Friends to me should have your back for anything. They should be there for you, willing to talk if you have a problem, hang out with you.

The list of what friends have is a long list, but thats what my friends have.

Friends are for entertainment and support, without friends people would be bored a lot. They are also there to help you when you need it, it's always good to have friends tongue.gif

A friend is someone who will never leave your side, especially when you're glued to the ground, or stuck to a pole. Read this

WORD HISTORY  A friend is a lover, literally. The relationship between Latin amīcus “friend” and amō “I love” is clear, as is the relationship between Greek philos “friend” and phileō “I love.” In English, though, we have to go back a millennium before we see the verb related to friend. At that time, frēond, the Old English word for “friend,” was simply the present participle of the verb frēon, “to love.” The Germanic root behind this verb is *frī–, which meant “to like, love, be friendly to.” Closely linked to these concepts is that of “peace,” and in fact Germanic made a noun from this root, *frithu–, meaning exactly that. Ultimately descended from this noun are the personal names Frederick, “peaceful ruler,” and Siegfried, ”victory peace.” The root also shows up in the name of the Germanic deity Frigg, the goddess of love, who lives on today in the word Friday, “day of Frigg,” from an ancient translation of Latin Veneris diēs, “day of Venus.”

Friends are to hang out with, and also someone to talk with like discuss problems with or something. Everyone has a friend, Humanity will just die out without having people to be friends with each other. Think about history, every famous person had friends. Friends are usually the people who enourges people. And also, friends can also help pervent sucides. People who don't have friends sometimes ends up doing sucides

I think there are only two possible ways not to have friends:

1) If you are an extremely pessimistic dude who does not socialize at all, not make any eye contact, be rude, and is crazy.
2) You are the only human living on Earth.


There might be more but that's what i can only think of right now

I think some people are just naturally reclusive, I know a few people like that at school, but they aren't asses or anything, they are actually nice to talk to. They just aren't like the center of attention or anything, but you can have pretty interesting conversations with them.

Man, I barely know anyone like that. Everyone at my school starves for attention. Middle school drama with friends is the worst ever. Only a few people are decent enough to be serious to.

Same here parthx, almost all the other kids in my grade are extremely loud and boisterous, most of them won't read more than 400 pages every year, while myself and a few others read something around 10000 pages, if not more. Not that reading is some kind of guarantee that people are reclusive like devilesk mentioned, it just makes it more likely that they are. It seems that most middle schoolers are far too busy trying to impress the opposite sex to even consider being silent for a single moment. And their taste sucks, all the girls at my school except for maybe 3 are incredibly stupid, like "oh, whats a variable", or "Don't use such big words, they scare me, keep it to under 5 letter words".

Young people now days are just getting stranger, and stranger.... Back in the day when I was in middle school, I only had five to six close friends. That's all I needed. I didn't care if I impressed the other sex, it didn't matter to me. There was no point (cause at the time I was just a little, overweight fat kid that no chicks wanted to like)

Now days though, it's different (cause i'm older, more mature, and waaaaaaaaaaaay better looking then I was back in middle school)

Like in the Emotional Pain thread, it talks about some uses for friends. Friends (true friends) are there to help you out/through problems you have with your everyday life.

I blame all the pop culture they're fed by their TVs for messing up middle schoolers (I for one havn't watched any more TV than an episode or 2 of star trek for over a year, call me a nerd) But I really think that it is the TV, especially when they watch stuff on MTV, or reality TV.

*warhammer40000 skips over all of the Untrue crap and says

A friend is someone you can be with that you can share fun times with. Same interests... That actually doesnt have to be true all of the way. Like... You could be friends with someone who likes basketball and baseball, and you like computer games. You guys could share these interests with each other once and awhile. But he could juust be your school-friend, who you talk with at lunch, even though you dont play sports.

This is what you get from typing a paragraph with fast-tempod Music on.

Yes, I agree with that. I like computer games and my friend likes video games.

Whoever said my friend's family was dysfunctional, you were partly correct.

I can agree with all these posts, but I can defineately say that the "Popular' (Yeah right! lmfao.gif ) kids are like
"DUDE STOP USING BIG WORDS THEY CONFUSE ME" yet they treat you like dirt five minutes later.

About the reading:
Why don't people like to read?
I mean, if you don't like to read, how are you using Staredit's forums? I mean, who posts with out reading the posts before it?
(War, put your hand down. Joking.)
Yeah, friends should be able to discuss serously with you.

You hit the mark with that one Devilisk, I mean I've been kinda slamming warhammer40000 this whole topic but it's all in good taste.

Kinda like calling my old friend Gp3215 censored.gif pride, just because he hated it. Or maybe not...

ADDITION:
woa I didn't know the word before pride was censored...
use your head what "gp" could possibly stand for.

Yoshi censored thart rescently, he said in a topic. We keep arguing with him about how stupid it is, and he uncensored some. Let's see if G-ay is still censored. censored.gif .


Anyway, friends dont call you up and call you a "bundle of sticks..." Whatever your saying, thats too specific. Anyway, true friends should take when you dont want them over... But friends should tell you when your getting annoying too.
Well, tell me if im missing something, im listening to music again.
