Friends? In real life? Do you mean apart from my stuffed animal collection?

Actually, I have a few acquaintances, but I only have two real friends. I've know them for more than ten years; we went to school together. As for what I would do for them, I agree with the above; show me the context!

Mustang - Of course it matters!

OK, I guess this concludes the research, I'm crazy...

In space no-one can hear you scream.
It is only you and the never-ending abyss of death

Geez, sw, and you needed the whole thread to prove that! *shakes head*
Your presence here is sufficient proof, what else do you need?

Wisdom comes with age. But sometimes age comes alone...

without a shadow of a doubt, I would be there with bells on (not literally obviously, that would be silly).

I'm not in the habit of letting my friends down and I'm not ready to start now. They're the most important thing in my life bar my health and my wife-to-be.

Spoken like a man who was given a reprieve on Stag Night and didn't end up miles away from home with no clothes or means to get back home.

I was thinking the same thing, Ed. Had Brother Gromit ended up in the far north of Scotland naked, manacled, lost, and penniless, I doubt he would feeling quite so comradely towards his "friends."

So, what happened in the end? Aside from you admiting your insanity? --- VH16

@indy/taw - you're probably right well they say that in times of suffering you find out who your friends are...and going on the size of my hangover, I've decided that I have no friends

zlo yea I know, but was referring to sth else Actually I should have said crazier than I though

Vh16 I wasnt in that particular situation
Why did I say I was crazy? Long story, I'll tell you the w/e

I doubt I would help out at all. Most people don't deserve to be treated nicely, including so-called friends. All of who would desert me on a whim. Such is life though, it's just a matter of getting what you want from people before they can take what they want from you.

People have it all wrong these days, instead of discriminating and hating others for being black or ugly, we should practise fairness and hate every living thing equally.

I guess I owe an explanation still, dunno to who tho
I was just wondering, I will always doing everything I can to help my friends and be there for them. Lately I've been wondering if I'm crazy doing it, because all around I only see ppl who first look after themselves, no -one will help their friends if it means that they have to disadvantage themselves, if it means discomfort for them they simply won't help. So I was wondering if there were other ppl who would always help their friends, even tho it would mean that the only thing they get back is troubel/bad experience.
I mean for me it feels as if everyone just want to satisfie themselves and screw the rest, thats how I experience it in anyway. Take for example out prom now(Yes the prom again so bite me)
We recently found out that only 4 couples can sit at a table, I have to good friends, the one I didnt expect to sit at out table becus of reasons not open for discussion, me and the other would have sit together. Then we found out about the 4 couples at a table. Now another friend wants to go with this friends of mines brother, and this friend will then ask her bro's friend, so the\se two has to sit at the same table, and the other friend as two other friends, guess who gets bumped out and is left without a place to sit

Someone once said, "You have recieved free, give freely". If you are giving to someone who recievs but does not give to others, not nessisarily returning to you, but gives to others, then you can use wisdom and watch what you give them from then on. Anothe phrase is, "cast your pearls not before swine for they will trample them and then turn and attack you, This does not mean don't give , but use wisdom again in what you give and who too. "Be a wise steward of your things and time", is the best answer of all.

amen to that fd.

@Finalday: Are you ALWAYS in a philisophical mood, or something?
