There are many things that people believe make a person a good friend. Of all the things that are good qualities for a friend to have, there are three that easily stand out above the rest. A good friend is someone who has integrity, is loving and kind, and reliable. One of the most important things that good friend has is integrity. In other words, a good friend is honest with you even when it means that it may hurt you to hear the truth. One example of this is in dating. No guy or girl wants to hear that the person that they have been dating is cheating on them. It’s worse for them to hear it from a friend, because having someone that close to them “break the news’” puts them in a position where even if they don’t want to believe their friend, they have to at least acknowledge what was said by there friend. At the same time it is also said that the truth will set you free. In many cases, If a “friend” is willing to lie to a person just to keep them from being upset at them, then they do not really care about that person. There are situations where it is best not to tell all of the truth or to lie, but that’s only if the truth will bring physical harm to the person or the person will bring physical harm to themself. In all other cases, lying is not something that friends do to each other. A good friend will tell you what the truth is even if it meant that they would no longer be your friend. Love is a key part of being a good friend. Love and emotions are what can easily make or break a relationship. For example, if there are two people who call eachother friends, and one loves the other but the same or similar love or kindness is not returned, then the friendship will fall apart. There are “friendships” that exist without true love or care for the other, but these are not good friendships. Love kindness and being honest are the main difference between, having a heart to heart connection with another,
