I guess I have two best friends and just maybe two more friends. It's a very small circle.
My one best friend is the one that I travel with. I call her my sister-in-law even though she's not really married to my brother but they've been dating 25 years. They don't live together. Her name is N and she's 14 years older than I am. She's 74.
My other best friend is my friend who is homebound. She hasn't left the house in 6 years. She has lymphedema. Her 32 year old son lives with her and takes care of her. Her name is S and she's 2 years older than me. She's very wise and we are both Christians and we talk about all sorts of serious and silly matters.

I used to have two best friends, but now it’s only one I’d qualify as best. About a year ago I noticed my friend was becoming a bigot, and it got to be so bad I couldn’t bring myself to associate with her anymore. What surprised me is that being black, she knows what discrimination feels like. But her attitude towards Israel and Jews is inexcusable.

Not really sure how to answer that. I do have a few friends, but don't know that I would put them in the best friend category. They are more like close friends.

I guess God, and my sister and my sister in the church.
But God is the one who is always present and never leave my side... Heis always there when I need help, and there are many times He proved it to me.

I have three besties even though we no longer live near each other. We keep in touch via phone calls, texts and FB.
One is from my childhood and we've been friends forever and the other two have been friends since our kids were all in school together.

I have several neighbor friends and only one I considered best friend. We used to play on the streets, wandering around the community and doing some mischievous acts like stealing ripe papaya from our old lady's orchard during night time.
