A Friend is someone whom one is acquainted with; someone who is reliable, trustworthy, considerate and supportive. I consider someone as a friend if the person can stand his or her ground to corrects my wrongs even if it might hurt my pride and as well give me the support and push that I needed in any circumstances I find myself. If I can have someone that have these unique features, then I can proudly say I have a someone worth calling a FRIEND.
Friendship nowadays is something else, some people are just friends with benefits that is do for me and I do for you. They are there to enjoy the good times with you, when they notice a slight change in your financial stability they tend to pick race and leave you alone to care for yourself. I consider such friendship as a per-time friendship which is based on luxuries.
But in a situation whereby you have set of right people who stay by you in both good and bad times, then you have to count yourself lucky. Having the right set of people as friends is an amazing thing and I love true friendship but finding such right set of people is very difficult nowadays.
I'm a person that doesn't like to keep friends, I love my space and I always mind my business, so I find it very difficult to make friends with people. I'm always exhausted when I'm gisting with someone that's why I'm more convenient chatting on my phone with the few friends I have than meeting them physically. So I don't find it easy at all to make friends anywhere I find myself, though I have friends but they are very few in number.
If there is something called a greeting-mate, then I can say some people fell into that categorize with me. There are some people I know that the only thing we do to one another is just to greet nothing more lolz..... I know nothing about them and they know nothing about me, just to greet ourselves that's all.
But for me to call someone my friend, definitely the person would have been someone of respectable character. I'm someone who loves reciprocating good deeds and I can go to any length to make life comfortable for a friend, so if I can see someone who is willing to reciprocate such gesture to me then I'm in for the friendship.
I believe having few reliable friends is better than having a large number of people. I define my relationship with everyone I met and set boundaries as well, so keeping fewer number of people makes it easier for me to keep in touch with them and also help one another out in one or two things. So I prefer having fewer people I can call genuine friends than make almost everyone I met my friend.
Therefore, I have a small circle of friends which has made life very easy for me because I don't have to bother about large number of people. And we tend to do things in common with all seriousness in us.
