My Different Circles
Date: July 30, 2021 Author: Sequoia Many people always ask on how to determine a real friend. Of course, in today’s era, identifying who are your true companions is really important. Remember that your friends will definitely give a big impact and influence to your life. We are always advised to choose the companions wisely because they will also dictate our future. If you surround yourself with toxic people, you will become toxic too. However, if you decided to be surrounded by wise and positive people, your life will turn positive as well. Believe it or not, your friends play a very crucial role in our whole existence here in the earth. Some says that they can survive without friends. Well, I won’t argue with you because a person can really live alone, but won’t definitely enjoy his life. We are all aware with the phrase that “no man is an island” right? We need each other to survive and live the life with joy and excitement. Life is more fun if you have people that support, love, care and will help you in times of needs. Now, let us go back with the most asked question about friendship. How can we spot a real friend? Well, that’s a very easy question. If you want to find your real friends, just observe the people that will laugh at you when you stumble (literally) but will eventually give you a hand afterwards. Lol. Well, at some point I could say that it could be a great basis because it has been proven and tested by me. Lmao. Just kidding. But seriously, spotting real friend is not that hard. Real friends are the people who never get scared in correcting you. They are the ones who will go and never leave you during your darkest moments. True friends might not always be there for you physically, but your hearts are close to each other. Also, distance and little to no communication for a long time will never put a gap with what you guys have. You know that he is a true friend by just looking at each other’s eyes. Growing up, I could somehow say that I have gone through a lot and meet different people as well. I’ve encountered a lot of fake friends. However, I never regret meeting them. Fake friends taught me a lot of things such as differentiating a real one from a synthetic one. To be honest, I really have a lot of circle of friends, and each circle is different from one another. **Christian Friends** Well, it is such a great thing to have friends who love the Lord. They are the ones who always reminds me about God’s unending love and grace. They are the people who introduced the Lord to me and I am really grateful to have them. Usually, they are the people that I usually go to whenever I am in trouble or I need very serious advices. I can really count on them. Anyways, @Athaliah is one of my bestfriends who belong in this circle. **Happy Go lucky Friends** These are the people who I usually go with, whenever I want to have unending fun. They are the always on the go people even if they have no money. The not kill joy ones. Lol. **Chill Friends** From the word itself, they are the people who are “Netflix in chill.” Whenever I am with them, I can’t feel any pressure and will just enjoy the moment. **Studious Friends** There are times that I really need to be serious in my life and make sure that I won’t fail. These are the people whom I can count to, when it comes to academic issues. If you are aiming for passing and good friends, you have to stick with them. ________________________ Just to clear things out, most of my friends are all around. They can be studious, happy go lucky, chill and Christian at the same time (Just like Athaliah). What I did is just labelled the friends I think I have and their dominant attitudes. Well, regardless of their label, they are all trustworthy and I know that I can always count on them. ________________________ **Of course, I will never forget the people I met in this platform.** **To my beb, be , mars, mare, sissy , besh , Daffy’s friend, beauty, champ, and ates (you guys know who you are) , thank you. You have no idea how big the impact you brought to my life. I always pray for you all and always remember that I thank the Lord for your life.** ________________________ *Friends are my greatest gift from heaven and I really appreciate them a lot. In this article, I just want to express how grateful I am to have them in my life. Happy International Friendship Day!* **P.S**. Thank you @whitney123 for this dare. You saved me today. God bless you!

Ang sarap sa feeling kapag marami kang friends no? Kahit iba-iba man ang label nila, lahat sila kaibigan mo. Personally, I believe na kapag nakikipagkaibigan ka, nagshishare ka na din ng love sa kapwa mo. Namiss ko tuloy mga kaibigan ko noon na hindi ko na nakikita ngayon.😁
Trrruuue. Iba din talaga yung good vibes na binibigay ng friends natin sa atin dba mars?
True mars.😊
Love how you differentiated your different friends, with these we have different approaches to how we relate with them. Its often hard to get a best friend nowadays
Truuee. But I am glad that I have found a bestfriends whom I could really rely on.
I used to feel sad that I only have one circle of "true" friends. Most of the people I meet ended up being included in my acquiantance list. It never crossed my mond that they were actually considering me as a friend, it is just that they think I am busy so they do not approach as much as they would love too. I think that the pandemic really robbed me of the opportunity to expand my network. But being here in this platform and also at noise.cash, I found virtual friends who still made me feel appreciated and loved. So even if I lost opportunities, I still gained something equally valuable.
Trrruuuee, I also gained a lot of friends here in nc and rc and I am glad to be part of this family. This opens a lot of opportunitues and expands my network as well 🤗
That's sweet. I only have like 4-5 personal friends. 3 of them are here. The rest are virtual friends and happy to met them here. Like you!
