HOW TO BE A TRUE FRIENDS?

1. Think of what you have been through. Make sure you won't make the same mistake to another, as someone already did to you. You are not perfect or their fairy godmother; try your best to be the true friend everyone should be.

2. Don't pressure them into doing things that are potentially to the person. Everyone feels pressured at some point, but make sure that you're not the one persuading a friend into doing bad things. Have each other's back.

3. Stick with them no matter what the situation. When they are down, cheer them up. If they are having problems at home, stay with them or invite them to stay at your house. Listen when they have problems and show them that you'll stay with them through it all.

4. Be yourself. Don't pretend to be someone you are not. Don't act like you're the top dog of an important friendship. Treat each other equally.

5. Understand when a friendship just doesn't work out. No one likes to see a friendship go down the drain, but sometimes feelings get hurt beyond repair. Do what you can to make things easy, but realise that not every relationship lasts forever.

6. Listen. It's important to know that if you need to vent, someone's willing to listen to what you have to say.

7. Help one another to be the best that each can be. Encourage a friend to do the right thing. Give them the best possible advice.

8. Learn from one another's mistakes. Mistakes help us to improve ourselves, and they give us the wisdom we need. Teach a friend from your own experiences and learn from his/hers. Nobody needs to make all the wrong choices themselves in order to learn.

So, guys...how you all find and try to be a true friend?

POEM FOR FRIENDS

TRUE FRIENDSHIP
True friends are for life
Until the end
They're more than special
They're your bestest friends.

They're the ones you can go to
When you're in despair
The ones that'll help you
Even when you got gum in your hair!

They're the ones who'll laugh
And go laughing with you all through the night
The ones who'll help you
Help you with all their might

To have a good friend
You have to be one
So be nice to one another
So you can be friends forever
And that's how to be the best friend you can be.

Why We Need Friends

1. Friends are always there for us, to laugh with us in the happy times and to provide us with a shoulder, when we feel like crying. They serve as one of the biggest supports in our life.

2. Friends are amongst those few people who accept us, rather like us, as we are. They never come into our life, expecting us to change for them. However, they do correct us when we are at fault.

3. It is said that whether you need to hear the bitter truth about yourself, go to your best friend. He/she will never lie to you, just to please you and win your favors. What he/she says is the truth about you.

4. You can always count on your friends, whether you need any advice or any help. They will shy away from none. The best part is that a friend’s advice will always be for your betterment, whether it hurts you or pleases you.

5. After family, friends are the one who care for you. They bring a smile on your face when you are sad and they go out of the way to make things alright for you.

6. Friends are the ones with whom we can share our darkest secrets, without being worried of them being leaked. They acknowledge our worst ideas and try to fulfill our silliest of wishes.

7. Friends feel happy at your success and sad at your failure. They share all your feelings and make you feel that there is somebody who still cares for you. When you have friends, you never ever feel lonely.

8. Friends love you and care for you. They always make you feel special and never expect anything in return, other than your love and friendship. They stay true to you throughout their lives.

Friendship

"What is a friend? A single soul, dwelling in two bodies" - AristotleTrue friendship is perhaps the only relation that survives the trials and tribulations of time and remains unconditional. A unique blend of affection, loyalty, love, respect, trust and loads of fun is perhaps what describes the true meaning of friendship. Similar interests, mutual respect and strong attachment with each other are what friends share between each other. These are just the general traits of a friendship.

Friendship is a feeling of comfort and emotional safety with a person. It is when you do not have to weigh your thoughts and measure words, before keeping it forth before your friend. It is when someone knows you better than yourself and assures to be your side in every emotional crisis. It is when you can sleep fighting and get another morning with a better understanding. Friendship is much beyond roaming together and sharing good moments, it is when someone comes to rescue you from the worst phase of life. Friendship is eternal. Different people have different definitions of friendship. For some, it is the trust in an individual that he / she won't hurt you. For others, it is unconditional love.

There are some who feel that friendship is companionship. People form definitions based on the kind of experiences they have had. This is one relation that has been nurtured since time immemorial.

There are famous stories about friends in mythologies of different religions all over the world. They say a person who has found a faithful friend has found a priceless treasure. Psychologically speaking, friendship may be defined as 'a dynamic, mutual relationship between two individuals. As children become friends, they negotiate boundaries within which both partners function'. This helps them to function like healthy individuals in life as they learn to draw a line as and when needed in a relation. This greatly helps in the emotional development of an individual.

However, any relation needs constant nurturing and development from all the people that are involved in one. Friendship cannot survive if one person makes all the effort to sustain it without any mutual recognition from others.

Since friendship starts the moment a child starts socializing, the kind of friends that the child chooses should be taken care of till the time he / she learns to differentiate between right and wrong. Wrong peers or lack of socializing can lead to severe psychological traumas and disorders, finally leading to social maladjustment.

The correct peer group is essential for the development of the personality of a child. Both positive and negative experiences refine the personality of the individual. Thus it is essential that you find friends who are compatible with you on an emotional and psychological basis.
