What does it take for a person to find a good friend that won't betrayed you?

Question

In these and times you only find people that are imitators who takes someone persona and use it to build themselves to hurt someone's reputation.

Answer 1

I understand this question well.....since these thoughts trouble me also. I just recently moved over 500 miles from my Best Friend of almost 15 years.....Including my family. I put all my faith in my husband of nearly 1 year and moved with him to his home state.

The only thing I can think of to tell you and myself is that we need to open up to opportunity. We have to "allow" ourselves to trust other people...(which is a really brave thing to do) and its not simple nor easy.

At first I wondered "how" I was going to meet anyone. But I know through work and possibly getting involved in some other activities that I enjoy doing that I will meet people that have the same interests. There is always the possibility that I will meet someone special enough for me to make room for in my life and in my heart. And I hope that if and when I do meet her/him that they will be as genuine as I am...I have to believe that.

I wish you and everyone else out there reading this that they find someone to share with. Laughter, good times, and new experiences and new memories.

Good Luck ^.^

Answer 2

I have found that 98% of my friends have at one point betrayed me to the point where the friendship should end. but I find myself being the better friend by helping them realize they were in the wrong. Once I have a friend they are my friend for life no matter what they do. (I guess I have a hard time letting people go huh?)

Answer 3

In order to find a true blue friend you have to be one first. If your character is stong and upright that will be the type of person you will attract as friends. You wouldn't be looking for cheaters or criminals to be good friends. Also, any one with a drug abuse problem or a drinking problem is not capable of being a tue friend. This may sound harsh and I apologize for that; however, "it takes one to know one" and "If they'll do it for you - they'll do it to you" are old adages for a very good reason.

Answer 4

Be a friend yourself! I had that happen to me before back then, i was like the gir everyone wanted to be and everyone thought i lived the perfect life, little did they know. I was like "plastic" a barbie, all the girls wanted to act like me, look like me and hang out with me. I was really nice to many girls and found out in return they we're jealous of me and was trying to build themselves off of me. Of course it didn't work because everyone knew how i really was thuogh, luckily because I was always there for her and treated her great too.
Before getting close to someone, just be a friend and if they start telling you personal things about them and not talk S#@$ about others then you'll know they're real and not trying to be someone they really aren't. Just be careful about who you trust and what you tell them.

Answer 5

Dude I hope your a girl cause you sound like a female. Try manning up and having some balls. You are who you are and if they wanna copy you then who cares. Imitation is flattery. And if they are trying to hurt your rep then thats a little something called competition. The best reaction to competition is to try to win. In a nut shell my advice to you is to man up and stop whining or I'll put my foot in your *** you wussy.

Answer 6

It takes a lifetime of looking for the right things in people and a lot of luck.
