I often find friends who hangs on the tail of those who have money or is rich in some or other way.. But friends who participate with me in my everyday life are so less...

I sure know that feeling. The world today is focussed on the individual, not on friendships. There are some people that would be your friend, all you need to do is reach out towards them. Instead of wondering and waiting for a friendship to come you have to be active in it yourself. Get yourself into a community of maybe a politic party or a charity organisation. Meaning something for the community bonds people together. Do not stay at home and swellow in your pity but become active, if its possible every day and the world will change, to you too. And while being active in an organisation as a volunteer for example, friendships will come right away!

People will hang in with people who have something to offer. This can be money but also advice, a helping hand (day and night). If you don't have friends like that, who will be there for you if you need them then ask yourself what you are doing wrong. How come you only attract people who knock on your door if they need you but you can not knock on their door. Are these real friends? I would dump them or not help them out anymore. If you keep doing this you will only find and attract friends who will abuse you and make you feel quilty but will never help you out. Unless you change your own attitude you won't find/attract people who love/like you for who you really are. Like the Germans say: gutheid ist dummheit! (it's stupid to be good).

I don't simply make friendships with people without actually knowing who or what they are.............

Friends attract each other who are most likely of the same status in life. I am not saying that there an ordinary person can be friends with a wealthy person. But if you do come from the same social class, you are most likely to be doing things together, your likes might be the same,so your goals. And you pretty much can relate with each other.

Yeah it is sad to see those who only stick around for money. Unfortunately there are a lot of those individuals in the world. We have to avoid people like that and stick close to those who are good friends and who look out for our interest. They are few and far in between but they are out there.

i am totally agree with you..today people do friendship....according to his/her need. That's why now a days friendship is not more than a word..I have never counted my friends,,,But most of them talks when they want your help.It looks little cheap..But this is truth & we'll have to accept this.

Hi friend, it is really hard to find sincere and real friends in this days. Most of them are interested in spending time and money with their friends, so hang out with the persons who are rich, if you find a real friend in this days, you are really so lucky.

Yes, I agree with you. But not so many will be in that way. There are persons who gives much importance to the friendship. And even you will have around you, the main thing is how you can figure them out.:)
