well, like, does a person need a best friend? this girl (we used to be like, bestbestbest friends), now she's all like, 'seriously, best friends suck sh!t. it's better to just be GOOD friends instead of BEST friends' on her xanga. and i just think thats kind of stupid, because its nice knowing you have a friend that you know will always be there for you no matter what, someone different from all your other friends.
ehh, so what do you guys think? |

hmm.. i think a person doesn't need a BEST friend.. but at least one friend that they can trust.. someone to talk to .. but don't have to call them a best friend.. if i find someone with out a friend then i'll be glad to be that person they always talk to.. but yet.. they are not my best friend
Knowing someone for so long .. doesn't mean ur best friends.. BEST FRIENDS is wen two ppl decide on it.. and they are lyk brothers and/or sisters and they can tell each other everything and no one could get mad.. that's what i define best friend.. |

well you don't exactly NEED a bestfriend, but it'll be nice to have one, so you can share everything with the other person.

I have tons of best friends, and sure alot of them support me when i feel like im alone, the worlds against me, i have no chance.... all that bull shit. Its nice having people u can talk to about anything.
But they dont necessarly have to be best friends. Are they important though? People are important, not the title u give em |

I've got friends who help me when I need them, but I guess I don't have ONE best friend. I always wished that I did though, after I go to a diff. school or smth, I always lose contact.

Sometimes you have to be your own best friend....you cant be co-dependent on others to make your life happy. However, I do agree having someone to be there is nice but some people (like your friend, it seems) seem more comfortable having their guard up and not letting people get to close. Some people are just like that and you have to accept it until they're willing to open up.

I think it's important to have a best friend...well sometimes in life you might be on your own & thats not bad but I feel better when I have a best friend to talk to..someone who can keep my secrets..I can let out all my anger on & they won't be mad at me & also someone who can talk to me & keep my company & make me laugh..& I can jusst be myself around...& they're always there when you need physical & moral support!!...(& the feeling is one of the best feelings in the world)..

Its not really that important or necessary because even a BFF can betray you, so I think its important to have trust worthy friends that you can consider family instead of bff

best friends aren't necessary, but it is definitely not a bad thing to have one.

 You can't keep running from what you're trying to find. Group: Official Member Posts: 5,030 Joined: Oct 2004 Member No: 54,096 |
you dont exactly need one, but it's really nice to. sometimes there are things that you can only tell your best friend alone.
there's a quote that goes like 'the world is a cold and scary place to be without a best friend'. (something like that anyway)

I gave up on best friends a while ago. I don't have a best friend, I've never had one. It's just that it's hard for me to keep friends, and sometimes it makes me feel like shit. Sure, I have a couple of close friends (like 1 or 2) but I'm starting to feel like we're drifting apart and once highschool starts, we might like forget about each other. I know, not very good friends... but remember that friends will come and go and that people change and the person you were BEST friends with in kindergarten might not be the same person they were in kindergarten.

ive seen this problem before. this guy i used to know used to have best friends but one of them started talking behind his back and he just suddenly gave up. but i think its great to have a best friend. someone who's always there for you. but if your have a family like mine, that moves alot because my dad is in the navy, then it might not be a good idea to get really attached. but still, it's always great to have a best friend =)

Hmm, well I use to have best friends, and I admit it is great. But currently I don't have a best friend, just alot of really good friends. There are a certain few that I favor over others,though. I don't think you need to have a best friend,but it's always great if you have one you can trust.

No...You don't need a best friend. I think it's actually better to just have a group of like, 5 or so friends that you're really close to, because a lot of times, you and the best friend drift apart or something happens, and it's easier to heal if you have 4 more friends that were just as close than 4 friends that weren't nearly as close to you...
I hope that made sense to someone besides myself. |

You don't need one. But its good to have one. It depends what kind of person you are. Are you the kind who'd hang out with them each they do everything together. Or the kind where you all hang out, and you'd just talk to whichever one you felt you were closer to.

It's good to have one. Someone that you can trust. Just be careful on who you trust, and if they're worth your trust.

yes b/c they really know you from what you hate/ what you like/ they know everything about you.. and the best part is that they always have your back, and always there to talk to =) but life isnt perfect; you'll sometimes get into fights

Hmmm...I don't really have a single best friend. I've got an elite group of friends who I can tell anything.

i think it's not a neccesity, but it's always nice to have that one person you can always depend on. life's a pretty bumpy ride, and it's nice to have someone right next to you screaming their head off. friends of anysort are always a plus. :)
