Nowadays we seem to be more and more concerned in having a successful career,becoming rich,and we seem to forget our friends,we are too busy to spend time with them.We have now "cyber friends",but do we really have true friends,friends who are there for you when you need them,who are your friend without any hidden motif?Is a "cyber friend" a true friend?Can we trust them?Can we rely on them?Do you think it's good to have "cyber friends"?It is said that the aim of life is self-development.To realize one's nature perfectly-that is what each of us is here for.Can you have faith in a complete stranger who can tell you everything he desires and imagine? Please serious answers....Thanks

Hello.Your questioun is really interesting and i believe its the same i have been asking myself lots of times.Do real friends exist?You are right we are really busy working and forget about them.You can find true friends really rare,You call someone your friend but youy really dont know if he is honest with you.You dont search for real friends!They will come to you soon or later.Unfortunately nowadays a true friend is really hard to find.Someone who wont lie to you and use you,its difficult to find a friend who will respect you and who will like you because of who you are inside,not because you have something he wants or because you are popular.You cant trust a stranger,because you dont know what he really thinks.Internet friends are nice too,but they cant be trusted.you can speak with them,but never belive them.You dont know if they are telling the truth or they are using you.So i have always believe that you should meet friends in the real life.After you have trusted someone,then you can really share things with him and appreciate his friendship.However you cant just know a person for a month and tell yourself that he is your true friend.If a friend tell you a lie sometimes is because he wants to protect you,but sometimes its the other way.So i think there are real friends,but they dont fall from the sky!Some day you will find a friend who you really trust and respect,and someone who cares about you and never lets you down!
Good luck if you are searching for that kind of friend and if you have already found him be happy!

Hi..I believe nowadays people are only concern with two things thats money & love. Also there are a lot of people who have different definitions of the word. Some people uses you, and so jealous. Thats something I guess I will never understand. I grew up the only child so I didn't know that a friendships were important because usually I was by myself. I finally grasps the concept about six months ago. I had always had a boyfriend and my life centered around his. Now I have matured a lot and know what I want..Right now I would give anything to meet a decent person cause I believe a woman's friendship is the best, especially if you both are connected. Hopefully oneday I can get to know that person and hopefully have a "true friendship" because I know the meaning and I want that more than anything! I think its not a bad idea to have a "cyber friendship" I met a girl over the internet and we had a great friendship until I found out she wasn't the kind of friend I needed in my life and she did something to me also. Its hard finding someone who will be there for you no matter what. I wouldn't rule out getting to know someone again on here, cause you have to go through a couple of bad apples until you reach the one that you will hold on to you know! I believe you can trust someone on here, because I am a down to earth honest person and I try not to question a person's lack of honesty, but its 50/50, especially on the internet. I just hope oneday I will find someone that I can be close to.. I am not getting any older you know! Even though I am only 23...
Great Question by the way!

You are describing friends as if they exist in a dream world, not this one.
No, you really can't trust any and every one that you wish to consider a friend.
I would guess that the number of human beings in this world that you can expect to trust, I mean really trust, can be counted on one hand, and in some cases that is still too many digits.
Human nature is basically very devious and self serving given the environment to develop those traits.
In contrast, human nature possesses depths of compassion and heroism that will always amaze us and usually displayed in adverse conditions.
The sad thing is that it is that the former is seen on a decreasing basis.
I believe that whatever a person chooses to be, compassionate or devious, is the deciding factor on an individual basis in answering your question.
The good news is that even though the good guys are at a disadvantage in number to the bad guys, we are still winning.

I think people are mixing up friend with acquaintance. A friend is there for you in the time of need. A friend is there when everybody else has left you. A friend would give his/her life for you. An acquaintance on the other hand, acts like a friend, but when the going is rough they seem to step away or runaway, lol. My wife and I are true friends, because we would give up each others life's to save the other. There is no truer Friend than God.

most times, one friend in the click will go off and get married and have babies, so it'll be hard for her to keep up with her friends wild party lifestyles. i'm sure cyber friends can be true and trustworthy, but i don't think i can give a cyber relationship 100% of anything. and last, like any other relationships, you have to work hard at preserving it; call your friend, ask them how they're doing, send a birthday card, set a date- girls night out, get together and do something you both enjoy. it'll be a great feeling to know that you both haven't drifted apart even with different lifestyles.

I think that you are right people are to caught up in getting rich to have friends and that is why our world is full of violence since nobody has friends they feel depressed and want to take there anger out on someone so they go and murder someone. i don't think you can trust cyber friends.

it's not bad to have a cyber friend but dont give your 100% trust with them because not all things will tell you.you dont have any idea what's their attitude and they can hide to you their real identity.

I am serious, I would like to be your friend, I don't have very many friends because of the same reason you are talking about.
