A best friend is usually someone you can have a laugh with.
A best friend can be a man or woman. They might be funny, they're usually fun and always nice.
They're there when you need them, you can rely on them and trust them.
And most of all, a best friend is someone who puts up with you.
Did you know?
- Fact
A survey by the State University of New York and Russia's Moscow State University for the Humanities shows that Americans consider friendship as a key part of romantic love, while Russians and Lithuanians rarely mention it.
- Language tip
The idiom 'fair-weather friend' is an informal way of referring to someone who is your friend only when things are pleasant or going well for you.
- Cultural tip
In Japan people bow when greeting each other. When greeting a close friend the bow is less pronounced and it might look like a brief nod of the head.

When I was a child my best friend was understanding, nice and lovely, but one day without any explanations, she disappeared of my life... Maybe both of us were very uncareful with out friendship and distances every day were bigger.
Nowadays I have several close friends but not a best friend in particular. I try to be nice and understanding with my friends and overall being there when they really need that... sometimes we only need that, someone who listens to and understands us.

I think the best friend is somebody who you can count on her or him and your relationship is based on mutual trust. My best friends are my sisters and I can talk to them about everything and they are always ready to help me.

This question has wandered me for a long time since i have not had a closest friend yet,except my boyfriend.But actually,i've got my own answer of the question: what makes a best friend.There a saying that " friend in need is friend in deep".I think the attitude that be always ready to help each other in any case is the most precious thing of a friendship.Nomatter is this a trouble case or a happy case,good friends still will be together to share all of things...yes,that's enough for a permanent ralationship./

It's really hard to say .
But from my experience , The best friend is the person who you meet and get along easily and always share the happy and sad moments. A person who u can trust and forgive for any mistakes .
you can advise each other , as well as choosing the right way .
Thanks for giving me this oppotunity to give my prespective .

In my opinion, if you find a best friend in your life, you are a happy person.
A best friend is a friend who treat you well and has a similar thought or viewpoint to you. He is willing to share your joy and sorrow. Something you can’t tell anyone else except your best friend because you believe that he will sympathize with you. He gives his hands or good advice whenever you’re in trouble. Therefore, you have a balance feeling thanks to this fulcrum.
I really have a some best friends. Every one could share with me for some aspect. I feel warm when I think of them.

For me, a good friend is someone who can share almost everything with you. You don’t mind telling him those good as well as bad things. Though, sometimes you may be criticized, you can just believe that all comments made are on a good faith. It’s really happy to have such a friend around. On the other hand, you should put a lot of efforts to keep your friendship and make it grows. It will die if you don't take care of it.

Friendship to be the sort where we can talk about anything, and comfort eachother when we are upset and have fun. Supporting each other all the time and sharing lives.

I have a few best friend. After one month, one of my best friend will be married and he is the last one to be married among my friends.
The friendship will be strong enough through the years only being based on the experience that friends overcame the difficulties in life together. The truly friends should help each other without any turn back.
I am so lucky that I have a few truely best friends in my life.

A best friend who is the people you can share everything with them from lifestyle, education, films to your opinion about economy, polity, culture. But in this time, I just have the friends not the best friends because they almost have the wrong views and when they does not have enough arguments to debate, they often become the angry people.

I think it is difficult to have a best friends all my life, the very best friend forever. I am always trying to have a close friend wherever I am but that friend is different as where I am, where I live, or where I am working. So the way to make a best friend is paying continuous attention to each other and keeping in contact with them. To be a best friend, both should share their life whether they are in a good condition or not. Now people are very busy in doing their things, therefore it is not easy to do what I mentioned above. Having only one best friend in my llife may be considered to be successful life because I am feeling the importance of best friend that is likely to exist for me, as time passes.

My best friend would be someone who is relatively more similar to my character, personality, habits, taste and preferences. Having these similarities, either she or he and I always go together, eat together, share each other, undertake the cat race through thick and thin.

During my life I had only two true friends but they never considered that I was their friend. So it seems to me that I never had a best friend at all. Two years ago a girl has been considered that I was her best friend but I was fell in love with her and I had to end our relationship because that was too painful to me to be her friend just a friend. Frankly speaking I think that friendship between a man and a woman is impossible. Now there is a guy who I’m trying to be a friend for but he is too reserved.

According to me, friiendship can be discused into many angles and many perspectives as well, for instance friend who is willing to support his friend in his life especially in times of stress is a typical friend modal. Moreover if we refer to the famous saying that says " friendship is a treasure " we'll find out that it's a gift from God.

Hello everybody.My name is Aidas.I think to have a good reliable friend it's isn't easy task to fulfill in everybody's life.The worst thing is when your reckoned the best friend disappoints you or even betrays and leaves your heart in tatters for a very long time and then aftewords you start picking your friends and looking at people very carefully. My best friend is my wife I think.We have been together for fourteen years and luckily I have never been disappointed by her , never.We are always together, we share good and bad , we 've got no childrens but we are happy and we can rely on each other just on each other and on nobody else!Sometimes I think to my self what would i do ?How would i live if I lost her?This thought just crosses my mind .We are so lonely in this world ful of cruelties, jealousies, hatred...It's so fearfull to live alone. I even do not know if I make it?
About that survey : I am Lithuanian and if to be honest have never had real friend or living in Lithuania neither now living in England but I wouldn't say i do not need one cause : not really about everything you can discuss with your wife ;there are some masculine related problems I call them women tabu and then you miss reall men's company ,but this is already another subject for conversation.
Thank you and bye.

