Good Friends

What makes a good friend? I believe that a good friend is respectful, supportive and honest. These are important because it means that you and your friend care about each other.

One of the most important qualities in a good friend is honesty. Honesty is very important in a friendship because if you are honest with your friend then they will trust you and they will know when to believe you. Also being honest means that you are being a very supportive friend.

Supporting a friend is very important because it means that you can both help each other through a tough time or just be there for each other when you or your friend doesn’t understand something you are trying to work out. If you are being supportive it means that you help them to try and figure out something that they really don’t understand. Also say something that will encourage them not put them down.

Be honest with each other when you need to tell them something.  Not judging your friend is good because it means that you aren’t be hurtful to their feelings and they won’t be hurtful to you.

A friend liking you for you is important too.  If your friend likes you for you then it means that you don’t have to act like someone you’re not someone you’re not.

A good friend is someone who tells you the truth, supports you through tough times and respects you.
