I consider myself to be both. Its not unusual to have periods of not being in contact, I should phone people more but I'm always there if people need anything and they know they can rely on me.

Loyal to a fault.

Know when to listen and when to shut up.

Always there if needed, even if I am just silent in the background when you need to find it out for yourself but you need my strength.

Will hold your hair back if you have had too much to drink.

Will rescue you any time day or night.

And a whole host of other things that when being a friend should just come natural.

I am a good friend i'm truthful, kind , i always listen them, i never let them behind or down , i protect them more than anything because they know they can trust me. Of course all this because i deeply trust them but once the trust is broken i just walk away and i never look back .

Yes. My friends are an extension of my family. I am ferociously loyal to those who have earned the right to call themselves my friend. In my time I've been locked up, stabbed, had my car take corners on 3 wheels, drawn blood and more for my friends.

One time I sat on the edge of a 15 storey building with my legs hanging over the edge for 2 hours because my friend was suicidal. He's fine now and we laugh about that moment. But at the time I shit enough bricks to build a new building.

So. There is a small elite group of people I call friend, and I'm proud of them all.

Associates. Or people I know that's a different thing. There are many of them

In answer to the question am I a good friend? Totally. Because my friends are good friends to me. In my world friend is a title that is earned not given.

I'd like to think I can be but then we all like to think that don't we? I know I can be a bit needy at times, I don't often up properly to people, I can get irritated by daft things... but I do genuinely care about people. I'm not a headfuck which is something, I will always make time for my friends and listen to them for hours if need be and I'm loyal to them. I try and treat them with the kindness I'd like to be shown. And as a bonus, I don't get vomiting, sloppy d*unk so I can hold back your hair if you're that sort.

Not many people get past all of my defences to be in the inner circle that I would class as true friends - I have lots of acquaintances, but not many people that have earnt my full trust.

For those that do get there, I am the most loyal, generous, honest, thoughtful and protective friend, I'll do anything to help a friend in need or to make them feel better when they're having a bad time.

But, I'm also really crap at keeping in touch, I worry about them to the point I'm forever asking if they're okay, and I can be a proper diva at times.

So, I guess I'm a good friend and a bad friend all rolled into one

There and to the left a bit

You'd have to ask my friends if they think I am or not

All I can say is that I try to be, try to do the best I possibly can for them, listen to them when they need an ear, leave them to themselves when they need to be, laugh with them and cry with them, and yes tell them when I think they're wrong as well as when they are right.

If that and more makes me a good friend then that's great but I'm not the one to make the judgement.
