I swear, from my experience friendships form when I least expect them. If I'm looking for friends, I never have any luck. If I'm keeping to myself, somehow I always manage to grow close to someone. - Same experience with relationships. the second I decide I want to rep the single life, I start talking to Ms Right for the 4051st time this year.

Trying to define how friendships form is tough, the matter is so subjective. As to why they end, that also takes some working out, even down to on a given day you may let something pass and on another day you would wring their neck.

A good friendship will survive many setbacks, it takes a lot to truly destroy that and this is very different from people who simply drift apart. I have gone years without talking to some of my friends and when we re unite, it's as if there was never a break.

You tend to know when it is right and when it is time to say goodbye. You will be hurt deepr by those you hold close than any enemy, but it is sometimes worth seeing beyond the act and understand the motive. They can't be tamed, these wilder things.

I don't find it hard to make new friends because, I don't know, people always approach me first, both in real life and in RuneScape. I always try to create a memory with my friends so they cannot forget me.

The only sad thing about my friendships is most of them don't last long. I have friends who moved to other places all the times. After I graduated from high school, I only had like four friends left. Yep, after high school was when I really got into RuneScape because most of my friendships in college were solely casual.

The nice thing about having RuneScape friends is that you don't see the people who are your friends so you always judge
(should use a better word because no one has the right to judge anyone)
them by their inner selves, not how they look like.

I also pick friend very carefully on RuneScape just like I do in real life. My rule of thumb is to always see a person as a stranger for a week before accepting him/her as a friend. I would rather not have a friend at all than have one who would try to scam me.

Tough question for me. I have a few friends on runescape, I don't share anything in common with them. We talk when they need help..so I help. Irl friends,I don't have ..so I can't say :p . I always wanted a friend who thinks exactly the way as I do though.

Is there anything that if a friend does, you should automatically stop being friends with that person such as starts smoking, breaks the law, gets a tatoo, piercing?
this is the most absurdly shallow, i would not become friends with someone who holds views like this, and in regards to the question, if someone is important to me almost nothing they can do will make me want to stop being friends with them

Theboxking said :
how did you meet your friends, and how did your friendships form with them, this thread is to talk all about friendship! yay!
by playing runescape is how i met the people i talk to irl now, but of the friends i have in aus probably that someone was being a dick to them and i didnt feel like doing nothing about it

Theboxking said :
what makes a good friend?
the ability to put up with my absolutely absurd idea of what a friend is and how annoying i can be when im concerned about people
