True friendship takes and comes with time, then you know how honest you are with each other, and what you have been through together, until then appreciate what you like in the other and try not to expect as expectations are the product of your need/ insecurity. Of course if you are treated poorly or back stabbed your answer is in front of you.

I would ask him straight out whether it is true or not.  Rumours have a nasty habit of being either completely false or only tell one side of the story.  Asking one of his close friends may be a good option, but bear in mind if it is one of HIS good friends their first loyalty is to him not you and they may not want to tell you the truth if they think it will cause problems for him later.  Also remember that maybe it is true but it may not be a black and white story.  Work out what you are prepared to accept and don't make any decisions on the spot.  Let him know upfront you will have to consider the situation before you give him an answer.\n\nGood luck!

A true friend is always there.  Good bad ugly.\nA true friend will tell you when you have spinach in your teeth & laugh with you about it.  \nA true friend can take critism as well as give construtive critism.  Now that doesn't mean that he/she will take any advise you give but they will listen and consider it.

Well ask her for her surname. Whether she's tellin the truth or not, she will give u a surname. Then try to find her on "Friends Reunited" website. Then see if the info matches what she told u. Asides from this, I dont know any other way u can find out. Not bein funny here, but how come u hav never met her?

Someone I can trust with my life, secrets and woes.\n\nA friend is some who is always there for you at any time of the day or night.\n\nThey laugh with you, when things are good. \n\nLet you cry on their shoulder when your down or sad, and even cry with you when things are really bad. \n\nAnd expect NOTHING but your friendship and loyalty in return.\n\nBut of course you would be there in an instant when they needed you!

get someone to feed them some false information (or do it yourself) but something that they could believe, something small and trivial. if you hear the stuff that you made up back from someone else then you'll know. people can be really jealous of others and unless you hear the same thing from two people that don't know each other then i suggest that you take it with a grain of salt.\ntry the suggestion above, it works. a real friend should come right to you and tell you. or keep your trust.

You are defined by your character.  Everything you say and do speaks to character.   If you are consistent, your friends know you character, and that's how they will describe you...by your actions.

Unfortunately the only way to know if someone is a true genuine friend is time, be protective of yourself, and keep private things to you and the ones you KNOW you can trust, Those who are less genuine are masters at deception and is why many get hurt by trusting too soon. So by knowing this maybe you can keep your self safe from this more often.

Dont u think that u r a gud friend if u dont think so first ask your self first about it let your heart decide whether u r or u r not A GUD FRIEND AND u definately a answer if there isnt then make your friends believe u and once u gain there trust u should not break it u also hav to see the person if he is a person whum u want to make friends try to make your own individuality and u will see the results and definately u will find your true friends and remember true friends are not very easy to but true friends are easy to lose and always have control while u r talking coz if u say something wrong then evry things will b ruined and if u want u can e-mail me at rituevergreen@yahoo.com i m ritu i will b happy this is ritu and thank u best of luck and take care bye

That depends on who and what you call friends.  A true friend has to start with being one yourself. A true friend will never leave you and will always be there through the good and the bad. :)

There are many different types of friends - soul mates, party mates, dependable mates and those fair weather mates.  All have a personal value you place on them depending on how theyve treated you, helped you, or how you feel for them.  People can say they are your friend but only you can decide over time wether they really are!!And remember we test each other to truly see if a friend is a friend so if a friend pushes you into something you are not comfortable with - be the true friend you would want and tell them - its probably what they want to hear!(Always trust your instinct)

My best friend is an excellent liar, he's lied to me so many times that I reallly don't think that I will ever know just how much he's lied to me.  The good thing is that I know the way he is now so I now know not to trust him immediately.  In the back of my mind there is always the thought that he could be lying to me.  So I simply don't trust him any more.   I don't know if this helped you or not.  If other people see your friend as a liar then it might be true.  Just go with your gut feeling.

What do you want to do? How about the person that told you whatever what said? Was the info. true or not? Do you believe in your friend?\nOne thing I do know from experience is that a true friend will never two face you. My sister, mom, brother, dad true friends have said things about me but in real concern. Sometimes it pisses me off but they have the right to love me. And if someone came to me and repeat their private conversation to make it gossip I would dump their butt, because i do trust "MY" judgment for a friend. So where do you stand with these friends.

you can just tell by looking into their eyes... by their actions.  if they are honest they will never avert your gaze or make up lame excuses. they will always return your phone call right away and try to be involved in your life as much as possible
