Truly, everybody need friends! There is no disputing the facts that some friends are closer than one’s family and not forgetting that they (friends) have also contributed positively to someone’s success in life even more than what many of our parents, siblings, cousins, nephews, nieces, aunts and uncles have done. It must also be noted that the current predicaments most of us find ourselves in was as a result of advises we buy from our friends right from; teenage pregnancies, secret cult memberships, armed robberies, kidnappings, divorces, ritual practices, fraudulent practices, drunkenness, womanizing, abortions and other vices you can imagine!

The truth is, we cannot do without friends, because no man is an Island! The question is, how do you choose your friends? What are those qualities you are expecting to see in your friends? How many friends are enough at a time? Do you revere your friends’ advices above your parent’s? Considering all these questions, you should be able to identify between true friends and the fake ones. Remember, when everything is smooth with you, they are always many but when the table turns you are on your own, except for very few ones (mostly in rare cases) who will still stick with you!

Beware, friends will either make or mar you, choose them carefully!
