Friends........great arent they, now I bet you have a couple, good close tight ones, the only one i have is my heavenly father and his son. All the other people are just associates, who think they are my friend and consider me a "friend", i dont really do the same. But amongst this plethora of so self-proclaimed "friends" you begin to see who people really are. It's actully pretty funny in the hall ways and when your looking really cute everyones like oh hey, wutz up girl, or hey friend! Yea the last one is my personal favourite, how they pretend to be your friend. It's true in your time of need or when your going throught your deepest darkest tunnel that is when you see who your real friends are. And that brings me to this: a real friend will care, a friend will be concerned and knows the difference between concern and just plain nosy. A friend gives good adivce, a friend will compromise so your both happy or at least content, a real friend doesnt have to be reminded in advance about your birthday because they "forget", a real ffriend stands up for you when your week, a real friends cares about your stupid information, a real friend wont watch you fall, a real friend TALKS to you, i mean really talks, i real friend LISTENS and gives commentary not only the genric "awwwwwwwwwww that's sad or man that sucks". A real friend intiates the converstion once in a while and doesnt always lets you be the instigator of a converstion. A real friend wll not let their be awkardness in a converstion, a real friend will be your date when you dont have one, a real friend wont always agree with you, but that doesnt end the relationship. And lastly a real friend will not a friendship over stupidity. Now as you read this analyze whom you call "friends", though they dont have to fit into this perfect mold of the "perfect friend" but if they dont fit into at least half of these traits than......................hmmmmmmmmmmm.............yeah, well that's your friend. Now me i have a friend that fits into every single one of this characteristics, and that is as i stated in the beginning, my heavenly father Jesus Christ, my Lord and Saviour, the eternal Friend.
Who's really going to be there for you? hmmmmmmmm Your friend(s) think again BUD!

Just some advice,
You will get more people to read and comment on your blogs if you take the time to use proper spelling and grammar. It also helps a lot to make separate paragraphs, with a space in between each paragraph, so it is easier for people to read your blogs.
That said:
a real friend doesnt have to be reminded in advance about your birthday because they "forget"
I forget things. I am a forgetful person. I don't remember people's birthdays. My friends don't hold it against me, because they are real enough to know I'm forgetful.
a real friends cares about your stupid information
No, they don't. But often they pretend to, and that's nice.
a real friend wont watch you fall
Yes, they will. Because there is no way to stop it. But they'll be by me as I pick myself back up.
real friend LISTENS and gives commentary not only the genric "awwwwwwwwwww that's sad or man that sucks".
Usually, I don't want commentary. I just want acknowledgment that they heard me talk. It's not easy to be able to give a heart-felt speech because you can't relate to someone and you don't know how to even try, but it is easy to let them know you know they feel bad. All that takes is an "Man, that really sucks."
"What a crazy random happenstance!"
