Prompt #24 " What are The Three Qualities of True Friends?"



 


     True friends… true friends are friends that you feel the most comfortable with. Friends and true friends are different. You could have many friends but you would have a certain amount of true friends, sometimes maybe one or two or three true friends. Today’s prompt is what the three qualities of true friends are. I think the MAIN quality of a true friend is honesty. Friends should never lie to each other. There may be times when a friend could accidentally lie, but a TRUE friend should never lie on purpose. At a time when a friend accidentally lies, that friend should apologize to his or her friend because lying is just not the right thing to do. True friend tell everything to their best friends. I guess best friends are like one’s true friends. I would tell my best friend everything, because I trust my best friend, but once my best friend has lied to me, I would always think two times before telling my best friend anything. Once a friend makes a mistake, he or she would continue to make that same mistake and think it is okay to make that mistake not thinking of how his or her best friend might actually feel or be hurt by it. That true friend would turn into a friend that just takes advantage of the other friend. The most effective thing to break a friendship is by lying. Having no trust in each other leads to so many things like assuming and fighting over things because you would just believe in what others say and not what other people tell you. This does not mean once two friends fight, they cannot become friends again. Fighting could actually make both friends realize how much they think of each other and how much they actually care. It would lead them to realize how stupid they were for fighting about things that were not even worth fighting. This is true friends! <3
                The second quality of a true friend is loyalty. A true friend should never betray your friend in any way. For example, if you were walking and you see your best friend getting beat up by a bunch of popular friends. If you go say something and help your best friend, the popular kids would bully you at school and make your life miserable. If you just ignore all of that and pass by acting like nothing happened, you would have to live with the feeling of regret in your heart that you did not help your best friend. If you run away then call for help, there is a fifty fifty chance that your best friend would be okay.  If you were just a friend, you would either run away or just ignore this situation. TRUE FRIENDS would NEVER leave his or friend behind. (Or getting beat up, or in any situation like that) If the person who was getting hit was my TRUE FRIEND, no matter what is going to happen to me, I would run to my friend and help her or him. If there is a little time before that, I would call for help first because if I go and we both get in danger that would just lead to worse problems.

                The third quality of a true friend is caring. Friends should always care for each other. Not because they HAVE to but because they WANT TO. True friends naturally just care for each other. This is a form of friendly LOVE <3 which can be with a guy and a guy, a guy and a girl, and for a girl and a girl.
