How do you define a "Friend"

Post Reply New Topic

My problem was I would always treat everyone like they were such people-- if it was one on one (apart from groups). Me plus that person. Which is unsafe as they might not actually be trustworthy and actually be malicious and manipulative.

glad to notice that you are alive now and away from those people

Someone who can be honest with you and you with them.

Signs of a real friend
1. They will like you no matter your flaws
2. They will support you through your good and bad choices and even if they don't agree with what you are doing
3. Even when they don't need a favor, they communicate with you
4. They are with you through and good and bad times
5. They will make every effort to come to your get-togethers- unless they aren't able to make it
6. They will never make plans and then bail
7. Nothing else and no one else will be too important for you
8. They are interested in what is going on in your life
9. They will be very kind
10. They share their personal lives with you and vice versa
11. They are a trusted bond

What's not a friend
1. An acquaintance - someone who you talk to but don't get beyond that
2. They constantly complain about your flaws
3.They always "Way too busy" for you
4. They only contact you when they want something but otherwise ignore or ghost you
5. They don't share personal information with you
6. They are passive-aggressive with you
