Friendship is undeniably important for your mental and emotional well-being. With a solid support network in place, you can meet just about any challenge life throws at you. Plus, you can enjoy everything so much more when you’re surrounded by companions who appreciate you and truly “get” you. But what’s the definition of a true best friend? What makes a good friendship, and how can you tell if you’re cultivating one? Without a clear sense of what you’re looking for in your close relationships, it’s easy to fall into unhealthy dynamics and miss out on the kind of rich, loving friendships you deserve.
We’ll explore the seven key qualities of a good friend, explaining how to identify each and considering why each aspect is so important. As you look through this list, consider how you might also learn more about how to be a good friend to the people in your life.
Answer:
Friends are the best no matter what happens.
Explanation:
The best answer I've found has come from Jordan Greenhall:
"A circle of friends. This is the foundation of everything. The only human relationship is that of friendship. The only one that matters, at least. One can have acquaintances, servants, masters, contemporaries, employees, etc. But the ones that matter are your friends. Unless she is your servant or roommate, your wife is your friend. Unless they are your masters (or your servants), your parents and your teachers are your friends. Even your enemies – especially your enemies – are your friends. If they matter.
What is a friend? A friend is someone who helps you overcome yourself. Someone who is an ally in your endeavor to become more than you are. There are many many different kinds of friendship, different roles that friends can play, but this is the common thread. Self-overcoming is, of course, the central task of any human being. This is why friendship is the only important human relationship. (You can see how parenting is a particular variant of friendship.)
Of the different roles of friendship, there are two important poles. One role of the friend is to serve as anchor, understanding, safety, home territory. This role is what gives you the power and ability to extend. The ability to take risks without risking everything. The other role of the friend is to serve as challenge, creativity, ecstasy, going-beyond. This is the role that helps you break-through and extend. The ability to take risks well and effectively. Almost all friends will, over the course of their friendship, play both roles. A parent must both push and protect. In delicate balance. The particular mixture is a matter of need, capacity, proclivity, sensitivity, wisdom and luck.
All friendship is rooted in love. Friendship requires the elements of love: trust, confidence, pride, empathy, care. A good friend, of course, possesses wisdom, insight and skill. But any friendship must be built on a foundation of love. Without love there is no safety. Without love, there is no alliance in risk.
Friendship must be completely absent of distrust, contempt and fear (and all of the weaknesses and wounding that stem from these). Fear is particularly challenging – because it is the unfortunate turning of care. Fear turns care into attachment – preventing growth and development. Turning health in to weakness and sterility. An enemy who fears you is no friend. An enemy who you despise is no friend. An enemy who you can love is a friend – one of the most powerful forms of friend. Woe that there are so few enemies in the world who can be friends.
