That’s what Friends are for…

A full- time shoulder to cry on?

You usually say about a good friend, “He is a devoted friend. He will never let me down or betray me.” It’s really important to rely on a friend, but devotion is not the only feature we need in friendship. If you want it to be long- lasting you should have common interests with your friends, you shouldn’t be boring or tactless, selfish or touchy, greedy or cunning. With these features you remain friendless.

There has to be more to friendship. There are times in everybody’s life when you need the firm but gentle shoulder of your best friend.

No-one is saying that you should only love your friends when they are up, and cross the street to avoid them when they are down. But when you are doing all the giving and your friend just taking, it’s time to weigh it up.
