If you consider someone a friend...?!
Question: do you usually feel the need to tell them, or do you think your attitude is enough for them to feel it?
Answers: do you usually feel the need to tell them, or do you think your attitude is enough for them to feel it?
Yes. I feel the need to tell someone that they are my friend so that in that manner I lay open myself to their rebuke. Friendship is a mutual gathering of two or more in mutual trust, attraction, and understanding. A friendship can be a strong friendship like best friends or intimate friends or it can be a casual thing such as an acquaintanceship or a fellow ship, maybe even a kinship. But, I don't assume based on actions alone what if any friendship exists beween people because, I have been stabbed in the front and in the back by people I let get close enough to do so. Stabbing one is not the most friendly act one can do. I use the term metaphorically here. I have actually had people try to stab me and they most definitely were not my friends but I did give them the benefit of the doubt before the knives were drawn. So forgive me if i am a little bit shy about using the word friend lightly. I would do almost anything for a friend and it always stings me when I come to the point that the other person chooses to be friends no more, and yes, that happens a lot with me because I give this speech at the door. I want my friends to be my friends forever but if they choose to leave me I will not follow after them. I respect their wishes that much because I care for their feelings as I care for my own. They are still friends in my heart but not in my lifeand that hurts always because I know how good their friendships felt to me. So, no my attitude has never been enough for them to feel my friendship. I have to say it outloud or place it in writing because that is a lesson my life has taught me, namely be feel more strong that which you share with them, that you show to them and that say to their face. The more personal your delivery the more they feel how much you care. I could go on to a personal story here but I would rather not. Let us just say I lost a dear friend to my life recently and it is stinging as I type. At least I know they know everything I am writing you here. My friendships last forever in my heart.
sometimes actions express a lot more things than words do
If someone knows you well, they will know what your facial expressions mean, but if it's something important, it's best to vocalize it.
Usually they know, but it never hurts to tell them
I usually feel the need to tell them even if I think they already know
Telling them can be weird...your actions are better than words so I support the second, yo!
I think attitude is enough
You let them know, but I think that would be obvious anyways being if you are always together and hanging out or whatever.
: )
friend don't tell each oter they just know it.
there's nothing more creepy than someone asking to be your friend or stating that you are friends. if you have to talk about it, then it's not real.
I don't think We need close friends at all
Maybe SOME people were really juz
meant to be alone :X
attitude should be enuff if you are attituding the right attitude.
If you have to tell them and they cannot figure it out by your actions then there is something wrong with them.
I'm big on stating my feelings to people. I always believe in telling people how much i care. It's the only way to be true to them and yourself. Expression is key. By both action and statement. People need reassurance.
I think they can feel it but its also nice to hear sometimes!!!!
my attitude is enough. I'm good with words but I prefer show than tell...
Actions speak louder than words.. I don't have to tell them. My actions are enough.. =)
I dont usually feel like I should tell them. Its more the actions that SHOW them.
if you consider someone a friend, you obviously spend alot of time with them. you dont really need to tell them, cause obviously there your friend if you hang with them. UNLESS they are using you, you should know if they are though. aka if your rich, have good clothes, you have a friend they want to be friends with, your popular.. etc..
Friendship is a feeling but the impulses are made when agreed by each other Just like Gum ki ho dhup to saya bane woh dost, terihar ek burai pe danthe woh dost, and also nachebhi woh teri khushi mein ....
ppl are not dumb, dude.... lol.... they obviously know so when you're interacting on good terms with them....
Not necessary to tell even my behavior can show that.
sometimes i feel the need to tell them
it depends..........
Online, I feel the need to tell them.... Atleast once...
Offline, I think my attitude speaks for itself....
For me actions are enough:)
Nah they know!
...I'm a firm believer in following, or at the very least, questioning my inner voice, sixth sense...whatever you call it...and, if my inner voice tells me to voice my friendship feelings, even if the other person already "feels" it, then I do so...
Both.
My attitude definitely shows it and I know they feel it, but I also enjoy very much telling them how much I appreciate them and I am glad to have met them.
Now, I feel like emailing you!!! :))
My attitude is enough for them...to feel it!
I get drunk and tell them, I get a little sappy when drinking
If a long time friend, as a new partner. I will let them know, they are my friend, as long as they are a good friend, to my original friend.
