(6,581 posts)2. Ah, not always.
I've made some right here on DU. They know who they are.
I was also like to add, a true friend is one who calls you out on your bullshit and won't let you get away with it.

(72,300 posts)3. Yes, you are correct.
There are some wonderful people here on DU.
I'm grateful for everyone that I can call my friend.
I love the ones who call me on my bullshit.
It gives us time to share thoughts.
Sometimes we both learn from it.

My closest friends are really my family members. I don't really hang out with anyone from work and I don't even know my neighbors.
C'mere, dawg.

Family members can be the best friends of all.
