What a friend should be..................!!!!!!!

We all have friends. A lot gets talked about friendships. Everyone
wants a true friend, and many of us believe that we have a friend who
can be called a true friend. What kind of relations do friends share?
When can we call a friend a true friend, and when can our friends take
us as their true friend. After a romantic relationship, friendships
are the most important relationships we can have. Though all of us
have family and distant family, most of us rely on friends for advice,
comfort and inspiration. How do we define a relation that can be
called as one of true friendship?

The very first sign of a very good friend, not necessarily a true
friend is that we are not worried about courtesies. You will call your
friend at any hour and talk without any thought of time in your mind.
Similarly, whenever you need support, you will call a very good friend
and ask him/her to help you out. They expect the same from you.
Another important trait of such relations is that we are not much
worried about exposing ourselves. We speak about everything in our
mind without worrying about what our friends will think. We are sure
that they will take our talk in the spirit it was made. We are
unguarded and open with friends in our talk.

A true friend is a little more than a very good friend. A true friend
will support you even if it hurts his/her own interest. A true friend
will understand your motives and needs and will be with you without
any analysis or criticism. A true friend will come forward to help
without any request and be with us in need without showing it or
expecting anything in return. With a true friend, you can be sure that
you will get help to the extent possible by him/her. Nothing will
remain unturned. A mother is a true friend of her children. If we
share such relations with an adult we can say that we are true
friends.

A true friend makes no excuses of having work or appointments or
anything but will be with you whenever you need him/her. In your hour
of desperation, a true friend will support you even if the whole world
opposes you. A true friend is not an opportunist. A true friend means
to have someone who is like mother, as I said earlier. Instead of
having hundreds of good friends, if you have a true friend, treat
yourself lucky. If you can also become a true friend of someone, you
will be blessed, because it is much easier for all of us to expect but
very difficult to give. Be a true friend yourself.
