Do you see difference between friendship and true friendship? Is there such thing as true friendship? What do you think about true friendship? I think true friends are people that you trust and can tell any problem you have or anything else that is bothering you. I have 1 friend IRL, but I can't tell him about my interests or problems or anything like that. I still want to call him friend because we've had some fun time together, but I don't know if I should call him true friend. Honestly I feel I have closer friends here in the forums than I have IRL. Maybe it is because I get anxious talking about my issues IRL and I don't talk about them much or at all. Here I can share my thoughts freely and that's why I think you know me and who I am better than anyone who knows me IRL. So I think friends are people you can hang out and have fun with, but when things get more serious only true friends are there for you.

Some qualities of friendship can be more important to certain people than others for whatever reason. Which is the most important to you? Feel free to rank all of them in order if you want, and/or explain your reasons. I've excluded magic since it's not really applicable in real life. For me, it goes: 1. Kindness - I just don't feel like two people can be friends without at least a little of this. 2. Honesty - This one is especially important to me. Unless I know I can believe someone's words, I can't truly think of them as my friend. 3. Loyalty 4. Laughter 5. Generosity I'm curious to see your answers.

Have you ever known someone you thought you were going to be good friends with for the rest of your life but immediately afterwords or overtime began to hate that person. Well this is the topic to talk about the times in your life where friendship hasn't been so magic.

Are there any ponies from FiM that you didn't think you'd like immediately, but warmed up to later? I remember when I first got into the show and couldn't believe that Rarity was the representative of generosity. My first impression of her wasn't great, but it didn't take long before she was one of my favorite characters! Are there any ponies you initially didn't like, but ended up loving as the show went on?

So this question is going to have a lot of "depends on" context? But some ideas are: Your friend started dating someone so they neglected you and now that they broke up months later they start talking to you again Your friend finds new friends to hangout with etc. they end up not being friends with them anymore They stopped talking to you for some reason (boredom, lack of interest, etc.) But something tragic happens to them and now they are at your feet I think yall get the gist. What would you all do? Do you start talking with your and pretend like nothing happened? Do you give it some time before bringing up their absence? Do you let them know right away? Do you ignore them? Thoughts that the same will happen again? Thoughts that you're being used? Etc Implication is that your friend stops talking to you for weeks or months or maybe even longer etc. Long enough time that makes you feel like "I thought we were friends"

It is self-explanatory. Would you like to have more friends? Explain why you do or why you don't. Maybe this thread can help some of us find additional friends.

I'm talking about celebrities because they are easily well-known and hard to reach. Sometimes I find a celebrity to be so a genuine and heartwarming person that I wish we could become friends, regardless of fame or anything else. Just valuing the person in itself. It happened with Will Smith (and his family), Robin Williams, Michael Jackson a few others actors and musicians mostly known in my country.

If there was one thing about you that makes you feel less connected from others, what is it? I'm not talking about how we can't meet each other in person or how far we are from each other, but rather about what is it about you that you don't seem to have in common with most members. I titled it this way because not having something in common with people can make us feel more disconnected and isolated from others. For me, while I do play video games at times (FIFA, GTA, and Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2004 currently for now until I see another game I'm interested in spending money and trying it), I don't seem to have the same approach to them as the majority of the forums do, which is enthusiasm and strong interest in it along with having a Steam account. In other words, I don't care too much about video games. And I don't know about you, but part of me thinks members and real life people won't find me interesting anymore. Or maybe I'm just thinking too hard. Just something I had to get off my chest now.

Now, here’s a fun challenge. I’ve seen somepony do one of these for Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash, so I figured, why not jump onto the Friendship Express bandwagon and do one for all six of them? What do you think is the best picture of our favourite six ponies? Be it a group hug, an iconic moment or just something that makes you smile. But don’t forget, all six of them have to be present. You can post more than one if you want. My favourite is a moment from the song ‘Best Friends Until The End Of Time’, just at the start of the second verse. There is a shot of all of them together, walking on a rainbow and all with smiles on their faces. This is the perfect image to sum up the camaraderie between them and what the show really is all about.

IF you were a teacher at school of friendship, which music do you think is the best to you play for the students? Personally, I would play "Remember Me" or "Proud Corazon". The Mane 6, students and everypony will deeply love them as they teach us great advice about friendship and family.

