A Best Friend

A best friend is someone who will ALWAYS be there for you.
A best friend is someone who constantly believes in you, even if they disagree with your opinions or beliefs.
A best friend is someone who will always watch your back.

A best friend is someone who you can tell all your secrets to, without them being mocked or spread,
A best friend is someone who will never, ever lie to you,
A best friend is someone who will stand up for you when you get put down.

A best friend is someone who's clothes you can ALWAYS borrow,
A best friend is someone who can accept you for who you are,
A best friend is someone is not cruel and will not stab you in the back.

So where's my 'best friend' then?
