Best Friends Forever
You've probably heard the saying, "To make a friend, you have to be a friend." But have you ever thought about what it takes to be a great friend? Think of your best friend. What makes you get along so well with her? Do you have a lot in common? Does she always make you laugh? Is she always there for you when you're having a bad day?
If the saying is right, the things that make your BFF so much fun to be around are the things you should keep in mind so you can make (and keep) friends.
Tell us what qualities you appreciate most in your friends. And be sure to return the favor!

My Best Friends
I have two best friends- my twin sister and my friend. If I had to choose one quality that I appreciate most about each of them, it would be understanding for my sister and funny for my friend. I like my understanding sister because she is going through the exact same things I’m going through. She’s always there to talk to me, agree with me, whatever. I know lots of girls feel like they have no one to talk to- I don’t have that problem! My funny friend is really awesome too, because she can cheer me up whenever. She is always ready with a joke or the perfect hilarious story to laugh all my sadness away!Shes perfect!
even tho its hard getting compared to her through sports or grades because shes better, our friendship works because we have weaknesses that only each other know because when one person atacks the weakness, the other one is there to catch the fall!Best Friends Are:
To me, best friends aren’t just people you hang out with at school. They aren’t just people you look at for the first time and say “she is gonna be my B.F.F!”.Best friends are people you love to hang out with. You talk to them on the bus, invite them over after school, tell them who you are secretly crushing on and sometimes just silly secrets. You can trust them and they always make you laugh! You know they are a true friend when you feel like you entered some new world when you talk to each other. It doesn’t matter if you just met them at your new school or you were born beside eachother and have been friends ever since, all that matters is that you have a best friend who is always there for you!BFFS [ 2 of them]
i have two of my friends that i have beenfriend with them for 2 years now but im more friends with one of them but iv known 1 for way longer and she dosnet hang out with me that long ? what do you think i doLove my Best Friends 4ever!!!
I have more than one BFF, infact I have quite a few. I love all my Best Friends since each one is different and I can go to them when ever I need help. I also have tons of fun with thim. But in particular I have 2 major BFF’s. All three of us hav so much fun together, even if we’re in someplace boring. We make something that is boring look fun. But not only are they so much fun to be with they are also the most trustworthy friends I have. I think one some of the most important qualitites in a best friend is trust and honesty. Lucky for me, my friendship is full of it. :) It’s almost like we were meant to be Best Friends 4ever.buddies!
my freinds always stay together. I’m always at least with one of them…either its a sleepover or off to the mall. This summer we went to birthday parties and to the beach and even to marthars vieyard in Massachusetts…you always have fun with your buddies!!!Completely and utterly have nothing in common
my friends and I have completely nothing in common and yet we manage to have some great times together! I don’t think it matters what you have common i think it only matters what you think of each other, and if you’re loyal.SOMEONE HELP??!! PLZ!
