We obviously are not looking in the right places!!! Your true friends are out there...but "what ye sow, ye shall reap" (with apologies to the original author) so if you are looking in the wrong places then you will never find them!

Look at what defines "friend" to you. True friends are those who sincerely have your best interests in mind. Does not mean you both agree on what YOUR best interests are, but they are typically always looking to be good to you.

These people aren't always the brightest, or best looking, or wealthiest, or most sharply dressed; sometimes they are, but in any case they are always there if you need them.

Again, your answer may lie in your perceptions of what constitutes a friend. Find a peaceful place, take some time and think your way through previous experiences with "friends" that led you to ask this question. You may find your answer there. Good luck, I hope you find your answer right away!

2Timothy 3:1-5 tells the answer to this question:" But know this, that in the last days critical times hard to deal with will be here. For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, self-assuming, haughty, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, disloyal, having no natural affection, not open to any agreement, slanderers, without self-control, fierce, without love of goodness, betrayers, headstrong, puffed up [with pride], lovers of pleasures rather than lovers of God, having a form of godly devotion but proving false to its power; and from these turn away." Despite this it is still possible to find true friends. It just takes a little more effort to take the time to find out what a person is really like before making him a close friend.

bcuz the world is becoming more selfish,self centered,money-minded and that is to only a few of the things that makes finding a true friend now-a-days
also
ppl are becoming to materialistic
and they find friends base on ur social status(like if u are popular or not)or by ur wealth
hardly will u find one that does not judge u
and that does not only befriend u becuz of a gain
but if u do u should cherish it
coz now-a-days true friends dun come by that much

Because the world is corrupt and evil. People look out for their own interests and desires. Gossip between friends has become more common. It is extremely difficult to find true friend who will stick with you and I've had one or two in my life. Keep looking for that one true firend you can always lean on. When you find them it will be worth it.

Possibly it is because the friends are our own reflections. If you are dirty,unkempt or slouching you can hardly expect your reflection to improve your image. But there are only a few who ,like Oliver Chromwell, had the frankness to tell the artist to pain him as he was.We don't tell even to our own selves but surruptonsly suggest that we are unique. Friendship is not a one-way traffic.You have mistakenly thought so. Walk boldly into this lane. It may appear a little narrow but it opened up further on to become a royal road.Love and be loved. Be a friend and get a friend.

no, its not true that u could not find true friends nowadays.Its a matter of adjustment towards each other. Both should make extra effort to maintain friendship. I insist there is still true frienship existing. Others diminish friendships because they only think of themselves regardless if their friend is hurt or overstepped.

It depends on ur state of mind. If you are truthful, empathic state of mind, in a non- trivial location, where u can find people of non-trivial character (unlike bar, pub, drug joint, new york times square or such rif raff places) you will find good people. They may not make u friends if you are having negative thinking and your mind is corrupted. More than 50% of people are good people.

your question saddened me. brought forth the memories of a friend who has distanced herself from me and another of our best friend because of a guy- whom shes getting engaged to soon. she was my best friend-and for 10 years, we told each other we would be true friends- unlike the rest of our friends.

we failed. by love.
but me and my another best friend are holding on still, in spite of this new setback. it made us realise what we actually are. and hope that through all the **** that Life throw at us, we can still be true friends who are there for each other.

its a matter of mutuality and effort. no one hand can clap on its own.

Because everyone nowadays only looks out for number one. everyone will screw their best friend over if it would benefit their needs.
