do you have a friend like this?

my only friends are the virtual ones here and I feel very lucky to have such kind crazy friends xx

Ohhh yes I have plenty of these kind of friends   

I'm pretty laid back.. We just speak when we speak

I've got friends like this too!

Yup here too but I just dont bother after a while   

Sure have.

I did, now i dont   

Not really - I find I can go ages without speaking to someone but when we eventually meet up its just the same - to me that is what I class as a real friend

not really

No.. I have friends that can be missing for years then just show up and it's like we talked yesterday

i wouldn't slass that as a frined if someone pop after years and wanted to talk i tell him to * off   and go an talk to some one who cares

I'm more laid back... True friends stick around and it doesn't really matter if you see them every month, they are still friends. Some of my closest friends I don't see more than twice a year but we know we are there for each other if needs be.

Some friends I see more than twice a week wouldn't be there if I needed them. True friends will always be there

I've got friends like that as well. With me being military and everyone moving every couple of years it's hard to stay in contact.

my mates fish (trouty), bop and mogy(ginger ninja) he used to live me like 24 /7 we not like that anymore but they text me now and then and phone me now and then i would class he a good friend, other friends who used to hang around me they dont text or phone anymore i get a hello how sam or xena after so long i just blank them!!

Everyone is different but for me if I am close to someone it doesn't matter how long it's been since we talked. I had a good friend that I though of as a little sister. We didn't talk for years but she was having a rough time so I was on a plane the same day to support her.

yea wee all differnet and have our ways of classing people friends or not

That being said I can count the people I consider true friends on my fingers.

Ditto

You will always know the friends that are true. Mine have all moved out of London but we have great times when we do meet up. 

As you know, I have a very close friend that is going through a very tough time just now and I had to get the first flight I could. The family were just so pleased that I was there, I didn't really do much but gave the rest of the family a breather.

Just wish I could do more  

Oftentimes just being there is enough

Ahhh the smiles were enough for me. I should be able to get out again in sept.

With some luck we might be able to recreate some adventures too.

Hope it works out for you

I did... decided they weren't friends after all, it shouldn't have to be hard work!

No really i found out the hard way who was there a time i needed them the most.
