1.Dependability – Dependability is underrated. If you are a dependable friend with personal boundaries, you are priceless. Without personal boundaries, many dependable friends get taken advantage of.

    可靠。如果你是一個可靠的有自己原則的朋友，那么你是無價的。沒有原則就會吃虧。

    2.Respect – Respect is earned, not aged into. If you respect your friends and what they stand for and it is mutual, your bonds will be stronger and more long lasting than others.

    尊敬。尊敬是相互的，不是年齡賦予的。

    3.Positive Feedback – A realistic positive outlook and encouragement are two of the most powerful things you can give a friend in crisis.

    正面反省。朋友情緒低落時，贊揚他們的外貌和性格是好的。

    4.Alternate Perspective – Looking at a situation from a different perspective is crucial to making good decisions. Helping a friend to do this is admirable.

    換位思考。換個角度看事，有益于做出理智的決定。

    5.Honesty – Honesty is not synonymous with agreement. Tough love is sometimes necessary in friendships and is appreciated by true friends.

    誠實。誠實不代表妥協。真正的友誼需要這樣的誠實。
