:heart: Question of the Day- Day 38!!:heart:

What's your definition of a good friend? (Totally unrelated to weight loss lol)

**Me- I don't even know anymore.... I always try to see the good in everyone and I always try to go above and beyond for my friends but I never get anything in return or I get betrayed in some way or another. Maybe I am friend's with the wrong people?

    I think friendship is all about reciprocation. I'm not a doormat, but I'm very generous on an emotional and activity level with my friends. I'm a reliable person, and I want that in someone that is close to my life. I love to laugh and never find myself hanging around gloomy people. I like someone who loves children since I love mine infinitely more than cake... and boy howdy do I love me some cake!!!! I support my friends just as I hope they support me. Plus, if they like shoe shopping and walking in the park - they're in!!!
  • A good friendship is akin to a good marriage.... there has to be compromise on both sides. With friends, it's quality, not quantity, that matters. Having many acquaintances or associates to do things with is a good thing, but when it comes to the inner circle, they should be people you could trust your life with and they know they can trust their lives with you. I have maybe three people in my inner circle and I"m good with that number. I have many many more than that on the outer ring because they help to make my life fun and enjoyable.
