What makes someone a friend for you?

Post Reply New Topic

I was wondering how Aspies and co define a friend to them. What does someone need to do or be in order to be a good friend to you?

Someone who looks out for me and doesn't stab me in the back. Sharing common interests helps too

Friend, n. (Webster)
1. One who is attached to another by affection; one who entertains for another sentiments of esteem, respect and affection, which lead him to desire his company, and to seek to promote his happiness and prosperity;
4. An attendant; a companion.
5. A favorer; one who is propitious; as a friend to commerce; a friend to poetry; a friend to charitable institution.

Two people sharing a desire to interact as equals who care about each other are friends. Other people can be friendly, but that is not the same.
