Greetings everyone. I'm glad to participate in this hiveghana weekly prompt “Friendship”
Friendship, to me, isn't just about having people to hang out with, it's about finding those who bring out the best in you. I don't really chase friendships; I let them grow naturally. But with time, I've learned to recognise the kind of energy I want around me because I don't really believe having many friends around you, what I believe most is to have genuine friends that can stay by your side when the tough time comes.
There's some friendships that have turned into family they're not see themselves as friends, they see themselves as their family in the way they interact with each other. Because friendship must beyond what we achieve from each other we must be able to stand for ourselves when things tough that's the essence of friendship, well some friends just they roll with you because what can gain from you, is not that they like you but it because what you can offer for them that's why they like you.
My main criteria for friendship are honesty, loyalty, and mutual respect, this what I mostly believe in when I want to choose a friend, before I can be a friend to someone this all the criteria I just to check, because I believe that “A friend in need is a indeed."
How I know that I've made the right friendship is when I feel peace, not pressure. When we can be ourselves with pretending, and when our bond feels like home,when both can help ourselves without telling others, that's when I know that I have chosen the right choice of a friendship.
I remember some years back, I have a friend then, these and my friend will also close to the extent that we more than friends we have become family, because we use to do things together, maybe he find any update before he tells anyone about the update, he will first inform me about that and likewise me as well, what I love most about our friendship is we use to push ourselves to success, because we don't like anyone among us to lack behind.
I remember when things tough for me some years back and I don't want to ask my friend for anything, I was on this thinking and the call of friend come in and Instantly I picked the call and he told me that he has and opportunities of land and he want me to buy also and I laugh at him that I don't have any money even I told him that I haven't eat since morning and he was angry with me that why do I not told him before, and before I know it he sent ₦100,000 he told me that I use it to get foodstuffs at home, I was so happy that day, so that's the definition of true friendship.

I’m not sure if I have gotten monetary for my friends the way I normally show up for them because I just feel like I shouldn’t be expecting anything from anybody because nobody owes me anything so if you have that kind of friendship you should keep them close, they are hard to find.
Thanks
