They will be with you as long as you have money or luck, but when you are down, they will run away. How do I know when I have found a good friend?

He is also a good listener.At the same time, a good friend is honest. He does not look for faults in others. He notices their good points. In short, a friend will try to understand me and accept me.Another quality of a friend is reliability. I can always depend on a good friend. If he tells me he will meet me somewhere at a certain time, I can be sure that he will be there. If I need a favor, he will do his best to help me.
