Friendship is a sheltering tree.

~ Samuel Taylor Coleridge



Sincere and Superficial Friends

Sincere Friends...

Know my feelings.

Reveal to me how they feel.

Teach me about myself.

Are comfortable with silence.

Feel free to tell me the truth.

Give me the freedom to fail.

Love me for who I am.


Superficial Friends...

Know only the facts about me.

Tell me what they've done.

Tell me about others.

Feel awkward with silence.

Would leave me if I let them down.

Love me for what I can do.
