Getting new friends is easy. Everyone has friends. Friends can influence us in different ways, bad or good. The best thing that we gonna do is to choose whom we befriend. But it's hard to choose. Friendship is developed just like love for a spouse, it is developed. Love for our friend will grow as time passes. That's my view on friendship. I will share to you my experience with a friend. She has been my friend during my early college years. When we were in our teens, we became friends as we were living in the same lodging house and going to the same school in one of the big cities in our country. We came from the same province but we came to know each other only in this city. She had a boyfriend at that time. When we both went home to study in our respective town we didn't get in touch with each other. After 3 or 4 years, she enrolled in my school, it was already my last semester of the school. After that we didn't hear again. I got married and she went to Manila and took a licensure board exam and passed. She also got married. She is now in one of the important offices in the government holding a high position. Then time came when we were destined to see each other again after so many years. With the advent of technology, we got in touch with each other when somebody in her office who happened to be a relative of my husband's relative became the bridge of our communication. Our contact continued. Then she came to home city doing some government transactions, she contacted me and requested me to look for her ex bf who happened to be connected with an agency with link in our office. I had contacted the boyfriend and because of me they got in touch with each other. Then came the time when we met again in Manila, I was surprised because they were already living together and that was because of me. Oh my God, how I really sinned. It was me who was their bridge. I'm sorry for this long statement. Do you think I've done wrong, is it me who can be blamed for this?

I never believed that you did something wrong. You only helped out a friend and aside from that, you are unaware of whatever's running inside your friend's mind so don't feel bad about it. She has a mind of her own to think and she decided to take on the path you mentioned. Stop thinking that you're at fault. It's not healthy :D

It is not easy to find a true friend whom you trust a person, but you are the instrument to met her ex bf but i think they are destined w/ each other whatever consequences in life, so in everything we can do God has a purpose.

yes, i already stopped thinking about it. However, when I remember it, there's less guilt feelings already specially now that we seldom see each other and also the responses here made me realize that my friend is already old to know what is right and wrong.
