A Conversation for Talking Point: What does it mean to be a good friend?
Friendship.
I'm not really here Started conversation Nov 30, 2001
Unconditional love and support, that comes naturally. Being there for your friends, and being able to speak your mind without it breaking the friendship. It's too hard to explain. Here's what I posted to AGB's page after the meet up in July. It says it so much better than I can now. "How can I explain how happy you made me while you were here? Always there online when I need a friend, you are exactly the same irl. Never further than the ties of love that bind us, to have you so close for those days is indescribable. How can we have built this bond from so far away? Even when you were in pain with your feet on Saturday, whenever I spoke to you, you always turned to me with a smile on your face. Never brushed me aside, never looked bored. I've never had anyone like you in my life, and I hope you stay forever." http://www.bbc.co.uk/h2g2/guide/F41297?thread=126599

Empathy, empathy, they can never have enough empathy!

To have a friend, you must first and foremost BE one.
Friendship is a kind of love, and the best relationships are when the couple are friends as well as lovers.

Friendship is a mutually beneficial relationship in which two people not only "get along" and are able to share similar interests, but are able to share deep secrets with each other, knowing the other will never tell anyone.
