Is it good to depend too much on ur friend (for anything) ??

Question

We all hve a friend or someone to share things with.Ofcourse we trust them thts y we call them a Friend. But how far is it feasible or good to depend on ur friend??Do u share everythng (every matter, personal too) with him/her ?

Answer 1

My best friend and I have been tight like that since we were 16. We are well into our 30's now. We always shared stuff, even cars... (not boys!!!) It was awesome! Even though we live far away from one another, we still have a friendship that's like two sisters. I always turned to her to bring me back down to earth when I would go off the deep end on things... I don't think it should ever have a limit, just maybe when it comes down to boyfriends... I draw the line with sharing there! :)

Good Luck to you!

Answer 2

I once had a friend say to me, "friends tell each other everything." She was very wrong. It is not a good idea for even the best of friends to tell each other every intimate detail of their lives. In fact, it can be downright dangerous, especially if you still live at home, don't have a decent job, etc. By the way, that friend I spoke of abandonned me after 18 years of friendship. Just remember this: (1) friendships change over time (from one type of friendship to another); (2) there's a difference between a close friend and a casual one; (3) some friends you do things with; others you confide in; and (4) some things you KEEP TO YOURSELF.

Answer 3

I agree with u, but it's sometimes best to keep things to urself and it's alright to share things, but like anything else there are limits.

There are just somethings thats best kept unsaid, because it's somethings others may not understand or need to know for many reasons.

Yes friends are a blessing, but friends can also be too judgemental and for that u may want to not cross theat line.

I say that if ur friends then do the fun things friends do u can tell each other things but know ur limits and respect each when it comes to not wanting the other to know too much on some things u really rather not talk about.

I'm curious about your use of the word "depend." You should be able to depend on your friend to be on time. You should be able to depend on your friend to keep your confidences. Just as the friend should be able to depend on you. But to share everything? Your friend has a personal life, just as you do. Some things, however, should remain personal. If you both are comfortable discussing personal, private matters, then fine. But don't dump all your personal problems on your friend. That can quickly sour a relationship.

Answer 5

That depends on how good of a friend he/she is. How established is the trust? Have you known her for a long time? Has she ever betrayed you? I have a friend who has been with me most of my life and she knows everything-i do mean everything. However I also have friends that have never betrayed me but I havent known very long so I dont share anything that I wouldnt want the general public to know-coz thats where it might end up.

Answer 6

your friend may very well be a quality person, but remember that no one will solve ur problems, no matter how much they love u - it's best to depend on nobody but urself ... and when it comes to trusting someone, it's best to be cautious....and besides there are things u keep to urself...

Answer 7

It is best to depend on yourself. However, you need to depend on others in your daily life matters. Those who prove depedable are real friends. Still try not to depend unless it is unavidable.

Answer 8

well it can become an unhealthy balance if boundries arent respected or developed. every friendship is different, so only you can guage how much is too much or too little... it takes some time to figure out, but it is worth it...

Answer 9

It isn't good to depend on anyone too much.
