Build a friend

Just thinking about the Build a Bear and had a random thought. What is your idea of a perfect friend? If you could build one. Here is mine:

Another lady who is caring and has a heart. She is funny and smart. We can go shopping and to the movies. She doesn't make fun of me or dumps me and looks forward to my calls. We talk about our husbands and have lunch. She doesn't try to "one up me". She is humble and sweet. Ok anyone else wanna try.

" how lovely to have friends like that. I would like someone who wasn't unkind or judgemental about others or me. Someone who gave me a call once in a while. Someone who asked if I wanted to go out somewhere. Someone I could trust. Someone who would tell me why I don't have many friends so that I could do something about it. "

" I think my perfect friend would pretty much be a mixture of what you all said. Someone who really undestands me or at least tries to. That person who i dont have to pretend to be somebody else to get along with, someone who i dont have to try so hard to smile or be nice. And someone who i can talk to about everything :) "

" build a friend.. i thought from a kit?

someone that likes and respects you as you are and sees the good person inside, even if sometimes you yourself do not. someone that will stand up for you and one you can call on no matter what. so that and what others have said would be nice,

sometimes i think ill have to wait for the robot friend to get what im asking for. "

" i dont really like women. i mainly talk with women now cause if i lose what little friendships i have with women ill never be able to be around them. it does get easier with good experience. but as soon as it ends, im either left with bad experience, or nothing at all.

my friend would be a man. we wouldnt talk about emotions or any of that stuff. we would compete. ride bikes in the morning, walk at night. try to learn different languages and stuff. nothing that would belittle the other with a win or lose, but a motivational competition to keep us active and give us something to do together.

" My friend would laugh easily, love easily, and mean it when he or she promises they won't ever leave me behind. I don't think I have overly high expectations. But who really knows. "

" Someone to share dreams with, a shoulder to cry on, a smile to brighten the day. Someone who'd be there no matter what to support me. "

" I think I feel very fortunate in that if I had to build perfect friends, I would build them exactly like the ones I have now. However, I sometimes wish they would tell me when I'm being an asshole so I could improve on my flaws, but they are too polite to do so. One of my biggest fears is losing my friends, I know it will eventually happen as I am probably moving far away to finish my schooling, and this makes me very sad. "
