Can you still consider a friend if he or she left you in times of trouble. Leaving you in mid-air, then will say save your own skin for such. A friend should firmly stand at your side, no matter what. He or she will walk with you to overcome in times of difficulties.

a friend will help you for sure. but your friend also has problems of his/her own. so i guess i is not wise to judge him/her if s/he fails to be there for one time. you are friends so you should also understand him/her.

good to hear that. anyway, i'd act civil enough too if that were the case. but i'd still try to find out why s/he wouldn't help me. but i won't force him/her.

I open to that kind of scenario, he or she may betray me. But I will be their friends, but not as best pal. Thanks

There is a friend who will be with you in your troubles and travails.His name is Jesus,Call him with all sincerity,he will help you.I had lots of friends who ditched me after their needs,then I called Jesus and he helped to find good friends and a way out of my trouble.

Too difficult to find, right?

If that person leaves you in the middle of a problem, then he/she is not worth calling as a friend. As the saying goes, "A friend in need is a friend indeed".[i][/i]

A friend should be their for one another in the hard times and also good times. It is very hard to find a true good friend. Thanks for sharing and have a wonderful day ahead.

Things are really works in a mysterious way, especially looking for a loyal friend.

A friend is someone that is there for you in good times and in tough times. This is the reason that true friends that we have in our lives are few and far between. When we are lucky enough to find a friend that is there for us all the time, we need to hold on to those friends because there probably won't be a replacement for that friend in your life. I will consider someone to be a casual friend if they were not there for me in my times of need because only your closest and truest friends will really be there for you when you are struggling.

A friend should be the one who should help us or save us when we are in difficult situations. A should be blind and saves a friend at any cost without looking the deepness of the trouble.

If this happen, it is only one thing. They are not a true friend.

yes, we think a lot about friends and friendship, and their company ,help and what not, but this doesn't happen ,in times of need. I faced so many situations, they very cleverly disappear from the place. of course we should know how to manage ourselves,and its most important these days.

I agree, I think it is a part of life to encounter such friends. Thanks

A friend who leaves you at times of crisis will only be a fair feather friend,you will have him when you have everything,otherwise he will scoot you at the first sign of trouble.You can't call them friends but opportunist who will be with you in your good times.You can't keep them away,because they also constitute the friendship chain.There is only single friend,who will keep you company at all times,even when your best friend ditches or when you are in real trouble.His name is Jesus,call him with a sincere faith,in times of trouble, when there is no chance of human help, then he will help you at all cost.If you can call him before that,he will guide you to have good friends and paths that will make you prosper .
