Who is a friend?

In our life we meet many and we talk with many regularly. But we do not call everyone a friend. Only some of them will be our friends. But how can a good friend be identified among so many people we meet in our daily life. In our college days we have so many classmates, who were very close to us. Now my question is how do you identify good friends who will be with u for a life time.. Wat do you look for in a person to be a good friend?

A friend for me is someone you can count on to whatever happens through thick and thin, sadness and joy always there for you help and support you. A friend never betrays you don't keep secrets tells you whats right and wrong in other words good influence. They are also the ones you are comfortable to be with, you have things that are common. Remember as the saying says..."Birds of the same feathers flock together."

Like I replied in another similar discussion, Friends are people who support you and are there all the time, whether you're having a good time or a bad time, whether you are lonely or not. They are the next good thing that you can have after family. Friends tell you when you were right and when you were wrong in doing something. They comfort you when you are sad and share in your happiness. They are honest and support you in almost everything that you do. You can call them almost anytime you feel lonely or need someone to pour out your feelings to. That's what I look for in a friend. Naturally, I would do the same for my friends. People whom you are not in constant contact with or don't feel very close to, or whom you don't feel very comfortable around, these people are the people whom you just know, as an acquaintance, and nothing more.
