Friendship

Acceptance is the basis of real friendship

Broken friendships can be repaired

Communication is the key to developing friends

Deep friendships take time and effort

Ear – give a listening ear to others

Foibles – they will have some – so do you.

Give of yourself to your friends

Honesty is essential

Issues should be dealt with a.s.a.p.

Justifying yourself should not be necessary

Know their pet likes/dislikes – friends do that

Levels of friendship are important

Mentoring can be part of a friendship

Never gossip or criticise your friend to others

Organise fun things to do together

Popularity isn’t always a good thing

Question – how good a friend are you?

Resist the urge to interfere in off limit subjects

Support wholeheartedly – especially in crisis

Trust is one measure of a friend

Understand your differences

Value is not achieved by the number of your friends

Want a friend? Then be a friend

Xtra time spent = deeper friendship

You’ll find some people that you just don’t click with

Zero in on things you have in common
