Every Woman Needs a Friend That…

We all need a friend who we know compliments who we are and there are certain things that every woman needs to have in a friend. The moment we connect with someone it is because we are comfortable and see a trait in them that reminds of us of ourselves. We need to find something that connects us to each other. What should we be looking for?

• She should be able to tell you the truth regardless of your temporary moment of denial. We all need someone to tell us when we are acting outside of ourselves or be honest about the ugly dress that we thought was just too cute to pass up. We need her.
• She should be loyal. She will be there when all is well and when all falls down. She will not throw you under the bus to make herself look good nor will she betray your friendship at any cost. She will be there no matter what. We need her.
• She should be able to listen to how you feel without judgment. Being judgmental and being honest is two totally different things and she will know the difference. Even if she thinks you are making a huge mistake she will offer sound advice, not tear you down with a judgmental tone. We need this girl.
• She should love you unconditionally. She will love you beyond a friendship, she will love you with her heart, so much that she will not let harm come your way. She will protect you from messy women who don't know you, she won't front you off for another friendship, she will treasure your friendship in cherish its uniqueness. She doesn't pit you against her other friends, you possess a piece of her life that is sacred to her; she needs you just as much as you need her. We love her.
• She should be able to support you. If you are ready for a change, she wants to do what to do to get you there, she sacrifices her time to help you, she motivates you to be the best you can be and she is there to celebrate your successes. We need her.

We all need a friend who is happy to friends with you and not feel like it's a chore. Friendships should be fun and easy to maintain. The reality is that they're not always manageable. As with any relationship they require work and time. We get to know each other over time, we grow together with time, and we become more solid with time. Each friendship we cultivate should be a learning experience. We should become better with each passing day from what we gain from our friendships. Know what type of friends you have in your corner and treat them like gold, true friendships are hard to find and keep, so hold on to the ones that are genuine.
