Friends Fact No. 1

Spending time with them, having deep talks with them, and experiencing things together are all part of getting to know your friends. You can learn about someone's values, interests, and degree of trust and support by seeing how they interact with others. Real friends are those who consistently demonstrate their concern, loyalty, and understanding, who are by your side through good times and bad, who really rejoice with you when you succeed, and who support you through difficult times. Such friendships require time and reciprocal effort to develop, and they are marked by openness, sympathy, and a deep sense of regard for one another.
