What motivates friendship today among those who do not need connection with others for basic survival? Is it hard to form deep, meaningful friendships? What are the essential ingredients of friendship?

ok..walk with me on this one for a second...
i happen to be a person who is blessed to have a nice circle full of individuals i can call "friends"...some of them,i only see once a week..or a few times a month hell..some i havent seen in years...but my case is..there are no true "ingredients"....a friend can only be measured on what one applies to the bond/connection between you and that person...so..it is an individual thing.... all my friends have purpose in my life...i have some that arent good communicaters...but they have raised the bar in other subjects....so a true ingrediant who be to some it up...what ever YOU seek in a human being........
one thing i personally seek in some one....LOVE....of self..others..and what he/she does....
thank you for watching........lol

Yo, a friend is someone who got your back, someone you vibe with, someone you chill with. I've been blessed with a few circles of friends. I drift here and I drift there, a loner that hates being alone. I'm blessed to know so many peeps that share my interests, hopes and dreams.

SOMETIMES, not alla time though.

Since this thread is about friendship and all....a slot just opened up for a new best male friend...prefferably one very knowlegable about hip hop, anime, and other such delightful passtimes. If you're wondering what happened to the old one, check Devious Minds at the Flag Pole and Frustraiting Situations on the Honor Roll.

truth and respect i would say motivates friendships today. it's not hard to form it just depends on the people alot of people are wolfs in sheeps clothing and sometimes we don't find that out until there true colors come, alot people don't have your be interest at heart so we have to be really careful with who we allow into our lives and on what level.
one thing i personally seek in some one....LOVE....of self..others..and what he/she does....
good points fame, those have to be there.........

juju, but would u really call them your friends if you feel you cant trust them and confide in them?
for me personally, I think friendship is everything that you put in to it, a true friendship will give that back to you. My friends now, wow, i love them so much. I really do! I swur, without my friends, I probably wouldnt be here. I'd be this hermit or something. I can tell you that my friends love me and accept me for all of my flaws, for it, in my opinion, is your flaws that make people love you and stick by you. My friends are respectful and loyal. There is a bond between my friends and I that I feel will last forever. Like fame, I have friends that I see once in a while, or even once in a blue moon, but I know that if I called them, they'd be there @ the drop of a dime. Thats just how we do. We listen to each other. We cry with each other. We laugh with each other. We get in trouble with each other. Even on this forum, I feel that I've made some friends in which I know, if I come through they state, Im going to holla at them farealz! ((((((((((((((hugs)))))))))))) Thank you to all my friends, seriously, from the bottom of my <3... I love yall to death.

@jugil, i foreal relate to keeping things to yourself so ppl wont see it as a weakness that you're opening up to them. AND i agree with you that females talk to damn much and have 2 much drama for me (sometimes). i honestly like hanging with guys over girls anyday.

And there are some people that i do consider my friends... that is what causes stress.. "keeping it all to yourself". even if you tell a lil bird that is perched out your window...tell it or even the higher being you look up to.. please darling tell it...tell it It can be a poster of your favorite artist on the wall of your bedroom. tell it Please please find a positive way to release what you are feeling. When you are in the shower or the tub.. talk it over with your self...(not a sign of being crazy) In my past I have let "not trusting issues" and "keeping things inside" put me in the hospital...2xs... for real but no more.. Id rather tell the fuggin mail man than to "keep it all inside". Stress is a mo fo. Things I do by myself smoke by myself, drink by myself... tell my problems to my Mo foin self.. and most of all Breathe ,stretch shake and let it go.. it's 2005 Just a suggestion sweetheart...Hope all is well with you.
