some actually yes do exist. some priests and FOCs are sometimes the best friends to have. above all this however, God should be the friend that is closest to you.
I don't think there is anybody in the whole history from the creation of Man till now, that have all the characteristics that a true friend has, except God, he is the only one that is truly the BEST, LOYAL, HEART-WARMING, ALWAYS BY YOUR SIDE, COMFORTING, PEACEFUL, LOVEABLE (for sure), CARING, WILL NEVER GET MAD, NEVER GET JEALOUS, MIRACULOUS, FULL OF ZEAL, WILL NEVER THINK WRONG, INTELLEGENT (VERY), ALWAYS IN A HAPPY AND GIVING MOOD...this could go on for hours, I just gave you 1/4 of what I have in mind about God, actually that's doesn't even come close to an 1/8 or something! He is the only true, best, and will always be your friend no matter what, as everyone said, no one is perfect, besides God, so therefore no one could be your true friend, but can have some of the characteristics not all!
Amen to what Coptic Servent brilliantly said and everyone who choose God as the true friend. There is a verse in the Book of Parables, which prophesies about Our Christ, “ 24: There are friends who pretend to be friends, but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother.” All the saints are good friends and also as Christ4Life said our spiritual advisors and our fathers of confessions.
i think there might be a true friend but not a perfect friend. and i don't even know what to think cause a week ago me and me so called "true friend" got in an argument and didn't talk since. i don't know what to do. to call her....or just stop and move on. we had great times together and it is a shame that all those great memories will just go away. i don't know what to do though???? :o ??? :(
