Hey guys, i just wanted to stem from a topic about friendships; and i wanted to ask: What are the most important aspects about your current friendships? What are some things that make up that wonderful friendship? I know this may sound really cliché and maybe dumb, but I just wanted to hear about some friendships Thanks guys! |

Haha sounds like you might have another reason for asking  haha
but when your talking about friendships, are you talking about between a guy and a girl or a guy and a guy, cause theyre kinnnda different
but for me and a girl, just as friends, its better for me when the girl is actually talkative (that cant be to hard for most girls now  ) but im also really friendly so i can go with alot of things. However some of the things i dont like are the ones that drink and smoke or are kinda over dramatic or are jerks. Hopefully that helps  |

My girlfriend (as in a friend that's a girl  ) and i have so much in common, but we're so different that we get along perfectly. I sometimes have to give her a lecture on her boy-craziness, then she gives me a lecture on my lack of facebook and a cellphone (which isn't my fault) but we do alot of stuff together. All my other good friends live an hour or more away, and I don't have any great guy friends. |

| I love it how my best friend and I can be well, cruelly honest! "What do you think you're doing? Just leave the guys alone you freak" we stick by each other through thick and thin and I know I get what I deserve from her! |

haha, Clare explained my situation with my girl friends very well! but I'll go into a bit more detail.
with one friend, I've known her my entire life (okay, minus 11 months!) and we've been through it all. we've never really "fought-fought" but I know it's probably only because she's a peacemaker at heart and I'm a loud-mouthed dork, haha. we're very opposite in that respect. she's the "looker" but I'm the "leaper." and I love her for it. :]
with another just as close friend, I've known her for most of my life (since we were about 8-9) and we have "fought-fought" because we're very similar. we're both prideful, loud, and opinionated. so when we disagreed when we were younger, we disagreed. but now we've grown out of that "I'm right and always right" mindset (for the most part!). for example, she likes the Twilight series (not obsessively, but was) and I absolutely detest them. we respect each other's opinions and we can freely discuss it at length without jumping down each other's throats.
those two, I would have to say, are my very closest girl friends. when I am weak, they are strong, and vice versa. they "complete" me, and I do mean that. |

Thanks guys!
To answer a question: i was just asking about friendships in general. Whether it's between a guy and a girl or two girls or two guys. I just wanted to hear about some good friendships, that's all.
I have 3 best friends: two girls and a guy; and we've known each other since high school. These are my pals who have helped me break out of my shell. We've laughed together, and gone absolutely crazy together. These are my friends who know the most about me, and whom i usually turn to when I want to vent, or share something with. With one of them in particular, i've grown so much in my faith. What i love is that i can be myself with them. |

I think that the most important aspects of my friendships are the trust we have. I can tell my friends anything and I don't have to worry about them spilling the beans. What makes a good friendship is when you say, "nothing's wrong, I'm fine." but the friend doesn't believe you and stays with you. I like it when my friends make me laugh even when I don't want to, when they can make me laugh till I cry, they aren't afraid to go completely nuts, they're random, crazy, but they make you love them anyways.
(not to mention the fact that even though I've known my friends I have now for about a year or less, it feels like we go years back. They also have helped me realize just how amazing God is. ) |

| Ive been completely blessed with the friendships god has put in my life. The most important aspects to me would definitely be the trust we have and just the understanding we have between each other. My best buddy Logan has kept me sane throughout my high school life. We just get along super well and have a blast hanging out and acting crazy. Also at a life changing summer camp with North Coast Church last year i made a bunch of amazing new girl friendships not to mention other buds. We all have differences but to be united under christ is a great feeling. We always have so much fun hanging out in big groups wether at the beach or movies!!!!! Its always GREAT!!!!! I Love my friends! |

Well God has put great people into my life but one thing about me is I only have a few friends but they end up being friends I'll have for life. but right now what's hard for me is that my closest friend I have right now his names is Kaya and he's moving to go to collage this next year and I don't have any other guy friends that speak english around me but I got a lot of friends that are girls around me  maybe to may. But any ways, so I would say one of the things I will remember for years probably are the times we just hung out, playing games, playing wii, talking about life and girls xP, and him teaching me the guitar. that's the type of friendship I want, and luckily I will always have Jesus to e my friend, but sometimes I need a physical shoulder to lean on and cry on, and some one who will stop what they're doing to come and see you perform or do things... I have about 4 of those friends right now including Jesus xD I a lucky and happy guy. |

I love when i can go to Jesus anytime i want to and He'll be there to listen to me. He's usually the first person i go to when i have something heavy on my mind, and it's so wonderful to be able to talk to Him. What i love about my friendships with my best friends is that whenever i'm with them, I laugh so hard and you never know when we're going to go absolutely crazy. We're bookworms (me most of all) and pretty much know how to push my buttons.
*Thanks guys, for all your responses! |

Well, I have found a good friend just recently. We had already been sorta friends, but I learned this year just how much I could actually trust her with some of my troubles and feelings. So, yeah, it's been a true blessing. |

i have a bunch of guy friends at my church because they reached out to me when the girls didn't so i bonded with them. i love that they include me in everything. we dont' have to go to the same school but they explain things about their school and listen to me. we hang out and have really bonded. my life would be totally different without them. they teach me alot about guys and the way they differ from girls. its amazing. i love them.
however, most of my friends at school are girls, and they're great for that female support they're awesome. even though they complicate my life sometimes, i can't imagine my life without them. as we say "i've loved you way too long to hate you now"
