Friends for life...

 

 

So why are they so darn good to have?

It’s important to have friends in our lives for all sorts of reasons, the main one being COMMUNICATION: so we can chat, goss, joke, giggle, chat some more…!

They’re also perfect for sharing just about anything with (although NOT your brand new shoes thank you very much – hands off!) and funnily enough, we learn an awful lot from our friends, quite often without even realising! Spooky!
 

What makes a good friend?

We have friends for all different things, it’s a bit like a pick ‘n’ mix, (mmmm… pick ‘n’ mix….!) Anyway, yes, so we have the ones who are there for a good old chat about life, the ones who love a laugh, our fave shopping partners…the list goes on!

But in all of these different types of friends there needs to be certain characteristics which make them so absolutely faaabulous as friends! Otherwise, sorry pal but you just won’t do! 

 

 

Here’s a bit of a checklist which you can measure your chums against:

Good friends:

  • We can trust
  • Help us out
  • Don't jude us
  • Are honest and fair
  • Are reliable
  • Make us smile
  • Like us for exactly who we are
  • Encourage and support us
  • Respect us
  • Listen to us

DON'T FORGET: YOU also need to make sure you are a good friend in return!

 

 

 Friends for life

 

Being friends is a two-way thing. It's easy to judge how good your friends are to you...have you ever thought how good a friend you are to them?
