True friends.............

bgjohn

How many true friends do you have?
JM[?]

bgjohn

I'm talking about the one who would jump into the pond with his pocket knife to kill the alligator who is trying to eat you.
JM

bgjohn

The one who would suck the rattlesnake venom out of your * after you were bit.

All others are aquaintences !

remingtonoaks

not a one. but have lots that i'd do that for

bgjohn

Yeah, aquaintences stand and watch while you deal with the problem.

Most I've drifted away from. Where I live now None.

Most I run into now are nothing more than Leaches.

A couple that I rode with in the PGR are different, they go out of their way to help. Asking nothing in return.

I think I am in the same boat. I have one who would help if I was outnumbered 25-1 in a bar fight. But I think he just likes to fight. But at 25-2 we would probably win.

I have three friends,been w/me all my life.They're the three charities I give to frequently also.
They're Me, Myself, and I.
everyone else wuld rather be just an aquaintance. My ex-wife was a friend then she changed her mind.

Friends help you move.
Real friends help you move the body.

tomahawk

none that will go as far , and as fast as i will

JamesRK

I had a friend like that, but his wife murdered him about forty years ago. I guess I could count my brother and wife in that category, but brothers and wives aren't really friends.

PTHEIM

bgjohn,
I kinda had somethin' like that.
25th high scholl reunion last year,the few guys I hung with all the time didn't hang to chat but the guys and gals that seemed to not care for me then all wanted to pow-wow and I did. Had an ok time. There's an all alumni reunion at the end of July I'm still debating on.

But you got friends on here, no?

chappsyny

None in the past 8 years. Color me antisocial.

A friend you can call at 3:00 AM to bail your * out of jail. A true friend will be sitting in the next cell with you saying "Damn, she didn't look like no cop did she".

rovrman

1....my wife....she's my best friend
I can't count on anyone else, period!!

Tflogger

Other than my wife, my brother and my dog? One, after 48 years of hanging out and getting in trouble together, what does more trouble matter?

skeens41

my wife[:)] who is also my huntin and fishing partner. she wont let anything happen to me, i pay the bills

dcinffxva

Fortunate enough to have 3, known them all for at least 25 years.

2

ChetStafford

the only 2 people that I would class as true friends are unfortunately passed away.

Other than these two I trusted no one completly. Every time I do trust someone they crap on me and show me the error in my ways[V]

204targetman

I guess my wife is my only true friend. Some others rank up there. But dont know about them if the chips where down. So I'll go with 1.

wsfiredude

I'm talking about the one who would jump into the pond with his pocket knife to kill the alligator who is trying to eat you.

I honestly believe there are a few on here who would do just that.
They know who they are.[;)]

Horse Plains Drifter

Used to have two, but I'm thinkin' one might be slipping off the list.

givette

True Friends! Do I really have any...?

..using your criteria, I have none.

However, with the little things in life, and always being there for me, I'd say I'm a very lucky person to have many. Best, Joe

24fan

I've had two real friends since thirde grade (Jed & Bill).
Bill died a few years ago in a accident, but Jed and I still talk almost every day (we're 38 know). Jed and I are both married, he has a 6 year old boy I have a 4 year old girl. We hunt,fish,shoot,golf,
4 wheel,play cards,drink, or just do nothing. My best friend and proud to know him.

Ox190

I can think of 8 quickly. I don't surround myself with people I wouldn't die for and who wouldn't do the same for me. I've been fortunate to make friends other people would love to have whether they know it or not. We've been out of high school 10 years and even though some of us live 5-6 hours apart if something happened we'd be there for each other asap.

Just one, my 1911.[:D]
