You wanna know who your true friends are? Screw up and see who's still there.
A person who is truly with you will never rejoice over your suffering. If you notice that someone always seems to be up because you are down, then chances are they are not really a friend to you. No matter how much we may wish for someone to truly be a positive factor in our life, a lot of times people just have no desire to see us prosper.
It's beautiful when two strangers become best friends, it's terribly depressing when two best friends become strangers.
One crazy thing about life is the fact that we never know who is going to be there for us in times that we thought they always would. Sometimes people that you consider your closest friends disappear by your side, while people that you least expect to be there for you, make their way into your life when you need it most.
In the end, you'll realize you only have a few true friends. But that's better than having many fake ones.
A true friend will always be honest with you. When we go through some of the more trying portions of life it is easy for us to get so absorbed in them that we aren't able to really see the full gist of the situation. Without being able to fully understand different situations we often come to points in our lives in which we feel confused about a lot of things, including our close friendships.
I'd rather have an enemy who says that they hate me, than to keep a friend whose mission is to put me down secretly.
Fake friends are nothing more than a toxic cancer to any person. Not only are they the antithesis of what a real friend is supposed to be, we must all realize that the fake people we allow to stay around us will eventually bring us to our demise if we allow them to. It is pretty clear from a young age that we must be willing to watch the people around us no matter how close we thought we may have been to them.
If you treat me as a friend and trust me, you may find that I justify your trust.
When someone who considers you a friend gives you trust, and you accept this friendship as one you will protect, it is your ultimate duty to keep this sacred by never breaking the trust of a friend. Honesty isn't always the easiest policy to act on, but it in the end will always be the best policy to put in to use in almost any friendship.
