Culture club said it best! Do you really want to hurt me?A friend is someone you hold dear: Someone who is always there, through thick and thin; Someone who is only a phone call away.A friend is someone you can always rely on: Someone who is there to share your thoughts with; Someone to listen, no matter the subject.A friend is someone you can feel comfortable with: Someone you can sit silently beside, without conversation; Someone you do not need to fill the quiet moments with.A friend is someone you can trust: Someone who will guard your deepest secrets; Someone who will never let you down. A friend is someone who is not judgmental: Someone who will gently offer advice and opinions, Yet, someone who is not overbearing or critical.A friend is someone who can keep you grounded: Someone who can help you see through your obstacles; Someone to shoulder you through life's trials.A friend is someone who shares unconditionally: Someone to laugh and to cry with; Someone to lean on, through both the good and the bad.A friend is someone you choose wisely, For a friend is your own mirrored image: Someone to compliment your own self; Someone who indicates who you are as a person.A friend.... is what you are to me.
