Sometimes, not everyone is a good apple in the batch. For those of us who have best friends, what are they like?
They are fun to be around, maybe they're even caring or energetic. Although they may have nice personalities, how do you know that they're your true friends?
Traits of True Friends:
Connection
Our thought process
- Support you (they clap for you when you do something great, they do not get jealous)
- Honest with you (They do not lie to you, or backstab you)
- Do not judge you
Overwhelmed
Difficult circumstances
- Care about you (They are there when you may not feel good, or they look out for you when you are sick)
-They do not try to change who you are
How to help
Developing good self-reflection skills
-They are Reliable (Always there for you when you need it)
-They respect your boundaries
-They are trustworthy (You can tell them your secrets without worry)
If your friend is constantly putting you in harm's way or they do not think about your safety, this is not a true friend, be smart about who your pals are!
A person who is not your true friend, will do the opposite of the traits listed
