How to be a Good Friend: You have to be there for me, you have to stand up for me, you have to help me, with my problems, and most importantly be a good friend. I already have a best friend though. I've known her since I was in preschool. We grew up with each other... We know each other... And I am sure glad we are friends with each other. To my best friend! Thank you for being there for me and helping me, and being a good friend. You know who you are so be proud of it.
