What quality do you value most in a friend?

View all responses

I value all of my friendships. However, they all serve me differently. I have friends I talk to almost everyday and I have friends I talk to months apart from each other. I don’t love any of them differently, but I understand that we are all different people. One thing I value the most about my friends is their understanding of who I am. Whenever I face adversity, I disconnect from everything. Most people are offended when I do this, but my friends understand that that’s how I deal with issues.

I appreciate when my friends give me the space that I need to process difficult situations. After, we get back together and build each other up. I love my friendships, however; I feel like I could definitely be a better friend.

I will go months without speaking to my friends because I get so caught up in my life. I know my friends are not upset by it, but I feel that I can be better. I’m going to challenge myself the rest of this week to check on all of my friends. We sometimes get so caught up in our own lives that we forget about others.

This week, take some time out and check on your friends. Let me know how that goes in comments.

Until next time ..