Please help!!! (its summer) my best friend hung out with me all summer until now, shes been hanging out with my other friend alot and not even talkin to me! I dont think i did anything mean to her, and when i try to call, text, aim, her she doesnt reply back! I asked my other friend if shes talked to My best friend and she said they were hanging out all week!!!!! Im scared that i will loose my best friend forever and my other friend! Any tips?!( and to make it even worse my other friend and best friend are in the same class this year and im not!!) Plz plz plz plz help!!!When I first went into 6th
When I first went into 6th grade all my friends were in the same group and I was in the other one. They made a new friend and suddenly they became popular and I didn’t. It can be hard, but make sure your friends are still letting you be who YOU want to be. But make sure you’re not jumping to conclusions - maybe your friend just hasn’t gotten on the computer in a while or it broke or something. Don’t worry!Ask Ali
She will help. And remember. If they’re real friends, they won’t leave you in the dust. Keep trying to talk to her. Think of reasons why she might be doing this. Hope I Helped!Understanding
to make a friend you really have to make sure that she understands you. Because seriously you don’t have to be someone else to make friends.what i like bout my firends
all my friends are always honest with me. they would do anything to keep me safe and outta troubleLoyalty
The greatest friend is the one who loves you no matter what, listens to your problems without getting bored, keeps your secrets, is always trying to talk you out of doing bad things, and encourages you that you have the ability to accomplish anything.Love
To have a best friend, you need to meet someone who is just a crazy as you are, can finish your sentences and love you for who you are.BFF
My best friend is so awesome! She is always there for me when I am having a bad day! She knows exxactly how to cheer me up! She can make me laugh too. We both love to laugh and I am glad that we both have that in common! My BFF will always be my BFF!Bestie
My best friend and i are so much alike! we wear the same clothes (that doesnt bother me at all), like the same things, and are equally random. we have these “silent conversations” which are when we dont talk, we can tell wats going on in our minds. we can think of something that happened a month ago and still be laughing about it today! i love my best friend… she’s more than a friend, she’s like family. luv ya alli XOXOGuy BFFs
My friend is a guy. With guys, you don’t have to worry about backstabbing, lying, or drama. It’s just laughing and having fun!: )
but you do have to worry about friendships turning into relationships!The Thing I admire the most in a friend
Though there are a lot of things I admire about all my friends, I find that the thing I love the most is that trait in a friend that makes you grow. But not “grow” like how you might be taller than her the next summer or anything, but I mean ‘grow’ like when you’re friend pushes you to your limits so you can follow your dreams, accomplish what you’re meant to accomplish, and achieve greatness. :)Best Friend
Back in September I got surgery on my back. I was out of school for 5 weeks in order to recover. My best friend made sure to call me every night so I wouldn’t be lonely.yea, i saw this online school
yea, i saw this online school program that I wanna do. The thing is their is nothing really to talk about anymore!!!! i dont do sports, i try to make friends but i know im just gonna keep getting hurtdon't
don’t run away from problems, though.BFFLS FOR LIFE!
My best friend and I have been with eachother for almost 5 years! We always protect eachother through thick and thin. We stay friends with eachother no matter what even if we like the same crushes or get into small fights. She is my best friend in the world and I hope that we will be like the way we are forever!bff
my bff rocks she is the best bff ever and we knew each other since nursery and we know each others likes and dislikesBFF's
Hello everyone,well I agree BFF’s help you alot sometimes but when they break your trust which they sometimes do it is the worst feeling ever. One day I told my BFF my secret and she told the whole class my secret. I felt the tears boiling in my eyes and my BFF saw it and she started telling the whole class “oh,look at that Ms.Perfect, she’s crying”? Then everyone started laughing and calling me Mrs.Perfect to Mrs.Cry . I went to her the next day and she said oh,Dakota if you wanna be my friend then you have to me mine and my other friends’ servant,and from that day on I was her servant. I hope you don’t feel bad for me which you probaly are for.Bye-bye.Stand up!
Yes, I do feel bad for you, but you don’t have to let your friend treat you like that! Thats just mean!4 real
did that really happen? ok sorry i still do feel bad 4 u:(Friends
my BFF is funny and nice but a litttle bit pushy. how can i get her 2 stop.Sometimes people are natural
Sometimes people are natural born leaders, so if she’s bossy, tell her and remind her nicely and maybe she can break the habit.Tell her
Tell her how you feel! Tell her she can be a little pushy and to be a little nicer. I hope i helped!!! -xOxOAlainaXoXomy bff lives so far away!!
