What makes a good friend?

Hmm. I think the very best friends are those who tolerate you, and/or forgive you even if you've been a jerk. Everyone is a jerk sometimes, and forgiveness for it is essential to maintaining any sort of relationship. Of course, if you find that your friend is ALWAYS in need of forgiveness, or never seems to want to reciprocate, then you might want to reconsider...🤣

I have a friend with whom I can share the little doings of my cat, and I am never embarrassed by it, because I know he loves my cat. He, on the other hand, pours his every ache and pain into my ears, (probably because I allow it).

Mainly, a friend is someone who cares about you, and vica versa.
