The Friend Test

OK, life is hard, and one of the things that makes it the hardest is knowing who your true friends are.  After watching “Go On” on nbc.com today, I’ve come up with The Friend Test and wanted to see what you all think.

Ok so, a true friend will tell you when there is something you need to know in order to save you from embarrassment or harm, right?  They wouldn’t let you go around looking like a fool or acting like one.  For example, if you have something stuck in your teeth, a real friend will tell you that you do, so that you can get it out and not look like a dork.

So here it is, The Friend Test.  I want you all to try it out and tell me if it works for you.  Get together with one of your friends, have something in your teeth, and make it obvious, like a piece of spinach or some oreo cookie crumbs.  See if they tell you about it so you can go and get it out.  If they do, they are a real friend, and you should hold on to them.  If they don’t…. well, are they a friend at all?  Who wouldn’t tell you that you have something stuck in your teeth?  Maybe someone who pretends to be your friend to take advantage of you in some way, maybe you drive them places, or pay for things for them, or introduce them to people who they need to meet, the possibilities are endless.  Anyways, if they don’t stick up for you I would reconsider how you view them in your life.  Life’s too short to be around false friends, don’t you think?  Comment below.
