Most people talk about friendships, study partners and all and I often hear them mentioning certain things like, being honest, lively, kind, brilliant and the likes. In as much as all of those are good, for me it goes beyond just that.
Looking back at all the friends I have ever had, I can see that those who really proved to really true and stay aren't the most brilliant or funniest, thy were those who really understand me, they are those who can really notice a change in me, those who can see when I'm tired. A God friend or study partner is not someone who has answers to every question, but a patient person who can really explain that which you don't understand without making you feel less, someone who can really understand you am take his/her time to make you see things. They are the real ones, they share knowledge without acting all knowing or showing any sign of pride.
Now, trust is important. It's not possible to be free around someone you can't trust. A friend or study partner should be someone you can be free around, someone who can keep your secrets, not someone who use your weakness against you or go about the school the next day telling people how hard it is for you to pronounce a certain word or solve an equation.
I am someone who often rate people, you can hold value and you can be of less value with me, I value people who don't compete with others just so to prove they are more better, I value people who don't act all big all because they are better academically, I value people who encourage you so both of you can grow together, I value people who don't act all good before you and then table your matter when you not there.
When we talk about people too, we should know that consistent people are people to hold dear too, they don't just show up when it's easy and all rosy, they are there for you during the bad times too. They are not re type who disappear when you really need them, they are the ones who will encourage you, they will keep you going and never leave you to be on your own.
Also, I look out for those who aren't too serious, yes. I like people who can put breaks in-between study time, we joke, laugh and all. Such people will help you see life beyond just passing your exams, they would make you see reasons to be always available and show up. They are the real ones who make the journey really worth it, with such people you get the feeling of that togetherness.
So, those are just the qualities I look out for, someone who listens, who laugh, don't backbite, is trustworthy, peaceful and not make me feel less of myself. Good friends or study partners goes beyond living for now or helping to pass an exam, but they help you grow into a better version of yourself.

You have such great taste in choosing your friends and study partners and I think it's very important if we want to go ahead in life.
We need those who can match our energy, push us to be better and as well be there for us when it really matters, most especially in a school environment.
