A Good Friend and what Good Friends are



A good friend accepts you for who you are even in the past present and future moments

A good friend builds events with long lasting memories over time

A good friend builds hobbies with you

A good friend can be both good and true as a friend

A good friend can be honest

A good friend can be protective

A good friend can encourage natural healing

A good friend can get along with the wife

A good friend can understand each others beliefs and religious preferences and still accept them and their practices

A good friend can understand you and still accept you

A good friend can wipe away your sin naturally

A good friend cares for you and can feel what you feel

A good friend doesn't lie to you

A good friend doesn't look at you for money. A good friend looks at you for friendship

A good friend doesn't try to sleep with you but can accept every part of you

A good friend encourages changes in your bodies chemistry naturally

A good friend enjoys your company

A good friend inspires you and encourages you to build your dreams

A good friend is long lasting and not short coming

A good friend knows when things are tough instinctively without having to say anything at all

A good friend looks after you

A good friend makes a long positive impact

A good friend reaches out and stays in touch even as years pass

A good friend sees the brilliance in you and encourages you to seek that brilliance on your own

A good friend should be just like your wife

A good friend will accept you as you are and were for the good and bad

A good friend will check on you often and make sure you are doing okay

A good friend will communicate with you often and look forward to talking with you

A good friend makes time not excuses

A good friend reaches out and stays in touch even as years pass

A good friend sees the brilliance in you and encourages you to seek that brilliance on your own

A good friend will check on you often and make sure you are doing okay

A good friend will communicate with you often and look forward to talking with you

Good friends accept each others disciplines and beliefs as well as changes in time

Good friends accept you for who you are

Good friends build interests from each other over time from conversation and trying new things

Good friends can accept you for your strengths and weaknesses as well as what you are resistant to

Good friends can be real and true friends as well

Good friends can see past the dictionaries and thesauruses that are used to manipulate others

Good friends don't come and go. They stick around

Good friends encourage a positive nature and characteristics towards one another and can push past all the negativity

Good friends encourage you to be better than you were the day before

Good friends have similar interests

Good friends have your back when times get tough

Good friends look after one another
