What do you think about this question? Is it hard to find a real, true friends?
-
Like that old saying goes - When times get tough, you find out who your REAL friends are.
-
I'm now experiencing now that someone that I thought was my friend is actually my enemy! I've know them for 17 years.
-
I don't think it's that hard to find true friends but people think they have far more than they actually do
-
Its hard to find time for friends when you have a family.
-
Yes a true friend is hard to come by. I have 3. One is my daughter-in-law. Her hubby passed in 2001. But she has always been there for us. Now she has married a great young man and I call him my proxy son. Another friend has been a true friend since 1959. The last has been a true friend for a lot years. We are more like sisters then my real sisters. I can tell her everything just as she does me. I had not seen her for almost 7 years and we went to the town she lives in and surprised her. I did not want to leave.

:( Yes, I think it is extremely hard if not impossible to find a true friend. I thought I had one when younger but that friendship fell by the wayside. I hear of people who have had friends over an entire lifetime. I envy that because it has always eluded me.

i agre with all of you when times get tough you find out who are your real friends
-
Yes, if you have one or two your whole life, you are blessed...but that's all you really need!=)
-
What do you think about this question? Is it hard to find a real, true friends?
YES-there are very few true friends.
-
I agree with black sheep.......get in real need and see who will bail on you...lip lovers are all over the place....
-
A true friend is hard to find. People you think that are your friend; are not really your friend. It not easy having a true friend.
-
I agree with blacksheep. You find out who your friends are when you're in need. I think it is hard to find a true friend.
-
Yes, I think true friends are hard to find. In my lifetime, I've only had five or six - my mother, my husband, my grandmother, my daughter, and my best girl-friend. I met my friend when I started my first full-time job, and we've been friends for more than 50 years. We are closer than my other family members.
-
I think true friends are very hard to find it seems people only want to be around to get something out of you, I don't have very much friends but weather they are true friends or not I don't know.
-
I do think true friends are hard to find. I have had friends throughout my life, many friends, but none have stuck around through thick and thin like my very own sister. She loves me unconditionally, and I her. She can come to me with anything, anything at all and I'll give her my honest opinion. She's helped me through some tough times, and I have her. Whoever comes and goes in our lives, we'll always be there for each other. We were born on the same day, and sometimes I wonder if we'll die on the same day!
-
I believe if I want a true friend...I should be a true friend. If I want to interact with people who live with integrity...I should live with integrity.
I'm selective about who I choose to interact with. I have a best friend where we trust, respect and love each other.
:heart:

I am with you on that one! I am also having a bad experience with someone I thought was my best friend for almost 19 yrs. She will regret losing my friendship as I was the only one there for her when she needed someone. Now we will see who is really there for her in the end. I feel sorry for her actually. Don't beat yourself up about it like I used to do. This is the 2nd time I got burnt with her and she is so not worth it! I feel sad inside but she will have to beg for my forgiveness, even though I already forgave her (hehe) but I don't have to surround myself with her negative vibes! :)
-
I'm pushing 40 and I think I've had 2 or 3 good friends. Even than it seems they come and go with life's changes. Someone told me once that when we die if we can count 5 true good friends on one hand you've lived a good life. I'd say that's very true.
-
I agree.You can't have plenty of them.It will means they're not REAL friends.
If you have two or at least ONe-you can always count on-THAT'SENOUGH!!!!
-
yes I def do, and its a shame too, lol
-
I suppose it depends on what you mean by "true friend". If a stranger offers you assistance when you are in trouble are they a true friend? If the people who surround you during the easy/good times for years leave you when the going is tough for you then are they true friends? If someone befriends you while you are suffering and helps relieves your suffering then disappears once you are no longer suffering are they a true friend?
-
I have one true friend and we've managed to stay friends for years even after moving away from each other. They have been there for me when I needed them and vice versa. I "talk" to a lot of people but they are all labeled as acquaintances. I am very cautious as to who I call my "friend".If you can trust your gut and recognize true friendship, then it's not hard
-
Yes, it sure is hard to find a true friend. I hardly have any friends its so hard to trust people and they always disappoint in some way or another.
-
What do you think about this question? Is it hard to find a real, true friends?
i think they are next to impossi8le to find
-
Let me respond to this question with a resounding 'Most definitely!' I am naturally distrustful of people because of past experiences. Most of those individuals only wanted something from me and then they discarded me when I was no longer of use to them. So, no, I do not have ANY true friends.
-
I think a true friend is very hard to find. In fact you're lucky if you come across one in a life time. We have lots of "friends" but a true friend is way above that.
-
It is. I'm not trusting of many people to begin with. :(
-
Yes cause nowadays everyone doesn't have your best interest at heart an they don't care about your feelings
-
I think it is hard to find a true friend, not just an acquaintance. When things go bad is when you find out who your true friends are. Beside my family, I have 5 really true friends, who I can count on when times are tough.
-
Yes it truly is hard to find a true friend. You have so my people who call themselves friends and they have hidden agendas. Even people who you have known for years. That's why we have to be really cautious when we use the word 'friend'.
-
Yes, it is! By their results you will know if they are your frinds or foes!
-
Yes I think so. There are a lot of people who using me as a friend. Right now I don't have much friends around but most of them are mine true friends now.
-
Yes only because these days people are out to get things from you any way they can. But if you are looking for a true friend I would advise go to church and chat with people and if you are objective you will find a true friend. I live in a good area with a good church with many friendly people that if we need help they are there to help us. I have two true friends from our church and are grateful they go there.
-
Yes. Most people who you think are you're friends turn out not to be for one reason or another. People are just rotten in general. :angry7: :angry7: :angry7: :angry7: :angry7: :angry7: :angry7: :angry7: :angry7: :angry7: :angry7: :angry7:
-
REAL true friends are hard to find especially no a days. People have no commitment to anything anymore. It is all about what you can do for them.
-
Yes, A true friend is very hard to find. I am over 45 and I am still looking for that true friend.
-
Yes I think that it is hard to find a good true friend
-
I think it is very hard to find a ture friend. I am very lucky my best friend and I have been friends since we were5. i know she is my only true friend she is there when the chips are down, she will tell my the turth and I trust her.
I have a few other very close friends that I am very grateful for but the relationships aren't the same as with my best friend. :rainbow: :rose: :peace: :wave:
-
I do. When I look back and think of all the people I thought were "true" friends, they really were not.
-
Yes, real true friends are very hard to find and if you ever do hold on to it.
-
yes i def agree!!
-
Dang near impossible to find a TRUE friend. I think if one can count two true friends in their life they are indeed among the richest people on the planet.
-
It depends, but as said earlier. If the going gets tough you'll see who your real friends are!
