My second husband believed I had such a fickle attitude to friendship that each Friday he would update the list of my 'Top Ten' friends in the manner of a Top Of The Pops chart countdown.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
My dad said to me growing up: 'When all is said and done, if you can count all your true friends on one hand, you're a lucky man.'
What I've realized over the years is that I have some pretty good friends.
Luckily I've had a lot of great friends that I've had for a long time.
I had my group of friends, you know, like my real group of friends, and then I had, like, party friends.
Most of the friends you trust are those you've known for 10 years.
The one thing I've learned about friends is that the good ones are rare.
Every year, I take 10 of my best friends from high school on a trip. That's kind of my way for saying thanks to them for being so loyal, for keeping me honest, and for just being great friends throughout this craziness.
The value of friends has always been a natural thing. I prefer too many to too few.
I still have the same friends I've had for the last 15 or 20 years.
I've had the same friends for ten, fifteen years.
