Personal Essay : Personal Narrative Of Friendship

It is important to choose the right friends, good friends can take you wherever you want to go in life, and the wrong friends can be a disastrous decision. A quote from The Pact sums this up nicely, “Friendship can lift you up, strengthen and empower you, or break you down, weaken and defeat you.” (32) This is why it is so important to surround yourself with positive people, and

First and foremost, when a person is a true friend, he or she doesn't ever say, ¨Sorry, I can't¨ or ¨Maybe next time.¨ a true friend is one that when you feel depressed, he or she is already at your door to see what is wrong. Any person that knows about true friendship should know that betrayal is never acceptable. True friendship means to share, give and, stay when it's most needed.

“Keep your friends close and your enemies closer,” is a universal truism throughout our society, that has been said an infinity amount of times. Every single person in your life is there for a certain reason. If they aren’t getting want they want from you then they have no reason for sticking around. They’re always around when they need something from you, but when you need them, “BAM!” they are gone!

I do not consider myself to be anybody’s best friend. While I do have many friends that I consider myself to be close with (and I’d like to believe they opposite is true), the school year has just started and many friendships that existed last year may or may not fade away as time passes by. This is because friendships are mainly built on conversations shared daily, whether they be in the classroom or outside on social media. Even if one person is reluctant to hold a conversation, then the bonds of friendship will slowly and steadily break apart due to the lack of sustained interaction on a daily basis. Communication is paramount to ensuring that a relationship is maintained. In my case, I do not believe I interact with anyone on a daily basis enough to be considered “best friends.” Sure, I would consider many people I’m acquainted with good friends, but that is the extent of our friendship. On the other hand, I have several good friends because we have relatively good chemistry. Successful interaction with one another has led to a mutual desire to sustain our friendships.

Experiences in life give us wisdom on what to expect and how to act in future circumstances. This friendship has impacted me because I regret opening up to people who don’t deserve me like that. It has taught me that even though people may be there for some things, they aren’t necessarily going to be there for the whole

Friendship is a key aspect of life. They are your support system, who you go to in time of need, who you share memories with that can last a lifetime. In today’s society, many friendships are broken up between friends because of trust issues, or the lack of positivity that may be spread through the group.

A friend who betrays is far worse than an enemy who hates. Enemies let people know they hate them but a friend who betrays hated from the start. Betrayal from a friend is unexpected. One day they are best buddies and the next they are each other's worst enemies. A friend once had a best friend, they did everything together. Then one day her “best friend”

Best friends are important in our ability to develop healthy relationships with someone close and with whom we can confide. It is equally crucial to be able to recognize an arch enemy who causes harm to others and seeks to destroy friendships. An arch enemy may be harmful to all types of relationships including those involving family. This may due to the enemy being unhappy with some harm that was caused, and a desire to seek revenge. It is best to keep friends close and enemies closer, while learning to recognize and forgive the transgressions of arch enemies.

Around the age of 10, we started getting very involved with school sports. She lived in Byrdstown and found her gift which was cheering, of course mine was Basketball. As time went on, we only got to see each other at basketball games and special occasions. But, we always knew that we would be best friends forever.

"Life without a friend is like death without a witness." -Spanish Proverb. We all have friends, different people have different tastes and temperaments and hence make different types of friends. They tend to bond with some and stay away from some. With time and growing trust, some people get really close to each other and remain true friends. They stand up for each other in times of need and provide full support when you lose confidence in yourself. However, every friend is not the same type. One might have more close friends than acquiantenaces, while others might have more acquaintenaces than close friends, but either way, majority of people that develop great friendships either   fall into one of the

Best friends get you through a lot. Friendship isn't about whom you have known the longest... It's about who came, and never left your side...

Through my experiences I have come to realize that there are basically three types of friends a person can have. There are friends that I call “sometimes” friends, these people appear to be your friend but only when you are face to face with them, and when you are not around them they act more like a foe. They are often referred to as two faced or a back stabber. These types of friends are not very reliable nor should they be trusted. Another type of friend a person can have, and the best kind, is a “true” friend. A true friend is someone you know you can always trust and rely on no matter what. The last type of friend is the “acquaintance”. These are the type of friends that you do not necessarily hate, but at the same time you do

As we grow older, we meet new people and make new friendships. Out of all the people you meet there is always that one friend that you click with the most. That being said a best friend is someone you look out for and care for like sibling. As we grow older we have a perception of growing old and having your best friend by your side, but I came to the realization one morning that it is not true. I found out my childhood best friend past away from a drug overdose.

When you were still in the kindergarten, friends were the people who romped about with you, played mischievous tricks upon everyone. When you were getting bigger, perhaps at primary school, friends were the people who helped you in your homework, who sung with you at the school choir. Had you forgotten them? Had you betrayed them? Are you a good friend to your friends? A true friend would always tell you the truth, be you best partner when you need him, most of all, support you.
