me is more than a brother or sister, I'll treat as my own family.I'm an open person, what I mean is if I have a problem he/she is the first one to know it and I want same with my friend.I'm the kind of guy who puts trust to someone easily.
16 Apr 11
I hope you take good care of yourself too..Trusting people easily even your friend can be a possibility of danger..take good care of your heart

I am a very caring friend and all my friends know I am here if they need me. I am not around all the time though. I get pretty caught up in my life and dont see them as much as I should but they definitely I am always here. I would say I am the more tame one out of my group that is a good listener. I am a listener, not a talker. Most of my friends are talker. Most of my friends are funny, and I am not a funny person, more serious so we all mesh well.
16 Apr 11
I guess your friends find balance in you:) A good friendship is a mix up of totally different personalities. When all member's of the group are talkative and no one listens then surely, it is bound to clash.