I live in MD, my bestie is in NC, i c her like 1 or 2 times a year :( I have friends here but they arent good ones I wouldnt call them real true friends. I can’t actually seem 2 find one. I’ve been looking for a real friend since maybe i was 5 or something, ive been fooled by fakes. Im keeping my head up high and being positive but it’s not looking good 4 me. It seems like nobody wants 2 be around me or anything, i want 2 be homeschooled sooo bad!!!! but my parents say that like they arent professional homeschool teachers, do u need a teachers cirtificate 2 teach homeschool or somethin??? Anyways, my “friends” barley talk 2 me, treat other friends better, and sometimes act like they dont want me in their life. Last year was my first yr. of high school and i made 2 friends, who one i barley talk 2 the other im not friends with anymore cause she was a bad friend, i was basically alone. I just know i will end up being hurt by fakes that i dont get involved in anything or socialise reallyFriends
It’s OK to have a BFF that lives far away. Good things come out of that. You can tell her secrets without having everyone fnd out, you can trade stories about what happens around your town and you can visit each other’s favorite places in your town when you visit her or she visits you. Also… I am homeschooled and no, your parents do not have to be professional teachers. You could sign up for an online school which is very helpful and you have teachers for you classes. Join a sport or club around where you live and meet new people outside of your school. Invite a few over to your house and to go skating or something. Compare what you have in common and trade phone numbers. Making friends isn’t as hard as it seems, just be yourself. I hope I helped. Come to me if you need more advice.I Love My BFF!
I have known my Bff since Kindergarden and we can read minds We are very good friends.MY BFF IS TOTALLY AWESOME!!!!
I’ve known my best friend since we were babies, and she finishes my sentences, she knows me more than any of my friends, and she understands my problems and thoughts. She’s the sister I never had. I LUV HER!!!!<3<3<3<3My BFF
I only have one bff and a few friends, and most of the time we may not have the same opinion or know what the others thinking, but everything always works out one way or any other and over time I’ve noticed some of my friends are not what they used to be meaning they are that friendly, but my bff has never changed who she is, so I know that loyal and being yourself is something I look to in a friend.BFF
my friends are awesome!! they stand by me no matter what i do.Listen!
I talk alot. I somtimes even get in trouble in school for talking so much! ( Which is really weird that I even get in troble because I am a straght A student!!) But I also have really good listening skills. las year I noticed that my conversaysions with my friends go like this; Me,me,me,me, friend,me,me,me,me,me,me, friend. pay attention to how much you are talking, and make sure you listen!I love to hang with my

MAKE NEW/MORE FRIENDS!!!i understand

One of my BFFLs is in camp almost all summer and my other BFFL is in Connecticut. I constantly text the friend in Connecticut but I can’t text the one in camp because she’s in camp. The good news is that they are both on DG! Are your friends at a sleep away camp or a day camp? My friend is at a day camp. Are all your friends in camp? If not hang out with the ones not in camp. Hope I Helped! LOLHi!
Maybe you could join some of the camps that they’re in. Then, you could spend more time with them. And, if you can’t go to the camps, you guys could write to each other, then, instead of looking forward to hanging out with them, you could look forward to getting a letter they send you. ~AwesomeMe ♥Friends
In a good friend i would want someone who in caring smart happy a Listener and some one who makes me laugh Friends will always be there for you.Friends
In a i would want someone who listener and someone who is smart and someone who makes me laugh!To be a good friend
To be a good friend, you have to show her who you really are. It will make your friendship easier and y’all can do things that you really like. Second, you have to show her (or him!) the qualities of being a good friend, like being a good listener, being polite, caring, funny, and non-dramatic. Just show him or her that you are BFF material!BFFL Best Freinds For Life
I have the perfect bffl she is so nice, she is also fun and not mean she always stands up like one time I was walking into the cafetria and I steped in this first grades barf/puke/throwup it was so decustingtwin BFF!
my BFF are like sisters, we’re alike in every way! we even look alike. people say that we’re long lost twins as a joke. i’m only 8 days older than her too. the best thing about her is that we’re just alike so she understands me!REAL twins
haha, my best friend is actually my twin! we call each other “Best Twins Forever”….or BTFs!Best friends!
We always get along together with no fights. We always stand up for each other when we are getting bullied. We are different in age, though. Some of my best friends are the same age as me. We also have some things in common. Like going shopping, swimming, singing, dancing, writing, reading, and a lot more! We always laugh and share stuff together,=. They are my bestest friends ever!Friends
In my friends I look for someone who is beautiful…on the inside. Everyone is beautiful thats true but I look for a close friend who shows that they are beautiful, who are confident of themselves and others, and who are compassionate and trustworthy and of course tons of fun to be around! But in casual friends I just look for someone who is fun to be around and nice.
