FRIENDS vs "FRIENDS"

You may want to re-evaluate the people that surrounds you. Just because you see, hang-out and talk to each other on a daily basis, doesn't mean you are friends. Well, you may think you are "FRIENDS" but you're really not. anlabo ba??

I've thought of some pointers, criteria or aspects -whatever you wanna call it-  that may help you SCREEN or EVALUATE these people around you.

• one major player here is MONEY. siguro almost everyone a-agree. I am very sure we've all gone through this. If not personally, i know we all know a person, who knew a person who fell-out-of-"friendship" because of money matters. It's really sad that your relationship with a certain "friend" will fall apart just because of financial issues. Yung iba siguro sasabihin: PERA LANG YAN. HINDI DAPAT PINAG-AAWAYAN." Well, it's not just about the money. When you lend someone monetary help, you are also giving away your trust. At pag hindi tumupad sa usapan yung impakto mong kaibigan at hindi ka binayaran, you're not just disappointed because of the money. You're disappointed because that person BROKE your TRUST. #hugot *may pinagdadaanan yata si ateyy* hahahaha Anyway, let's just all move-on & hope maka-alala ang mga hampas-lupang yan. CHARAUGHT!!!
• Another question to ponder is "Am I just feeling the presence of my "FRIEND" when he/she needs something? Eto na si JOHN MICHAEL. anJOHN lang pag MICHAELangan! Mejo self-explanatory naman na siguro 'to.
• TRANSPARENCY- How sure are you na totoo sa'yo ang "friend" mo? Kaya mo bang i-pusta ang dalawa mong kidney at sabihin sa'kin na wala syang sinasabi against you behind your back? O takot kang tumalikod kasi alam mo na the moment you turned your back ikaw na ang topic ng usapan? REAL FRIENDS STAB YOU IN THE FRONT. Oh well...

 We can never learn who our real friends are not until andun na tayo sa sitwasyon na gipitan na. Sabi nga ni Edmond Mbiaka (Hindi ko sya kilala, natuwa lang ako sa saying nya. HAHA!)

“One can never tell whose one's true friends really are until one hits rock bottom.”
