Someone who knows you well enough to know when something isn't "right" with you.

They accept you for who you are and has the wisdom to help you when you are in need.
A person who cares about the "who you are" and not what you can do for them.

In return you return the effort and grow together.

cartoonhero	Posted Jun 10th, 2009 at 9:10PM My definition of friend is somebody who you can trust with anything, and you know for sure they will not betray you. Rated: +2Vote for this!
NowSure	Posted Jun 10th, 2009 at 9:47PM To me a friend can be many things: someone you trust, someone that makes you laugh, someone that understands you, someone that is there for you when the going gets tough, someone that shares a history with you. Some people have some of these things; some have all of those things - but usually not all the time. Even so those are the best friends. Rated: +2Vote for this!

Gemini15	Posted Jun 10th, 2009 at 7:58PM Someone who you can trust, someone who you know will understand your problems. Someone who likes you just for you and not for someone they want you to be. A lot of times we're attracted to our opposites as well, so I'd say someone whose there for you when you need them. Rated: +1Vote for this!
