good friends

Over the course of our lives, we meet a huge number of people. Some of them are just contacts, others are considered as friend but few are seen as good friends. Considering that there aren’t any certain qualities associated with being a good friend, it’s different from one person to another; therefore, one can choose his good friends depending on specific terms.

            However, there are some broad qualities that apply to everyone that has the honor of being someone’s best friend. The first quality that one thinks about is supportive, which is a great quality but the truth is, best friends aren’t always supportive, on the contrary, most of them  they make fun of your little problems,  give you a hard time and even put you in trouble sometimes. That’s their role in a way. They are the people who make you realize that you shouldn’t fear your biggest problems because in fact they’re small and easily manageable, good friends motivate you to be a better person. Most importantly, those are the ones you make your stupidest decisions with, and go through crazy adventures that we will never regret or forget.

On the other hand, in those dire situations when a problem is actually threatening, a good friend is the first to be on your side to help you. That person is someone you can trust with your secrets and count on him to help you when you’re in a disadvantage. Friendship, like everything else, is not perfect, even best friends since childhood encounter huge problems and fight each other. Yet, in the end, they know that they’re always there for each other, no matter what happened.

Nevertheless, there are some qualities that shouldn’t be in a good friend, like: jealousy, lying and deceit; those are the things that break friendships forever.  Simply put, the quality of a good friend is just one basic thing: someone you know you can’t live without.
