1. Think about what you can give to a friend – and not about what you can get from them.

2. Encourage your friend to be all that they can be, and to reach the goals they have set for themselves.

3. Don’t hold grudges. Forgive and move on.

4. Tactfully point out any serious concerns – but only raise them once, and then leave it up to them.

5. Be reliable. This shows that you’re a faithful and trustworthy friend.

6. Don’t be controlling. Real friends allow each other to think for themselves, and make their own decisions and to do their own thing. Also, they’re flexible and willing to negotiate.

7. Be there when things are good and be there when things are bad – and always try to understand what friends are going through.

8. Accept that we’re all different- and your friends are not your clones. They won’t always thinks and want the same things as you.

9. Don’t gossip - and don’t share what a friend has shared with you. A secret is a secret – don’t compromise their trust.
