friendship. what is it really?
doesn't it suck when you misjudge people and categorize them as friends or enemies?
then they end up being the total opposites.
some people truly suck.
then you have the true friends, you know the ones that are truly with you no matter what.
but those are so hard to find.
ugh.
why is it so hard to find true friends?
true people? is it just me or are people categorizing friends as an accessory rather then a necessity?
or are they actually an accessory?
i'm confused.

Friends are always a confusing thing to have. My opinion is that, in todays society, friends have become an accessory. Some of us (I've been guilty of this too) need the extra attention sometimes, and unfortunately, we end up being "friends" with people we wouldn't normally be friends with simply for the positive attention.
We can be best friends. I'm pretty much the coolest person alive, so you're all set! lol j/k.
Much love, honey. <3
LOL! ofcourse we can, you seem so awesome :).
yes i agree with you, it's like when you talk to someone just to hear a compliment. it's quite sad i think.
lol yay! We'ere BFF's now!
hahaahhah hooray for us! <3
You raise several superb questions here. I agree with you entirely that true friends are “the ones that are truly with you no matter what”. I was raised on the believe that true friends will support you even if it jeopardizes his/her own interest and will come forward to help without any request. With a true friend, you can be sure you will get help to the extent possible by him/her. A true friend will not make excuses of having work or an appointment or anything but will be with you whenever you need him/her. For every 100 friends we have, count yourself lucky if you have 1 person you can call a true friend. I am also of the belief that more often then not when we do find this person, we are inclined to overlook them for fear that their intentions are insincere. Perhaps this touches back on your point about society categorizing friends as just an accessory rather then a necessity? You need to be a true friend to understand what it means to have a true friend. Its much easier for us to expect but very difficult to give.
Yea i do agree with you, but at the same time, true friends also need to understand that there are times that you can't be there for them, that doesn't mean you aren't true or doing this intentionally. my point is, that true friends are those that are true to you, no matter what. all i ask for in a friend is honesty and support, because that is what kind of a friend i am, personally.
Yes. I think expecting a true friend to even put work behind for you like anonymous said is a little much.
Understanding both points of view is very important in a true friend and to be a true friend. You must understand that they need you, but they must understand that they can't always have you right away, but that as soon as you get free time, they will be the first thing you think of.
And above all else, as you mentioned, honesty is a must. If you can't be honest with a friend, are they even a friend at all?
exactly, i agree with you. i mean in reality, friends are just people you like to spend time with, share secrets, thoughts and feelings with, there really shouldn't be any expectations. you have to accept them the way they are and vice versa.
