A True Friend Is...

Remember that a true friend:

  • Can be trusted not to share your personal information (such as your phone number, your home address, etc.).
  • Won't share information that you have confided in them (such as a crush on a classmate, or a fight you had with your parents) with other friends.
  • Won't use your secrets for gossip.
  • Listens and is understanding.
  • Can disagree with you without putting you or your other friends down.
  • Gives support and encouragement.
  • Respects your decision when you don't want to do something.
  • Supports you when you have a problem.

Remember that you should not get into a romantic relationship with someone who isn't a true friend.

Also remember that all of this is true when communicating through texting and other online spaces!

In healthy friendships, friends do not misuse information you've shared with them in order to hurt you.

A true friend is...

  • Someone you like to hang out with.
  • Someone you like to share with and talk to.
  • Someone you can have fun with.
  • Someone you can trust.
  • Someone you can rely on.

A TRUE freind is someone who wont leave you behind for someone new, a TRUE friend accepts you for who you are, a TRUE friend is someone who is always there for you when your down.. if your friend doesnt do anything to help you out, their not your true friends.. find someone who is nice and respects you,

a TRUE friend is someone that is there for you when your hurting and they make sure your ok... if a friend makes fun of you, they aren't a true friend!! so think about who your real friends are because you could really get hurt. it has happened to everyone where they got hurt by someone that they think are their true friends, but really they aren't.
