In our life friends play many important roles but it is always difficult to find a good one. Sometimes you were cheated by a firend of you and that time you start disbelieving other friends also, in my case i have a lot friends and i always help them in need but whenever i got any problem whether it is small or big one, i never find a good one to help. Am i unlucky or weak in recognising people aroun me?

See some people are very clever in acting so you can't easily figure their real faces..Try to be slowly in steps of getting closer to people so you can think about their behavior.

yes you are right. Lots of people has two faces one is in front of you and other is hidden. We can see his hidden face and that is sometimes comes to a dangerous end.

Yes, I have a number of friends but there are only few of them that I am really close t and I consider as really true friends, that I can count on when I have problems and stuff. Why don't you ask help from your family? Your family will always be there for you, don't look too far..

you are lucky because you have some close friends but what about others who are still waiting for true friends.

There are very few people that I really consider as a Friend, although I know a lot of people. In life's traumas is where you find your real ones.. and I have few so I have found. But I cherish those two or three and don't worry about the rest. I try to be a good friend myself no matter what.

yes that is the thing i want to say it here. I am always in between a lot of people say as friend of me but whenever i need any help from them they shows me a new face. Its very hard to find one who can be with you always.

hi, do you think there reason why they didn't help you? those kind of friends are not really a good friend and maybe they are only using you for benefits. but sometimes there are still valid reason why they didn't help you so still better to ask them why.

I understand your concern. I had been into that situation. It is hard to find a real and True friend. But I know one day I can find someone who'll be a true friend for me the one whom I will trust an can share a secret too. I wish you too can find.

i dont expect from my friends more than they expect from me i am always ready to help them in needs but sometimes when i need them they are not available or refuse to get with me that time. it means searching of true friend is still imcomplete.

Good friends aren't grown on trees. I have found that a really good friend shows themselves rather quickly. Quite often a person will show signs of either being a good friend or a user pretty quickly. Sometimes you just have to experience some and see what type of people they really are. A history with a person will tell alot.

Well that i would completely agree with you when you have said so. I wish i had known that good friends are really really hard to find if you ask me. Friends can be easily made but hard to really get someone whom you know and like. Even more harder to trust that person. I want to get someone who would really trust me a lot and find it better to be with me at all times no matter what happens! Cheers!

This is right you can make lot of friends but to find true friends is very hard. I am also unlucky because my best friend fraud with me so now I cant trust on anybody.

One who cheated you isn't labeled as friend.So-called friends ,It is understood that they mean people who are on very good terms.Friend must be like-minded.For making friend ,first of all we ought to correct our thinking and cann't harbour inordinate wish.

You know, it is hard to find friends. I can make friends online but even then it can be hard to keep them. People have so many different beliefs now that I find having a friend has become more difficult in adult years. I have one really good friend I hang out with and even she can be iffy because she goes through so many emotional ups and downs. I do have a husband and kids and they are my best friends but sometimes I'd like a couple more friends to hang out with on freetime. I have a strong very social personality so I can attract just about any form of person and I have to be cautious.

Having a best friend is very important to peoples lives because without them who can you rely on,cry on their shoulders,have fun and have things to share surrounding them....

maybe you are just too kind and trusting. and of course, there are also a lot of people who are self-centered and selfish that they only do things that will benefit them. i can say that i have a very small circle of friends, but they are tested to be good and true. they have been there in my lowest point and shares with my triumphs. not to worry, you will encounter a real friend just continue to be yourself of being helpful and kind. but be wary not to become a doormat where friends would abuse your kindness. no one deserves to be treated that way. love yourself.
