Fair Weather Friends
2 The majority of us have friends, the friends we have known since childhood, the friends we would do anything for; the friend that would do anything for us.

Who will be the first to arrive at our house on Super bowl Sunday or game seven of the NBA playoffs? Our trustworthy fair weather friend of course! When we need a friend that will drink the most drinks, and eat the most food at our social events, we can just call our fair weather friend.

While our true friends will be there through thick and thin, our fair weather friend will avoid us like a plague in times of crisis. Our true friends will give us that shoulder to cry on, they will tell us the truth whether it hurts our feelings or not. Our fair weather friend will not show up until there is fun to be had. It is probably safe to say that a
