What is true friendship for real? I think everybody defines friendship in his/her own way. I define true friendship as the following: A true friend is a friend that is always there for you, True friend is always the friend that gives you the right advice at the right time. A true friend is a friend that is never sick of you no matter howlong you talk or hangout . True friends will come to you and tell you what your doing wrong without you getting offended. If I want to keep going on this it will go on and on and on.

Some people say friends come and go, well I have two words for these people, Your Wrong ! A true friend is never forgotten no matter what the circumstances are, if you move to a different country. Guess what that friend is still your true friend. Places and time Do not change the fact that your a friend with someone. In my life I was fortunate to have some true friends and lots of other friends. However, I’m most blessed to have those true friends that no matter what you do, they will always love you and like you the way you are.

Nobody gets to know their real friends untill they actually need them in something. One thing I learned is that you have to listen to your friend and take the time to understand where they come from and what they mean. Cause as well all know people tend to jump into conclusions and stuff, however a real friend doesn’t because he knows you well enough to know better. I don’t think it matters howmany friends you have, in contrast to howmany genuine friends you have. There’s a saying that says: It takes years to build up trust and only seconds to destroy it. Well I have my own saying, It takes years to build up a true friendship and also only seconds to improve it. In otherwords, if you and your True friend had a problem, well you can work it out in a matter of no time. That is true friendship my friend. It’s compensating ! Friendships Don’t Die, They Continue To Grow So Be Sure To Cherish The Friendships You Know!
I want to thank all my true friends out there. They know who they are and thank you for being there for me and being my True friends.

    You can never underestimate the value of a true friend.
    “A real friend is one who walks in when the rest of the world walks out.”
    “Everyone hears what you say. Friends listen to what you say. Best friends listen to what you don’t say.”

    A good friend will come bail you out of jail, but a true friend will be sitting next to you saying,
    “That was f*@$ing awesome!”
