Friends are forever. Some are hypocrites but the truest friends stand by you despite anything. I am happy to have few such treasured friends whom I can rely upon. One of them is really the best person I ever met! She and I were best buddies in college. I took her to meet my online friend for the first time. She was one with whom I shared all my secrets. In fact, she was also a reason why my online friend became the love of my life.. Even when I went away, she was there, waiting for me to get back to her! She knew that someday we would be back in touch again! She was also the best friend to my bf..and saw him through his tough days when we parted...together they waited..many years.. Through this post, I want to thank them both..from the bottom of my heart..and also apologize for hurting them..Now..I promise to be there..even tough virtually..but be there and be in touch!

I would never depend on a friend being there forever, as there are things about people that you never one hundred percent know about and learn about as a friendship go on. I thought that I knew a person that I classed as a friend who was not a friend, as she not only tried to sleep with my husband, but also back stabs other people. Another friend of mine I would never trust, as they have proven that they can not be trusted.When the trust has gone in a friendship, I am sorry to say so has the friendship.

That is very true. But people all have their faults, and they all make their mistakes. Sh*t happens. Depends on who you are willing to forgive and who you want to leave behind. I know the feeling without a doubt. But I have a big heart and forgive too much too easily. That gets taken advantage of quite often. I was once told some wise words by a teacher. "There are no such things as "friends" they are only people that want something from you" It seems day by day and year by year this statement gets more true. As much as I hate to admit that. But there's nothing wrong with looking at things with an optimistic view. Gotta have hope and faith for something. If not yourself then keep it out there for others.

Awh how sweet :) I used to have a friend like that. Can't say I really do anymore. Got 1 I can think of and shes there for me when I need her. But I know things are going to be tough. I also know that everybody grows up and moves on and starts their own life. Just a matter of who you decide to keep in your life and you you choose to not be a part of it. I'm happy that you can have a true friend like that. Keep her close because unfortunately those are hard to find anymore. :)

Thanks SarahAlyx! Glad that you took time out to read and leave a comment. Point noted! I will keep her close and never let go again! I learned the hard way and now, I realized who are the ones that really care for me! Though she is going through tough times herself, she's there the moment I ping her online..you are right, such people are out of stock now..they don't make like them anymore!

Hi there ! You see true friend in life are hard to come by. Now a days there are not many friends who would stand by you in your thick and thin. You are lucky to have such a friend with whom you could share any secret of your life. I wish that your friendship with your friend should remain forever. I have a close friend who is there with me since my school days and knows everything about me and vice versa. We argue and have discussions but at the end of the day, we know that if any of us need each other, he would be there for help.

I agree that good friends are forever, but the trick is being able to find those people who would class as good friends so that you would be able to be with them. The thing that you have to remember is that if a person is a true friend, they will always help you whenever you need them to even if there is no real incentive or anything that they would gain from helping you. I would do anything for my friends, and I know that they would do the same and that is how I know that we are all true friends and that we are very lucky to have each other.

It is hard to say where you wll find a friend and how long that friendship may last. I can count many people as acwuaintances. There are only a fe people i count on as friends., they are the ones you lean on during the bad times and and cheer along with in the good tines. a true fiend wlll be at your side ni matter what the time of day or the cause.
