the importance of being a good friend

Deenys Explain 


Title: How to be a good friend.

  • Trustworthy and Honesty.

  • How they help in the future.

  • How to be a good friend.


(How to be a good friend/How they help in the future)

Being a good friend to me means sticking up  for them. I believe being a good friend will help you in life because they will help you with your confidence and also be a good friend to other people you meet...


(Trustworthy and Honesty)

Being nice to other people will get you far in life, being kind will get you to where you wanna go. Being able to have trust and confidence in your friend is one of the most important requirements of a strong relationship because true friendship means you are able to count on one another…


Part of caring for a friend is honoring what they tell you, no matter the significance, with confidentiality and respect. Good friends are loyal and accept you for who you are during the good and bad times. Good friends are also honest and they are  honest enough to tell you when you're not being a good friend yourself...


Along with good friends who are present, loyal, and honest, most people want friends who are trustworthy..
