Who are your real friends?
Abhishek Choudhury
Who do you refer to as your friend? Is this the person who spends the most time with you? Or is it always there at the time of the problem? Is it a really good definition of a friend or just a meaningful meaning of what a real friend should be?
We can find the meaning in the dictionary, but anyone can do it. And it won’t change the answer that lies within your own thinking. What you really feel is a true friend, what you believe in yourself as a true friend.
The reason why I raised it is because, once I believe he is my very best friend, when I really look very closely, he was not my very best friend. My definition of who is a friend is to have similar opinions and beliefs in your own possession. The person you can relate to and the person you trust can understand
To go into more detail about this, there should be a relationship of kindness and acceptance of a friend, and not just acceptance or giving, but it should be equal on both sides of the spectrum. Without this balance someone is being taken advantage of, who unfortunately many make the mistake of being friends and wondering what it should be like.
Also if they know and believe the friend’s decision, they should be one to make a friend’s decision and support the friend’s decision. There will come a time when friends will disagree, which is right, everyone has the right to choose for themselves. But still trusting them, even though they don’t take special care of the cause, is a matter of friendship.
I had a friend in my special situation; let's name him Bob to keep his name here. With whom he had a hard time, his girlfriend of 3 years was not treating him like a child, and I hardly knew that he was contributing too, but I felt bad for him and befriended him and helped him. When he finally decided to leave her and stood up for her, I let her stay with us and my family. We talked and got to know each other better, and became decent friends, or so I thought. When he came to live with us soon, I found out how many friends he had
At first things seemed good, our contract was to get back on his feet and get his own place. I know he needs to recover some funds from his work before he can get a place so I know it could take some important steps forward a few months or more. A few months passed and it seemed like nothing more had happened, he was making himself at home, and not making much progress trying to move forward. Ted started to hire him to speed things up and cover the amount he spent while we were at home.
And all this time, we had more contact than when we weren't in the same family. Let him know if he is spending his time building another relationship after he gets out of the relationship he was in.
So fast forward, and now Bob and his new girlfriend were living with us!!! I don't know how it happened, but it did happen. When you believe that you are a friend, you are sometimes blinded by their manipulation. Even though it was brief before they got their own place together it still happened.
To present you, Bob and his new daughter, whom I will call Bertha, broke up and took all her things. Even though I warned her about the beginning of the relationship, I was there for her. Now to get back a bit, I got involved with my own business and brought him along, because I know it can help him because it helps us. To get more involved with my business and spend some more time with family, I felt it was time to switch jobs, I told Bob it and he said I was crazy and my business would fail me.
Now that I know it looks like I’ve come a long way from the course here on which our true friends are based, but this example explains more than any word I can write through personal experience. At this point I realized that he was not my friend because he did not support me, but more importantly he did not believe that he would ever get out of the 9 to 5 rat race. Most people believe this is the only option. She didn’t realize how much of a friend she was until I started growing up personally.
All I am saying is that our friends are those who match the level of faith and they do not regularly accept, share and share. Who believes in making you better and has achieved it on their own and also advises you to succeed. Who can raise you and see things for you before you see it.
