BFF

i look for someone who seems nice, friendly, and trustworthy. I don’t grill them or anything. Everyone has flaws. There is no “perfect friend”

that video was soooo true

Everything you need to look for in a bff is how loyal they are to you. And wether or not she is kind.

The Perfect BFF

A great friend would be someone who doesnt poison me by being mean. I like it when she likes me for who I am, and we would be able to give each other advice.

my perfect bff

I look for someone who gets you ,who is always by your side ,and you can trust with all your secrets. I definatly do not want someone who is an a tight clique or I cant act myself around.

I look for an honest, trustworthy, loyal, nice, funny best friend who does NOT share all the same interests as me. For instance my friend Rachel* likes sports, Michael Jackson, and rock&roll. I like shopping, Justin Bieber, Taylor Swift, and country and pop. We are nothing alike, yet we are excactly the same!!!

bff

bffs just happen you don’t go out and search for one they just happen. Like my bff her dad and mom lived in virginia far away from wyoming and one day her dad got a job here and it was just like we were meant to be here for eachother. They just happen.

A best friend

A good friend is someone who will start laughing their head off if you trip and fall -and makes you start to laugh too- and then when theyre done they ask if youre alright. It’s someone who you feel really comfortable around and can share all your secrets with without having to ask if they won’t tell first. They share all their secrets with you. They make you laugh so hard your whole body hurts and you can’t breathe. Half the time you don’t even have a clue why your laughing. You feel comfortable acting like total dorks together. You wanna talk to them every second of the day. They finish your sentances and you have too many inside jokes to count. If someone’s picking on you they stand up for you instead of running away. They litterally know everything about you. Theyre the first person you think of when you need a shoulder to cry on or someone to share a joke with. That would be a best friend.

What I look for in a BFF...

There are 4 things I look for in a potential BFF: 1. Honesty, to have a real friendship your BFF has to be real! She has to tell you the truth, no matter what! 2. Trust. I would never tell someone a secret unless I trust them and I know that they won’t tell anyone. 3. Someone who will stick up for me. When the “Queen Bee” of the school passes by and says my new shirt is horrible, my BFF should always be there to say that she thinks it looks fabulous and I will stick up for her when she is made fun of. 4. A sense of humor. I know it seems like you don’t need a friend who is funny but when you feel down, your BFF will be there to cheer you up with her sense of humor, she can bring a smile to your face wherever…whenever!

Choosing a BFF

A BFF to me is someone who doesn’t care about how you look, where your from and is always there to catch you when you fall. If there wasn’t someone there for you when you needed them to be, you would keep falling and eventually hit the bottom. When your with a friend you’ll never hit the bottom because they catch you. A best friend is someone who does the right thing and doesn’t let anyone down intentionally. They understand, you can tell them anything. I have a BFF named Katelyn we do pretty much EVERYTHING together. I don’t like to talk negative about other people or myself and even if i say something negative about my teeth or my hair to Katelyn she looks at me and smiles and says “How can you think that? Be happy you’re you.” My BFF helped me realized i am pretty and not to worry about the way i look on the outside but how i am in the inside. That’s a best friend I am more than happy to have. I am happy i chose her.

friends

I think that if you are always looking for specific qualities in a BFF, then you won’t get to see much different kinds of people ( who are super interesting!) All of your friends may be the same and a little boring (lol) because they might be all the same. remember, you dont have 2 listen 2 wat i have 2 say, (pick your friends the way you would like, and sometimes friends pick you.) Thanks for your time <3 -girly239

My BFF

When I’m looking for a new BFF there are three thing main things that I look for: #1. Make sure they are honest. #2. Make sure they are trustworthy. #3. Mainly look to see if they make you feel good about yourself. Don’t be friends with someone who is mean to you and says bad things about you look for someone that says you are nice smart and pretty

BFF's and Family's

Hello everyone,well I have 3 best friends! They are 1.Mom,2.Dad,3.Sister. I tell them everything including details.I can never think of them breaking my trust. You can depend on BFF’s for everything , and you can trust them and the BFF’s that go to the same school as you and the same class always stick up for you for example:my BFF Lisa sticked up for me when Ani the meanest girl in the class,well she got 2 day detention from school for being this mean to her classmates said that I was a scaredy-cat because I didn’t want to say something mean to the 2nd meanest girl in the class Ani’s best friend of course(the mean girls). But then Lisa said to Ani why don’t you do it first? Lisa is really bold I mean because of her lots of mean girls become nice to me. I hope you enjoy hearing this.!

A Best friend

A best friend is someone you can trust! Somebody you are not afraid to tell secrets to.

choose wisely

Best friends aren’t just the popular girls who get all of the attention. A friend is someone who accepts you for who you are, no matter how dorky, weird, or different you are!

friends

honestly i do not have a bff. i have good friends, but not a best friend. i totally do agree with what they said though. like i go to private school and like our grade is the worst, so theyre always mixing up our home classes. so in 6th grade they totally mixed us up with girls (all girls school) who had never like spoken to each other b4. At 1st i was soo upset but it turns out that even though we never would have guessesd it b4 we really are similar. Now were a tight group that is almost all friends (- 2 girls)and (this sounds wierd but is totally true:) our relationships with eachother have really grown. So i guess a tip is get a chance to really know ppl, even if b4 u would never associate urselfs with them b4 Who knows?!

How to Choose your BFF!

1. First, think of the qualities you look for in a friend. 2. Look around for people who seem to have these qualities. 3. Introduce yourself. Don’t forget to smile! 4. Get to know her. 5. Hang out with her. 6. Decide if you think she is right for you.

BFF

I think a BFF is someone you like for who they are and they like you for who you are. And Ithink they are just someone you can connect to and they are loyal to you.

Another quality

I think a Best Friend should also have similar sense of humor as you, so you can joke around and not be serious all the time…
