Friendship ... What it Means to Me

By: Red One (View Profile)

I have been thinking about why we make friends and what friendship means to me. With everything that has been happening to me lately, I have come up with these thoughts. A friend to me....means that they are there no matter what happens. They are willing to listen and offer advice, when possible. They are kind, gentle and trustworthy. You can share anything with them. They are able to keep secrets. They won’t judge you for what you have said. They will like you for who you are/accept you for who you are. A friend won’t try to change who you are. Even if you get into an argument, they will forgive you. A friend is someone that you can go and hang out with. A person that you can show your feelings with (example… crying). One more thing...a friend won’t limit when you can talk to them...

Now...Why we make friends...some of the same above...but I feel that we are not supposed to go through life being alone. Friends are an important part of growth and life in general. Friendship is important and I am now finding out just how important it is.

Hello.......if you like read some of "groundhogrd's" articles on Regretful Hurt and some of my latest on "Why Make Friends?"..........Many times we think people are our friends but really they are not. These relationships "break-down" or "drift away" and we feel intense sadness and hurt...........at that time we often question why even bother to make friends? But again yes we are social beings and we (especially women) need friends in their lives for emotional well being, support and happiness............Things will get better
