How many best friends have you had? Are you picky in who is your friend?

I do have quite a number of friends, but only two best friends and these two are the ones whom I will turn to for everything. I guess the rest of my friends are people who I can get along very well with, but not necessarily people who I can bare my heart to. I suppose I'm just as 'normal' as you are :)

I consider all of my friends my best friends. I realize there's no point in having just one.

I am VERY careful as to who I call "friends" as I believe it is one of the most abused words today. A friend is a person I can trust with my everything.A friend may be out of my life for years but we just pick up where we were. I have few friends but the ones I do call friend is one for life. Guess you are more "normal" than you thought....

I love to make friends, but of course, it takes a long time before we could get to know and earn trust from each other. But I have childhood friends, whom I'm more at ease and knows what they are good at and to what they are in need of more understanding. But I treasure and understand them, they are always around me when I'm in need of comfort. The same thing that I also do for them, give and take and sharing to one another. But there are also times when I get to feel that I only need to be alone, at times where my friends would also understand my part. What's imoportant is, we've already put up a strong foundation in our friendship. Nobody can break it and separate us all apart..

I really only have one best friend, even though she lives in Colorado now. We met when we were in the 6th grade and I was the new kid in school and we've been best friend ever since. :) I really miss her, but we talk on the phone and email all of the time, so that helps. :) We're from the same hometown, so maybe we'll get back there at the same time. We've missed each other over the past 9 years when we go home. We've talked about going to our next high school reunion, so maybe we'll get to see each other then.

I am not that choosy when it comes to making friends. I just go with those who are kind and with sense of humor. I have many friends and I considered them all as my best and true friends.

I am very careful with who I consider my best friend. It takes a lot of time, and my current best friends.. Cherie and Gerard.. I have known them for a long time, and have put them through things and they have been there always. I have had maybe 5 people in my life that I consider my best friend, and each time I lose one.. it makes me more reluctant to get another one.

I had a circle of "best friends" when I was in high school but I have lost contact with them now. I don't usually go out with friends. I like it better when I go out alone. Maybe I'm just not used going out with friends. But I do have friends at work. Well, not lots of them, because I'm picky with friends, too and I don't usually talk much. But I do joke around with a few trusted friends.

lol i think your pretty normal.. and probably more loyal to your friends than most people are... i have many friends, but very rarely do i consider anyone my best friend! i have alot of trust issues and the term 'best friend' is just not something that should be handed willy nilly!
