Friendship to me is one of the most important relationships you can have. If you choose wisely, your friends will stay with you for the rest of your life. You can’t choose your family, but you can choose your friends, and they become like family. Do you have close friends? Do you value your friendships? Are you a good friend?

I have fairly close friends but not like some people, I do value them and I'm a goodish friend. I far prefer my family though and they get the best of me.

I think I’m probably a pretty shit friend at the moment and I think I’ve prioritised friends I have sex with in my limited free time.

Friends are important to me and I think I need to prioritise those platonic relationships more.

1) Yes

2) Yes

3) Difficult to "self-verify". It's probably something those friends could answer better to a third party.

And..

4) Anyone seen a goat? (It's not mine)

Absolutely yes.

My friends are deeply important to me.

We may go months without talking at times, and even then it might just be a quick exchange of memes. But I know they have my back if I need it, and they know they have my support whenever they need it

Absolutely friendship is key in life and one if the most important relationships you can foster. I keep my circle of friends small and would literally sacrifice anything for them. You can choose your friends, so choose wisely.

Can you really choose your friends? I know you can choose to not be friends with someone but can you actively choose to be someone's friend?

Not entirely sure what constitutes close friendships, but yes I value friendships and I'd hope I'm a good friend. I'm there for my friends if they needed me or wanted to have a chat or anything.

Not if they don't want to be your friend.

But then, why would you want someone in your life who didn't want to be there anyway?

I wouldn't but plenty seem to.

I think you can choose your friends to an extent but the choice is very limited

Yes. You can't expect or make them to be you're friend as that would take away their sovereignty and freedom, but you can interact with people and if something comes out of it, great.

Basically then you can choose friends from a bunch of people who want to choose you...or someone like you?
