Friends

[Dart_Doctor]

Not the tv show lmao What dose a friend mean to you ? What it means to me is that if afriend is being wronged no matter if you will be shunned for doing it you stand up for that friend or friends . No matter what you stand up for them and fight , I want my friends to do the same for me if it was the other way around .

True friends are helpful without asking anything in return,standing up for a friend [weather that person is present or not],always willing to drop what they are doing to answer questions/phone,never mistreating/disrespecting other friends,replacing all your beer and cigerettes they drank an smoked,never foolin around with your ole lady or daughter,never stealin your stuff.

A true friend will answer the door at 3AM and help you get rid of a body with no questions until the job is done.

Yup.

What's the old saying? A friend will post your bail... a real friend will be sitting in jail next to you?

wow this post is something right out of my yesterday.As it turns out i found that a friend of 17 years has choose to take sides against me even though i was not only right but i had to choose for him that as a friend you stick by them most of all when there are right.so i told him if i mean that little to him than please forget we are friend.
Funny thing is he choose his girl friend of 3 years that he cant stand so he would rather side with her as to not argue with her.And man shes off her rocker.I guess that a woman that lies is more important that an honest friend...of 17 years.
Side note for the last 3 years he hides at my house from her hummmmm where to hide now.

Is friend to me is someone who is there when you have nothing to give and can't do anything for them. When you have alot it seems as though you have what apears to be alot of friends , but when you have nothing to offer or nothing they want that is when you will find out who your real friends are !

I've been looking for a friend like that for 40+ years.

In my world, you have acquaintances or buddys (people you know but........), friends (that will help most or sometimes), or True Friends (Brothers) No need to explain that. You can have a lot of buddys, many friends, but if you can count your Brothers on more than one hand, you are blessed with some good True Friends!

Around 99-2000 I had some health issues, got into a huge car crash which affects me today, and suffered some serious depression and anxiety which seemed to have no cause.

You REALLY find out who your friends are, and you'll find you don't have MANY. Those same people who were "still there" are amoung my very very few friends I have today, except for some that have passed on.

My Mom was certainly there, one of my sisters was not. Two guys I've know for 30 years took a hike. Several others I thought I knew well have never bothered to call, write or even drop by. A couple of friends I've know in amateur radio are still with me today, and many others are not on speaking terms, my choice, regardless of theirs.

I've also been royally, completely shafted by 2 "friends" that I mistakenly thought would always be "the ones."

So, I guess, really really hang on to the ones you know are the good ones.

Friend.....someone who will be honest with me......tell me the truth even if it is not what I want to hear. A person that, while they will have my back when the need arises and I am in the right.....will still be by my side when I am wrong they will tell me I am wrong. Someone who will not pass judgement on me......But if there opinion is different will tell me...

i use Chrysler's vin number price classification (second digit) format to rate "friends"

L : Low: an L code is an acquaintance someone i dont really know and wont put any time, money, or effort into getting to know them....just let things happen naturally.

M : Med: an M is a person of interest, someone i want to know more about....i will put time, low budget, and moderate effort to get to know OR someone that i already know moderate info about and so far like what i see and know about the person

H: High: an H code is someone i really like, and i am willing to do a lot for this person. time and effort put into this person is well spent. i am willing to go out of my way for this person.rayer:

P: Premium: A P code is a life friend someone that i absolutely adore and i would take a bullet for or jump in front of a speeding bus in their place...as the class gets higher the amount of ppl in those classes gets smaller.

S: Special: an S code is a spouse......and since in my culture we do arranged marriages, i would hope to become friends with him but obviously i wont know him until the wedding. i am willing to do a lot for this person but would only expect to be provided for by him in return, as far as emotions i dont expect much.

O: Order (special Order) like S/S ......this classification is reserved for my future kids.......the only ppl in the world, (if i have any) that i would do absolutely anything for them even if it means my own life....no favor or sacrifice is too big for them.

The biggest problem with friendships is getting in a situation of mutual classifications ......there are ppl that i would put in the "P" class but they wouldnt do the same for me and on the flip side there are some that would keep me in high classification but unfortunately i can not reciprocate for a number of reasons.

its a sad world and nothing hurts worse than our own emotions. but you just have to take what friendship you can get and give only what you can spare......it will never be perfect but will work for some time and most friendships will die off and few will grow, but thats the real world.
