A Real Friend & A Simple Friend

A simple friend, when visiting, acts like a guest.
A real friend opens your refrigerator and helps himself
and doesn't feel even the least bit weird shutting your
'cola/Pepsi drawer' with her foot!


A simple friend,  has never seen you cry.A real frien shoulder is soggy from your tears..

A simple friend,  doesn't know your parents' first
names.A real frien has their phone numbers
in his address book.

A simple friend, brings a box of chocolate to your
party.A real frien comes early to help you cook and
stays late to help you clean.

A simple friend,  hates it when you call after
they've gone to bed.A real frien asks you why you took so long to
call.


A simple friend, seeks to talk with you about your
problems.A real frien seeks to help you with your problems.


A simple friend,  wonders about your romantic
history.A real frien could blackmail you with it!


A simple friend,  thinks the friendship is over when
you have an argument.A real friencalls you after you had a fight.


A simple friend,  expects you to always be there for
them.A real frien expects to always be there for you!


A simple friend, reads these words and deletes them.
A real frien passes them on and sends them to someone who is a real friend too
