Something that would define each as individual from eachother. Perhaps any examples of personal experience or observation.

A TRUE FRIEND KNOWS EVERY SINGLE THING ABOUT YOU....AND STILL LIKES YOU ....

A friend is someone that you know but not quite as much as a true friend. for example: A friend will sometimes tell you the truth and sometimes that friend will sometimes tell you nothing but lies. A true friend is someone that you can count on. Someone that you know very well and that you know for sure that person will never lie to you or anyone else no matter what. And that friend will always hold your back at all times when you need it best. *smiles and winks*

Well a true friend understands that everyone is different so instead of fighting behind silly things or getting mad at each other you would accept everything about them and instead of judging them give them advice. A wanna be friend is always out to help their self and can care less about your life and whats going on with it. A true friend listens and response with a caring approach

There's a tacky joke about that

A friend will help you move

A true friend will help you move bodies.



In reality a true friend will always be a true friend when things are not going right. They will always stand by your side no matter what. A regular friend will only be there for the good times and when you really need them they won't or can't be there for you.

If I was in a fight for my very life, and I called all my friends to come help me, I know already which 7 would be there as soon as they could. The rest of my friends wouldn't show. That's the difference.

A friend will come to a dinner party, a true friend will be there to help you set up and not leave until the last dish is done.

a true friend is someone who will be there for you when they will be rather elsewhere. i will give you examples



my true best friend came with me to someplace where i need to go, but i couldnt go alone, and at the same time her big load of homework was incomplete and the next day she got detention for it! it happen twice! (she got detention only once though!)



i was up all the night to help my friend through her project where she was stuck and she was really grateful!



we share each and everything with each other and some things as secret!



true friend is someone who is always there for you in the worse times!!!! as i was for my friend when she need me to finish her sci project and she was for me when i had to go somewhere where my own mom wont come with me!!!



a friend usually just talks to you and dosent really care what happens to you! they will share your happiness (and maybe will be jelous) but wont provide their shoulder for you to cry in the saddest time, whereas a true friend is the one who is happeir than you that you got your sucess and that it were his/her goodluck that made you through it!



a true friend is treasure of life! true love is rare and true friendship is more rare than true love!

love is blind, but friendship closes its eyes!

A true friend comes around the corner when you don't expect, and you are actually happy to see them. They may not always be there, but when it counts, VOILA!

A friend will bail you out of jail.

A true friend will be sitting next to you saying, "We messed up, but we sure did have fun."

A true friend will tell you ugly truths. A friend or simple acquaintance will avoid ugly truths.

a true friend is someone you can trust and someone who wont come and see you in jail when you commit a crime, but someone who is sitting in the cell saying we screwed up. a true friend is someone whos got your back and will sacrafice something for you.

A friend is someone you'll tell your life story to. A best friend is someone who lived through it with you.

A freind is with you in good times. A true freind is there when things are not good.
