Making Friends is a common occurrence to human being and our social lives. As humans, we need friends. We need people to share feelings, have conversations, and to be part of our social networks.

Friends are there for us when we need them and we’re there for them. Good friends are always there for us and bring out the best in us.

Once they didn’t need it anymore, they revealed their true colors.

It is extremely important to choose your friends wisely, and not just because they provide you a service.

True friends should be lively, supportive, uplifting, and bring out the best in you. They should appreciate the real you and love your personality. And you should provide that same support as well.

People like that are advantage takers; they are friends so they can study with you, gain from you, and diss you afterwards and act like they never knew you.
