Is there a point to how loyal you should be whether to a person or other?

Stick to your own beliefs. This is hard, because it means that you can lose friends, but in the future, it will attract the friends who share your beliefs as well. \n\nIf you feel uncomfortable with a friend's requests, it's okay to say no. It doesn't mean you don't like them or you can't be friends, you are allowed to have your viewpoints and follow them for yourself. \n\nIf you are feeling used, coerced, manipulated, forced, uncomfortable in any way, these are red flag signals which mean that you need to assert yourself and do what's right for you.

Just to throw it out there...\n    "As selfish as it sounds, I would betray my friend for any feasible reason." Throughout history, it has been demonstrated that any person is capable of betraying their most personal companion. It is with this in mind that I assume the inherent evil in all persons; with this assumption, it is reasonable to treat all "friends" as a potential enemy- given the incentive, they will break the deepest bonds.\n\n-Just a start, but if this is anywhere near where you're trying to go with the essay, I can modify with ease.

Good to know I am not the only gullible, trusting, honest person out here.  I wouldn't want to change to be more like them as I sleep better at night knowing I did not try to screw someone out of their self worth.  Also, it will catch up with them in the end, as they will want happiness, but it will not come.  Being like WE are also makes me strong in my convictions, which people like THEM are not.  We can stand for what we want, love, believe in, hate, etc.  They live a lie all the time, they are what everyone wants them to be.  It would suck to be that way to me, as being myself makes me so much more independent.

That is right, 100% correct. Many people say things but it is easier to say them than to do them. They can say many things but it is because that is not them in that position. I'm glad that there are people like you who understand  this.Yes you can be loyal to two countries. It is soooo sad that people say that they could do be only loyal to America and forget their native country if they were in this position, saying that is just a plain big lie. It makes me so angry seeing people saying , "yes I could do that" when in REALITY then know that they do not, could not, would not, do that, even if they say they can.\n It is just like speaking two languages, you can never forget your mother  because well, it is your mother language! You can happy, interested, grateful and proud of speaking the other language, and maybe you would even speak it more than your mother language but yet you can not forget the language in which you grew with. It is the same, You can be loyal to two countries, just like you can speak two languages, and many people could say that I'm comparing apples with oranges but I do not care because what  I have said is true. YOU CAN BE LOYAL TO TWO COUNTRIES.I wish I could get that through some people's brain.

It depends, whether or not they are safe there. I don't think we should sacrifice our common history just to satisfy one people’s pride or greed.

No\n\nBecause if people don't like me for being me than they don't need to be around be.*\n\nAlways be yourself.

There is little advice anybody can give you.  You have to want to trust somebody and be able to do it on your own judgement and values.

Forgive and trust and again.  Not everyone is like that.  Some people simply do not have a concept of loyalty and faithfulness.

If you'll base relationships on birth signs then you are stepping out from reality. Truth is if you want a workable (perfect doesn't exist) relationship, you should look for someone who could give you two things -RESPECT and LOYALTY- then everything else follows. How to know if he has them? 50 % is You won't, you will have to take chances or maybe trust is a better term and the other 50 % is you'll just know in time by just observing.

Always trust. Trust in yourself first and foremost. People who don't trust by rule of thumb are not trustworthy themselves - or a total pain in the ass. But be conscious and aware, some people will burn you. Never don't give up on trust. Earning it is a gift and makes life worth living!

Do you have opinions of your own? Stick with your friend. You don't make friends for political purposes. You be true to the people who are true to you. Loyalty. \nNo one wants to be friends with the person who keeps on ditching their friends.

You sure do have the right idea.  Very few actually understand just who they are.  To do the most good for others then it is best to do the best you can for yourself.  Don't think you are selfish by taking care of you first.  In most cases if you don't no one else will.
