Due to selfishness,altruism,desperation and other moral vices,
the real meaning of "friend" is slowly but significantly drifting from the social norm.
Personally, I find it confusing when it comes to defining my relationship with people around me. though, I generally refer to everyone close to me as a friend,but i sure know that many are a 100% undeserving of the word.
...The dictionary has the definition of the word "friend" as it does for all other recognised words.
But, the pause comes when people we consider/call friends don't behave in any way
as they ought to.
...owing to this crab,what is ur difinition of a friend..?

When we honestly ask ourselves which person in our lives means the most us, we often find that it is those who, instead of giving much advice, solutions, or cures, have chosen rather to share our pain and touch our wounds with a gentle and tender hand. The friend who can be silent with us in a moment of despair or confusion, who can stay with us in an hour of grief and bereavement, who can tolerate not knowing, not curing, not healing and face with us the reality of our powerlessness, that is a friend who cares. - Henri Nouwen

A friend is that person: who tells you the truth, even when it would hurt your feelings; who doesn't hide anything you need to know from you; who hangs around after a tragic incidence even when he knows he doesn't have to; who gets your jokes; who's your partner in crime; who doesn't steal your money.
