What does friendship mean to you?

A good friend knows your memories. A best friend helped you make them

Mutual honesty, respect, acceptance and appreciation.

I've dropped the concept of should and should not when it comes to people and relationships.
I accept those I can, and hope they accept me. Time tells whether someone will show up for me or not.
Often the people who showed up were those I did not even consider as friends.

For me real friendship comes from previously shared experiences that have helped to bind us to some degree. Someone I know we can mutually & safely confide in. We have each others back.

Supportive. Yet tells you the truth, not what you want to hear.
Always acts in love.
Challenges you.
Loyal. He'll stand by you when no one else will, no matter the consequence.
Gives and doesn't count the cost. Of himself, of his time, and talents.
Cherishes the roads you've travelled together.
Picks up in the middle of the night.
A man you admire.
Hasn't changed.

And I saw him just a while ago.

That's a good question because I have never actually had a true friend.

Genuine, understanding, reliable and like-minded. :)

Never having to say, I am sorry.

nurturing and supportive plus fun

Having a good time, having each others' backs, knowing and keeping secrets, giving good advice, having some shared interests and never making your friend feel alone

I'm not the kind of person who deserves to have friends. I'm just there for somebody when they are at their worst to offer support but at other times I don't want to bother spending time with them. What do I expect ? Authenticity. Sighs. Lol

It meant alot in the past when i was a teen... now it means nothing anymore cause i realized i never had a sincere friend in my life.

I don’t expect too much out of people, I’ve learned not to. My standards are high and most wouldn’t even attempt to...lol

Trustworthy and loyal to a fault. We have each other’s backs.

I take it seriously.. and I’m a loyal and trust worthy friend.

It’s super important to me, when it’s genuine

Loyalty, friend should be loyal to me and caring

This to me sums it up, better than my words...