The best friend to me is somebody who tries to truly understand and believe me. These days when I think this word “friend “there are two people in my mind. The first person is my husband. He always gives me good advices and cheer up my sprit. I always talk with him when I should make an important decision on my work and life. Whether that direction from him can be made good result or not, what we are exchanging our opinions about some issue is always be a wonderful time. The other best friend is my design partner. Sometimes she passes me sharp and painful opinions. She helps me I can keep a objective view about some circumstances.

This is my question in a long times. Because I don't know who is my best friend.
When I studied at the high school, i have a girlfriend and i think it's my best friend. But I have a bit mistake. and when I go to the College, we didn't have closely friendship. And I have boyfriend, he love me. He alway worry for me. He put up with me althought I angry with him. Sometime we don't meet together. And anytime I have a problem in my life, my studies, my work, and he's there to encourage me, to help me over the difficult. So i think, he is my best friend. And I love him.

I didn't ever have one. Although I knew some friends over 10 years ago, we never have a deep talk about anything ourselves. I tried to share my thought and secrets with some good friends but they never care about what I say and I got nothing from them. I always make them comfortable in any gathering but they never do the same thing to me. It's really hurt. However, I will never give up to find the one who we can understand each other.

I had a best friend when I was child. We had always fun together and laughed together.
Unfortunately when we separated from each other, our lives' directions changed and I continued goingt to school but he quit school and started working. After long time once we met eachother but he was so strange and he seemed like we had never been friends, it was disappointing for me because we were so close to eachother.

The word 'Best Friend' makes me think a long time..Eventhough I sometimes think whether I have a best friend, it seems that i don't have a truly reliable friend. so whenever i knew this fact i feel the futility of life thinking what i have done until twenties.
Surely i have some good and close friends, but i can't choose one of them because they are all nice. :) I also agree with some people's comments that a friend who was with me in a hard and difficult times is the best friend to me. Probably one of my friends can see me as a best friend, but i just don't know..

when I was young, I always had a problem of making friendships maybe because of my personality , I was a little bit introvert and shy and not too much talkative so I was always having a feeling of lonely.I was keeping my secrets deep inside myself whether they were good or bad . when I was a teenager, my personality slightly changed , I was having some friends that I was wasting my time with , but all of them leave now and I dunno any news about them. Now when I become adult,I realized that it's not important to have so many friends as long as u have the best and real one . that one who u can trust and tell him ur secrets and feel relieved after that. that one who advises u with the best for u when he feels that u're falling. that one who u can cry loudly in front of him , and he'll never think that u 're weak but he'll always tell u the words that give u the strength to continue . that one who knows what u feel from ur face without asking and he'll be beside u in ur ups and downs. I wish if I could find that real friend who will never leave me no matter what, but I guess that they're so rare and I'm afraid of dying without finding him :'(

I cannot say that I only have a best friend, it could be better to say that I have three or four best friends. All it depends on the situation where you are...In the school I had two best friends because we got on well, we studied together, we talked about boys, we felt very well together... and now on the University I have friends which I can talk about a lot of things about our degree or talk about our life: our expectations and our fears. The major part of my old best friends now still being my best friends. And I would add my boyfriend too, because he always listen to everything that I tell him and he always explain me all the things that make him worry, we trust to each other.

To my understanding, a best friend is one who will be there for you even when the whole world turn its back against you.
Some qualities that make a good or best ally are honesty,affectionate,sincerity, and supportive
My best friend is Isaac Ansah- a God fearing christian and born and raised in a missionary house. He is some sort of person who can sit with you for hour in the living room with saying a word to each other, yet he will go out and tell the whole world that you had a breathtaking conversation. Dislikes are pretty few in his book.

According to me, a best friend is the one
who can bring smiles on your face when you are in trouble,
whom you can share anything about you,
who cares about you most than anyone else,
who become sad when you are sad and who is more happy in your happiness.
Unfortunately I haven't had such a friend and I think Its very hard to find such a friend in this self-centered human society.

I think that trust makes a best friend. It is essential to be a reliable person to make a best friend. For example, you must not tell a lie and must not disclose your friend's secret to others, otherwise you will lose your trust. Therefore, it is important to be honest and to keep your friend's secret.

I think complicated to define a Best Friend. During the life we have a lot of Best friends each one in his specific time. Nowadays the way of life leads us to meet new people and sometimes we make new relationship and new friends.
Today I would say that my best friend are my mom and my fiancee, but today because tomorrow my fiancee can be no more my fiancee.

The Holly Quran is the best friend to me. When I recite it I feel comfortable and relaxed. It's put me in a good spirit!. My best friend also is when I call Allah to help me. I always feel that Allah answers my prayer.
From human, the best friend to me is someone who don't lie on me, nice, loyal, and generous. Someone whom I can count on him when I need it. When something unhappy suddenly happens to me he stands beside me and help me in every way.

Hello all, "what makes a best friend?" is really my own question since i was a teenager as i have lots of friends but closed-friend (or best friend).
In my opinion, a best friend is whom i feel free, comfortable to be with, i can trust on and i can tell everything without scaring of being laugh or exposing.
If a person with characteristic above makes a best friend to me. I wish i could meet him/her early.

i personally believe that a best friend is someone that willing to be with you because of you. not being fair weather, he/she should be there for you rain or shine.

Hi.for me, I think that there is no real friendship nowdays nor good and trustful friends.....Everyone is looking for his own sake disregarding the feelings of his or her friend. I have colleges, classmates...etc but not close friends. My close friends are: my mother and my sisters whom I keep no secret.
