Friendship

[Bugz]

What do you, as an individual, define friendship as?

This thought occured to me today when I was started on and my two mates, who id consider good friends, literally sat back and did nothing. Afterwards, they just offered me their sympathy as though, 'yeah, it was harsh mate but shit happens.'

In your view of this situation, would you consider these two fellows friends?

Do you think friends should stand out for one another at all costs or do you leave the individual to sort out his own problems.

Discuss.

It's harsh that they didn't do anything, I will help me friends no matter what but some people see it as "I'd rather him get beaten up then me", dosn't mean there not a real friend.

 

[old.Tohtori]

Met people, friends, good friends.

I wouldn't call anyone who wouldn't stand up for you your friend.

Their just bystanders.

Depends on what you did - even my best mates know if they act a knobhead and someone chins them - if they deserve it I won't stop it.. However if one of my mates got jumped by 50 lads for no reason they know they can count on me to stand side by side with them - which did almost happen once - came out of a nightclub years ago and saw someone getting battered by about 10 lads, they were on the floor getting kicked and all sorts of nastiness, I recognised the shirt as one my mate had on - he had left a bit early to take a girl "around the back of the club" - in more ways than one I imagine. So I grabbed a couple of the lads and threw them outta the way and started swinging at every chin I could see til I got to the lad, picked him up off the floor whilst getting smacked myself, then realised it wasn't my mate...had a serious dilemma then - not knowing him and what he had done - do i leave him or get him out of there - luckily a bunch of lads who knew me and saw me in the ruck managed to grab me and the lad out of it and it all ended there... and about 30 seconds later from around the corner came my mate with the girl in tow - I couldve chinned him myself - had a split lip, couple of cuts etc - wasnt happy I just took a twatting for some random whom I didnt even know for what reason he was getting a twatting....

Friendship is about trust more than anything else, if you can't trust them they aint ya friends.

yeh i would define friendship as trust too

 

[Amanita]

I've fought for friends myself, but never had anyone do the same for me except my sisters.

It depends now, if your confidence in them is shattered then there's work to be done on the friendship.

*Smacks you with a hammer then buys your a beer with your own money* =D

(Yes, I know Gotrag IRL, so no abusing!)


It is more trust than anything, somebody you can count on if you need them. Only way to explain it.

Wow I actually thought it was going to be a post telling everyone the story of how I'm such a great friend :/

Human relationships are only temporary, people will always stab you in the back, it's natural.

Not true and extremely situational.

a friend in need is a friend indeed if friends want ya to break the law for em, step back don't do it

 

[Neffneff]

a true friend, would stand up for you, at least alongside you, they would be there no matter what (as long as you havnt been a prick anyway, but that's another chapter), they would stand alongside you in an un-wanted fight, even if they we're only built like the dude from the "mr muscle" adverts.

a friend that "conveniently dissappears" isnt a friend, he's a leech, ditch them.

 

[GimmlyTheDorf]

They are not real good friends, I helped my friends 3 v 20 and they have helped me even if it meant getting a kicking. But you are still only young anyway and most kids are scared at that age so I wouldn't worry about friends till 16-17.

But if it was 1v1 and it wasn't a 4ft skinny guy v a 7ft Arnold swarchenegger(sp?) no would intervene, it all depends on the factors really.

Yes as stupid as it may sound it was in the heat of the moment and I was wasted anyway, and I actually didn't get badly hurt there is one bid thing about Cornwall, everyone fights in large groups

Ps Pip I wub u.

 

[Bugz]

Well, in this case, it would have been 2 vs 1 had it escalated into anything more (and I would have got annihilated xD). Even a 'leave it out' or something would've been nice but I simply get the feeling everyone just looks out for themselves. It was a real shock to me since I had actually helped them out not too long ago.

If the feeling isn't being reciprocated, should I bother? :/

I wouldn't worry about it at that age mate there all pussys , worry about it when you leave school and you get into a real fight.

 

[Elkie]

My mates useally only help me when outnumbered as im capable of handling myself fine but if i deserved to get the crap beaten out of me then they wont help and i dont mind that as if its my fault then i deserve getting jumped by 3-4 people

Has not happened yet thoe as i dont get mouthy to people or start on people for no reason


PS. Bugz i dont suggest fighting to you unles its the absolute last resource you do it in school you risk getting expelled and if you do it on the streets youl have the Police on you

doriboor, maybe if you werent such a twat people wouldnt stab you in the back.

friends are the people you can 100% trust, i can probably count 5 people who fit into that slot, though ofc i have many more other not so close friends.

You've turned into a right police man on fh lately . I had plenty of fights in school and never got chucked out and I was bad bad bad in school lol. The only way you can get people off you're back is by giving them a good kicking. If you pussy out you will regret it for the rest of you're school years.

Yes fine get ass back in game gimp

Ill see you in War if goa don't ruin it. :england:

Ive had plenty of fights but never in school had load out of school but never went to the police, but when you fight someone should always let em hit you first as they get charged with assult and you are using self defence

I agree with Gimmly here in some respects, some people at school will keep on pushing untill you finally fight back, give them a good hiding and it will stop, in soem cases you can even gane respect not that you would want it but it does happen.
