Are They a True Friend.

   True friends are hard to come by, but will remain in your heart no matter where life takes you. They may not be the people you see everyday, or even every week, but they will be there for you whenever you need them. True friends love you for who you are, and don't abandon you when things get too tough.

True friends love and accept you for who you are. They don't try to change you, yet they have a uniquely subtle way of encouraging you to be better; and expect the same from you. Anyone who allows someone to continue harmful or destructive behavior is not being much of a friend, even when the other person doesn't see it as being harmful.