Hey everypony c: So a huge theme in MLP is, obviously, friendship! I was wondering what you all personally value in a friend and what you think is most important. I included the Elements of Harmony (minus magic) but I believe there are many more qualities too look for in a companion. Personally, I think the most important quality, although its hard to choose, is understanding. The world would be a much more free and open place with a little more understanding! Many a pony feel like they need to hide and bottle certain things up because they believe no one can make the effort the understand something they don't necessarily face with themselves. I've spoken to many troubled and distressed souls just about to explode from all the problems they've been holding back! It's sad. This thread is all about friendship so if anypony needs a new friend PM me ^-^ If y'all got any more friendship qualities you want me to add to the poll let me know

MLP has probably altered our lives for the better in significant ways, including mine. But, if I were to pick a specific instance, I'd say (quite ironically since the show seems to make friendships look like paradise) that I'm not afraid to be alone at times, like sitting at the lunch table or in class, albeit I still have friends with whom I hang out with time to time. But if you look at DJ Pon-3, she seems perfectly happy jamming to her beats and still looks hella cool even if she's not hanging out with someone. Anyways, what I'm trying to say is that it isn't necessarily "embarrassing" to be by yourself, and that it's important to have a passion for something, because after all, when you really get into something you love, people with similar interests would come along and naturally become your friend. Isn't there a saying how to have interesting friends you have to be interesting yourself first? Everyone has unique talents, you just need to work hard at it and not give up. I am grateful that I do have a friend on my side (which was not the case for the past couple years when school was completely hell for me) and several track teammates that I can talk to. I know not everyone can just "have a positive outlook", the same way someone with depression can't just "stop being depressed". But, I hope it did help some.

How far would you go for your friends? When it comes to your friends , how far would you go to help them? Would you bail them out if jail? Take a bullet? Bury a body? Even kill someone? Personally i would only go as far as killing someone if they really deserved it, or it had to be done. Oddly enough i think i'd be more willing to kill some one rather then bury/dispose of a body. What about you?

Everyone has a reason for befriending someone. It can be for the spur of the moment, the fact that two people have a lot in common, it could be to nurse an insecurity or to fit in with the kids at school. You get the point. On top of that, when it comes to choosing friends some people are critical while others are open to anyone. As for me, I've had bad experiences with people in the past, online and in reality. It's caused me to become an introvert and I always feel that people have their own agenda when they befriend me. Because of this, I take friendship very seriously (that's why, for example, my friends list on the MLP Forums is always being cleared of people every few days). To sum it all up, to me friendship is sacred, a bond that should not be taken lightly. Maybe I'm just overly sensitive but whatever. So what do you all expect out of a friendship and how important is a friendship to you?

MLPForums has one way of sharing points between its members, and it is through brohoofs. It is very easy to be generous, and give your friends points. There is a way to see how many you give per day Go to your profile (or someone else’s profile if you are interested ), and take note of their Join Date (in this case, it is 13th June 2019). Then click on the COMMUNITY REPUTATION link (which is the green area where the Brohoof counter is)... You will see a list of Reactions Given and Reactions Received, including many different reaction types. We are interested in how many Brohoofs has been given (in this case, it is 40389). Note: No other reactions give any points: Now go to this link to find out how many days you (or others) have been at the forum: https://www.timeanddate.com/date/duration.html In the Start Date, input the Join Date. For the End Date, click on the Today link: Now press the green button Calculate Duration: The answer is the number of days you (or others) have been at the forum. Use a Calculator (any calculator will do). Input the number of Brohoofs Given, and divide that by the number of days you (or others) have been at the forum: In this case, the number of brohoofs per day is 154 (in average). Having a number of 0. here means the brohoofs are less than 1. per day. Having the number 1. or higher means brohoofs are given every single day. Having a higher number means you (or others) are more generous, spending your time giving other attention. The question for this topic is: How many Brohoofs do you give per day (in average)? It is important to note, that the forum’s statistics don’t lie. It is possible for anyone to do these calculations (or redo them) in behalf of others.

I am not sure if this is the correct place to put this and I do apologize if its in the wrong spot so with that out of the way. Like the title says nothing is safe from Twilight's friendship she is always shoving friendship down everything's throat, but she never thinks that maybe they are not compatible as friends not every pony/ creature is going to like each other and get along when will the friendship madness end and who will she strike next? I understand its a kids show so before you all kill me where I stand uh hmmm O HEY LOOK PINKIE PIE AND FLUTTERSHY is over there yeah just look over there *flees while you all turn away to look. Well with that out of the way what do you guys think? does Twilight become a little overbearing with the friendship or is she just fine with the way she goes about pairing everybody up as friends?

It's been a long while since I've been on this site. Mostly been trying to avoid spoilers. (I'm only 2/3 way through "A Heart's Warming Tale"!) Anyways guys, as some of you are aware, I'm a Muslim. I'd like to know, what experience(s) have you all had, if any, with Muslims? (NOT over the internet, in real life) What impact did it leave you with about Muslims and the religion of Islam in general? Did the experience(s) make you think highly or less of Islam? How did you respond/react? How did the Muslim behave towards you? Please share! This is a serious topic I've wanted to have for a long time with the fandom.

You know that one guy who friended you for no reason? Since this site does not require you to approve friends, I and many others have experienced random friendship. If you respond to this you WILL become a victim of my friendship. MUHAHAHAHHAHAAA... (You have been warned...)

