How many TRUE friends do you have?

Like the ones who you can really depend upon. The ones who will love you, nurture you and care for you unconditionally. Who would be there if you had a car accident and were hospitalised, would take you in if you became homeless, would come running if you went through a bad break-up.

Been doing some thinking recently and it's shocked me to realise that there are only 3 people (excluding family members) who i'd count as proper friends, as described above.

1.
Two. I am far too dependent on them.

As my father always used to say, 'if a person has three true friends, they have done very well in life'. I have three 'true' friends; the rest are acquaintances.

2 that I could trust with my life, one girl and one guy :h:

1. My boyfriend. But I wouldn't say I depend on him. I just know I can go to him whenever I have a problem or need help, need a shoulder to cry on etc etc.

Everyone else is just acquaintances, people to go out with and have a good time, or work colleagues.

Same, let's meet together and do something :smile:
1 'true friend'
A few best friends
A hell of a lot of acquaintances
No one (yet) :frown:
To be honest, from your description, I don't count on anyone outside of my family for those things.
My mum would do that. :moon:

There are about two people off the top of my head outside of my family that I would do all that for unconditionally, but I would NEVER, EVER say who they are.
Two, but I have a feeling it'll drop to one when he goes away to university.

Just one.

The others would sell my skin at the first opportunity.

2 true friends
A few good/best friends
A few acquaintances
1 - my partner. He was my best friend before dating too. Our friendship and bond has gotten stronger as our relationship has progressed as well.

I don't have friends. Just a few people that I talk to in school.
