traits of a good friend

One common trait is self - centeredness. Just like in my story where my friend spilled my secret to get attention.

Another common trait is being overly dramatic. They can turn an ordinary day - to - day situation into a soap - opera - like scenario. For example, if they are late for a meeting, they might come in with a big entrance, blaming all kinds of wild things like a flock of birds attacked their car or something equally far - fetched. Their stories are often full of these kinds of over - dramatic elements that make them stand out.

Another trait could be being inconsiderate. This can show up as not respecting your time. They might make you wait for hours without even a proper apology or explanation. And they also don't care about your feelings when they say something inappropriate or rude.

Often, in an unreliable friend story, there is a lack of communication. For example, if a friend doesn't tell you in advance that they can't keep a promise. Also, they may be easily distracted by other things. My friend who was supposed to help me with the job interview might have been distracted by something else and just forgot about me. And they usually don't take responsibility for their actions. When they let you down, they don't really own up to it.

A selfish friend in a short story often shows a lack of consideration for others. For instance, they might hog resources like food or space without thinking about others' needs. They are also likely to be self - centered in conversations, only talking about themselves and their interests.

Confidence is a common trait. In these stories, the dominant girlfriends are not afraid to make decisions and stick to them. For example, they might decide what to eat, where to go on vacations without hesitation.

Typically, in these stories, the fair - weather friend is very self - centered. They are mainly interested in the good times and the benefits they can get from the friendship during those times. So, when the situation changes and there are no more fun things or advantages, they leave. Also, they often lack empathy. They don't consider how their friend feels when they are in trouble and just bail out.

Many friend's mothers are great listeners. They are always there to listen to their children's stories, whether it's about their day at school or their dreams for the future. This makes the children feel valued. Moreover, a friend's mother may be very generous. She may be involved in community activities, donating time or resources to help those in need, which also sets a great example for her children.

One common trait is mood swings. Just like in my story about Lucy, they can be friendly and then suddenly cold. Another is unpredictability in behavior, like canceling plans at the last minute. Also, they might be overly sensitive, as Lily was in my story. They can easily take things the wrong way and react strongly.

One common trait is they often try to undermine their friend's achievements. For example, if the friend gets a promotion at work, the envious friend might say it was just because of luck, not hard work. Another trait is they may spread false rumors, like in the story where the envious friend told others untrue things about his friend's new relationship. Also, they can be possessive and not want their friend to have other friends or interests outside of their friendship.