Yeeey 🤗🤗 Happy to meet you din poo ate
hugsss
There are two verses me and my friends throw around, well, we always remind each other with when we were growing up : *Proverbs 17:17 A friend loves at all times* and *Proverbs 27:6 (first part) wounds from a friend can be trusted* and they are two markers of real friends I look out for even up to now. God bless Sequioa!!! we do have great pals here..
I am familiar with those verses and yes I agree with you ate Pichi28
Pang 2nd ko na nabasa to bout friendship. Challenge dn pla to 😅
Opoo ahhaha kahapum kasi International Friendship Day.
ehhhhhhh love you bebe!!!
Love you too beeeb
Sameeee like, tanan friends nako all around. But mga kalog nga lang HAHAHAH. Pero I hate this kind of friend nga dili seryuso sa acads and it literally annoys me. Kanang dili ganahan mag study Kay mag wait ras answer sa "friend" 😌
Naa koy classmate ingun ana mars pero dili me close hahaahha.
If you want to find your real friends, just observe the people that will laugh at you when you stumble (literally) but will eventually give you a hand afterwards. > HAHAHAHA 😂 napatawa ako dito pero seryoso ang hirap nga talaga tignan kung sino ba talaga sakanila ang totoo o hindi kaya nga mas pinili ko nalang talaga dito sa online magkaroon ng friends kasi dito safe ako.
Ganyan kasi mga friends ko mga hiyowp hahahahaha . truuuee minsan mas maasahan pa yung virtual friends eh
I am glad to meet two wonderful people. We have been friends for 14 years and we will celebrate it on August 24. True friends are who can stay with you at your worst, even if you push tme away, they will stay.
Truuueee. Yung hindi ka iiwam kahit anong mangayri.
How sweet ☺️ my friend circle is very small but they are trust worthy. 😍
Awesome 🤗
I dont know if this question is related pa din sa article mo, I just want to ask kung may karapatan ba akong magtampo if nalimutan ng mga kaibigan ko yung birthday ko. Not just normal friends ha. Personal friends na nakasama ko for how many years at tinuring kong sobrang special sakin. Valid ba yung nararamdaman kong tampo? What should I do then? PS: Isang personal friend ko lang bumati sakin.
This is just my opinion and based on experienced. For me, you have the right, Cliff. Kung matalik na kaibigan ang turingan niyo. Tapos kung ikaw never nakalimot ng birthdays nila. Dapat kung importante ka sa kanila hindi nila malilimutan birthdays mo. Valid yan. Ask them anong meron sa July 27. Pag hindi pa rin nila naalala, sabihin mo na birthday mo. Hear them out. What are they reason(s)? And doon ka magbase sa sagot nila. If sabihin nila na "Sorry, nakalimutan". Sorry to say this, hindi ka ganon kahalaga sa kanila. Hindi gaya ng pagpapahalaga mo sa kanila. Ps. Ang ginawa ko non. Hindi ko na sila kinausap, hinintay ko kung maaalala ba, hindi. Masakit. Siyempre friends mo yun e. Ang mas masakit hindi na din ako kinamusta. Nakakatawa lang kasi before that nag message pa ako sa isa, ni seen sa chat ko hindi ginawa. Hays. Kaya ayaw ko nalang maattached talaga sa tao. I have a great circle of friends naman ngayon pero hindi ko nalang iniintidi kung maalala pa nila o hindi. Salamat kung oo, okay lang kung hindi. Pps. Sorry to reply sa comment mo dito. Huhu. Nakita ko lang kasi. Hihi.
@Kli4d my advice would be like this. Tama si mars, hear them out first. Ask them kung ano yung dahilan nila bat nila nakalimutan. Pero kasi, I believe that kung totoo kang kaibigan, di mo malilimutan yung mga bagay na importante sa taong malapit sayo lalo na yung birthday. Naka experience pa naman ako ng ganyan and sobrang skit talaga. You have the right to feel those emotions. And remember na if hindi valid reason nila, well meaning to say wala ka talaga halaga sa kanila and pag ganyan, distance yourself nalang. You deserve people na pinapahalagahn ka ng totoo :)
Sa truuuueeee. Doon tayo sa pinahahalagahan tayo. Hindi yung puro tayo nalang nagpapahalaga.
Truuuee bb.
There are many types of friends out there and I know that there are many. out there who can be your best friends but the thing is your relationship can be stronger and thicker than friendship..As time passes by ..your bond beccomes stronger and eventually trusting each other back just like siblings..Goodmorning 😊

You know your true friends when you are going through some challenges and they are there to stand by you and keep giving you hope to live. I have some few friends too who are always there, we study together, we play and gist, we go out for fun and we also correct ourselves too.
Isn't it amazing to have those kinds of friends? Thanks for dropping by Princess 🤗
Wow, so great to hear that you are so into your friends. I like every category that you have in there but I like Christian friends the most because they remind you of lessons you should he reminded of.
