For tht u should define clear idea of real friend.\nWht do u expect from a real friend?\nwhen he/she won't meet ur expectation , they won't be real for u.\nIt's all depends on u. If u r talking abt ideal friend then it's very hard. Just u can guess from urself. can u be ideal friend?

If you want a friend, a true friend, all you need to do is be yourself. Spend time with them. Show them you care about them, about everything that is related to them. With time, they would start reciprocating your friendship. Good luck

I can relate. I can rarely find anyone who is truly appealing to me. Most the people I encounter are people that I don't care enough for to truly call them my friend. I'm with you - it doesn't much bother me. I went through a time when my social life was everything, but looking back it was not fulfilling. I have better things to do with my time than pacify my friends needs. I think some people just prefer solitary lifes.

ok , i would honestly say that it isnt easy. the secret to meeting someone is do someting you love. like v-ball, join clubs. you can meet people at work. during play. if you look at the experiences as dating then your going to go through hell. the best way is to relax, treat every person you meet like they are a long lost friend. care about meeting but at the same time dont put to much on the line. if your antisocial then check out lava life. or on line clubs. i dont like the on line thing because you never know who they really are. if you meet them in person you can have common ground and be in full control at all times.

If you want a real friend in life... if you want a life... look in your neighborhood or school. This is the WORST place to look for one.

You need to make sure that the first person you care about is yourself. If the people that you care about do not care about you then you need to look a little more carefully at your selection criteria. If you take time for yourself the real friends will seek you out. Those that do not are not real friends and you don’t have to go through the pain of finding out later. We are too quick to befriend groups and far to accepting of their insults. Be your own best friend first and rest will follow.

Is it hard to find true love ? It depends on individual. It's not the country, it's just the right person that you meet and feeling the sparks. To find the right person is not easy because no one is perfect so you can never find someone you have created in your mind. It's like win some and loose some.You will find one but you are not in a hurry so why worry just make friends and between those new friends that you have there will be one very special person.

if u really want a friend , u need to talk to God cause he is  the only one that will lead you in the right direction \ndepending on people of the world will only make u disappointed in life , they come and they go but God is forever

Sorry I read some of the stupid replies you received first. Its not easy finding new friends trut me. I am in my 40's and single and its not easy for me either. But I do have hopes that will change someday for me too. But I may not live close to you but IM me and we can talk. I am online most evenings and always free to chat with friends.

A good friend is worth a thousand smiles. You must be careful about making friends with people on the net, there are a lot of snakes in the grass and you could be easy prey.\nDepending why you want net friends is important, so is your age. I am happy to answer emails.

GOOD FRIENDS ARE HARD TO FIND AND SOMETIMES EVEN THE BEST FRIENDS DO BAD THING. WE ARE ONLY HUMAN.

Real Friends R very hard 2 come by! I'm still serch'n 4 a couple my self! So far people's intrest S what makes it hard, F U don't have a lot N common then there's no tottal friendship, there's only a partial, like my tia said, she has a shop'n friend, a smok'n budy friend, she has a differ friend 4 a differ occation, there has 2 B some common groud Btween the each other 2 find friendship. I hav'nt yet came 2 a conclusion yet, I did long a go when I was N the 11th Grade then she dumpt our friendship, then I met 1 N College 3rd simester didn't take long 4 her 2 dump our friendship as well. Takes a while tell U hit the jack pot U know?

One in real life. She has always been there no matter what. \n\nOn the Internet. I have a few that I do dearly care about and they are there for me when I am sad. I am lucky to have them. Sadly there are times when we think we have a good friend only to find out later they do a runner on you. Best not to get too close to quick.\n\nWhat I consider a friend. Someone that understands me and one that is always there no matter what the case.

20 yrs and counting...3 years ago, and I don't know where I'd be if I hadn't made that friend!!\nI don't think that it's much more difficult to make friends as you age but that friendship takes on a different role. When you are younger, you have more time to play and hang out but as you age priorities take on a different meaning. It's not so much about fitting in or being accepted but paying bills and dating and children or work and career and its really difficult to step out of that groove and invite someone into your personal space or trying to tap into someone's  list of things to do... It's unfortunate-I really do think that friendship should have as much importance in the lives of 30 year olds as it does in the lives of 13 year olds but that is how it is (and I think it does-it just manifests itself in a different way-a quick phone call instead of a walk or a 1/2 hr coffee instead of an evening out drinking)...I have also noticed this-As you age (well into late life, seniors, old foggies) there seems to be a very high networking of friends (ladies quilting, men playing chess). So, not to worry, there will your later years when people are surrounded by their "senior buddies".

A good way to make friends is just to listen to his/her problems and get their trust.  It takes approximately ninety days for that person to get to know you as a person thus the friendship.  With that in mind a good way to make friends is being there for that person and if you love or care for the person is giving him/her advice that the person doesn't want to hear.  I hope this helps you out.

Yes, it is possible to make freinds in here. You have to be very careful though, on ur judgement on who is true and who is not. From my experience, I have made some very good freinds, with whom iam in touch with and some of whom i have even met. But that happens after a very long time, once you are confident that the other person is not lying on u or cheating u in any way. For me, I recognise true freindship (on the internet) over a period of time (as we are just talking over a screen and u have not heard or seen them), when what they say about themselves dont change, or the character that they portray is the way they have actually talked about themselves, sometimes sharing pics, talking about our families, or even a fone call...but again, as i said that happens over a period of time..not immediately..\n\nsometimes, as 'somer' said, time differences matter too..however that shudn't be a problem cos obviuosly u make freinds with whom u see when u are online..\n\nanyway, good luck making freinds..but as i said, just be careful and dont reach conclusions on anyone too soon..
