Finding friends is, in many cases, no easy task; especially given the culture we live in. The cell phone, text messaging, Facebook and Twitter based friendships have defined a new level of relationships.  Finding your friends isn’t as easy as it seems but, like all good things, is definitely worth the work!

So, how do you tell if someone is the right material to be your new boyfriend or girlfriend? The same signals arise when it comes to friendship as they do in an intimate relationship. Its safe to say that we are looking for many of the same things in a friendship that we are looking for in a relationship. Here are some relationship advice on things you should look for and take note of when in the hunt:

1)Someone you enjoy spending time with. (you actually like)

2)Someone you have something in common with

3)Someone who listens to you and someone you can stand to listening to

4)Someone who shows genuine interest in you and your happiness

5)Someone who can tolerate your weaknesses and your quirks

6)Someone who will stand up for you and has your back if need be

7)Someone you can count on and is dependable

8)Someone who tells the truth even if you don’t want to hear it (with compassion when needed)

9)Someone who doesn’t care if you’re overweight and can see you for who you are and not what you look like

10)Someone who can love you unconditionally

Finding these select few can take some weeding out. The only way to do it is to take a chance and get to know people. You never know when you will find Mr or Ms right and surprisingly enough they just might be right around the next corner. So get out and take a walk, smile and say Hello.
