People all need friends because nobody wants to be lonely and a friend can help you in good and bad times. You've made friends since childhood, but you still don't know who your true friends are.
Always honest
Honesty is important to keep a relationship alive. It may be hard sometimes but lying can destroy a friendship. It is important that your friend speaks honestly and never makes up stories.
Always there for you
There are always periods in your life when you have problems or difficulties. A true friend will always have time to listen to your problems and give advice. It may not be able to solve your problems but the fact that your friend made time to listen is a sign he/she cares for you. You also need to accept that your friend also has other things to do so he/she can't always listen to your problems at once.
Always respectful(尊敬的)
A true friend will always respect your opinion no matter whether he/she agrees or not.
Always understanding
A true friend will always be forgiving and understanding, even if it isn't his/her fault. We are all different people and we all make mistakes. A true friend is always forgiving and understanding because he/she doesn't want to take the risk of losing his/her best friend.