Hi everypony, recent debate question confused my mind and I have been thinking "Can a woman and a man be friends?". Dave Matthews answers this question on point: “A guy and a girl can be just friends, but at one point or another, they will fall for each other. Maybe temporarily, maybe at the wrong time, maybe too late, or maybe forever.” The short answer is yes, you can be just friends, but don't expect smooth sailing. We don't get to choose our family, but we do get to choose our friends. Often, our friends echo us in terms of personality, morals, values, socioeconomics, and goals. Our friends should complement us. No matter the gender, we find our friends attractive. At first, it isn't sexual attraction (well, most of the time). Rather, we become attracted to how they make us feel, how comfortable we are talking to them and how fun they are to go out with on a Saturday night. What we look for in our guy friends is very much the same in what we look for in a significant other: chemistry. Why would we want to hang out with a boring bro who plays video games all day? We want a guy friend who makes us laugh, goes out to dinner with us on a Friday night and watches the Rangers with us. Whether it's his dark brown eyes, height, charming personality or love for the Yankees, we are in some capacity attracted to him. If you deny this, ask yourself, “Why do I hang out with him?” It's inevitable: You both form feelings at one point of the relationship. Time wise, it can come in a variety of combinations. You may fall first; he may fall first; perhaps, you will fall for each other at the same time. Timing is key here. You can't control when you will fall for each other, but the way you handle falling for him will definitely shape your relationship. Do you ever notice how you feel when he brings a new girl into the picture? How about when he posts a picture with his new girlfriend on his arm at the same restaurant he took you for your 23rd birthday? Whether you like it or not, you feel threatened, even if you can honestly say you don't want to have sex with him. If this feeling of threat hasn't happened yet, trust me, it will. Often, without consciously recognizing it, we become attached. He is your best friend, after all, and all of a sudden, you're not a priority in his social life. You're his friend first, no girlfriend, and you don't always come first anymore. Once you see your best guy friend pulling away because there is someone else in the picture who can jeopardize your friendship, the platonic feelings get confused. It is often in situations like these where our true feelings are revealed. Hooking up with guy friends is not unheard of, and some of us are guiltier than others. Obviously, hooking up with a guy friend can and will, without a doubt, complicate your relationship if you want to continue being friends. It can put your relationship in jeopardy because you're no longer discussing sports; you're trying to discuss where you stand. Jealousy, love, and lust don't always last. Therefore, it is possible to be friends with the opposite sex, even after you hook up. However, it does require a lot of work. Honesty is important and being up front about each other's feelings is imperative. If you both enjoy the flirty banter, be upfront that it's just that and nothing more. Let him know you don't want anything serious. If you feel yourself falling for him, but feel a $200 romantic meal in Soho is not acceptable for just friends, just stick with the coffee shop on a Sunday afternoon. If he truly respects you, he will respect your feelings, no matter what. However, falling in love with your best guy friend can possibly “last forever.”You have already set up a solid foundation of trust and love, and you know each other on a fundamentally deep level. Relationships don't always start out as “love at first sight.” Sometimes, it is through deep, meaningful relationships we start to fall in love. As his friend, you see his flaws; you see who he is when he's sad and when he's happy. Unlike guys you've formally dated, falling in love with your best guy friend allows you to see his vulnerable side immediately. He's not putting on a show for you. Instead, he is showing you his true side while letting you open the door. If you do happen to fall in love with each other at the same time, go for it. There isn't a guy who knows you better than he does. Cross the bridge of dealing with feelings and emotions carefully because, at one point or another, you will have to sit down and have “the conversation.” Boys and girls can just hang out; they can sleep in the same bed without having sex, and they can be platonic, but not 100 percent of the time. Be aware that whenever you have a guy friend, there will be questions, doubts and moments of weakness.You can be just his friend, but remember, you will fall for him at some point. It's up to you whether or not you act on the feelings. Apart from it please know being gay is an exception. I, myself know that I am gay and I can easily be friends with girls while I find hard to talk to boys and be friends with them. So do not include those exceptions. Think of a straight woman and a straight man, what do you think? Can they be "just" friends?

Just kind of curious, because this forum is for MLP, which, you know, says friendship is MAGICAL. So, how often is it that you make friends? And how do you usually make them? And about how many friends do you have? Quite honestly, I really make no friends. I don't try to. I really don't have any common interests with anyone (#HipsterChick), so it's kind of hard to start conversations with people. Also, I have a lot of different standards and views on life that really just don't sit in the same pool as others'. I have only 2 legitimate friends, and the one is hardly a friend, he's more of an acquaintance.

One of my good friends Jeremy was on this hotline where you chat with random people and he met a girl named Sabrina there and they exchanged skypes and facebooks. Then he skyped with me and he added her to the call and we talked and now we are really good friends have been for a few years. This guy Kevin added me on Facebook randomly because of some issue his friend had with me and he looked at my profile and called me about it because I had my number public (not such a smart thing to do), and then after that he would call me a lot. We met in person, got pretty close and almost dated. I could keep going for a while, lol. I think its ironic how I've been taught not to talk to strangers online but some of the people that mean the most to me used to be just strangers online.
