A Good Friend is ..

Someone who listens and shares your common personalities, your views, your friendship. We are talking about feelings you have felt or ways you have acted in a certain situation...

...an excitement to the joy of all you can eat buffet, enjoying the food slowly, talking of other people, and making sure you are eating enough for what it is worth. Might as well have your fill since it will be a long time until you return to this favorite place of yours. You will probably be so full you can hardly get up, or so sick from over indulgence that you would need to make a dash to the bathroom, hoping not to make a scene and causing everyone else to lose his or her appetite. Perhaps when you are all done throwing up, your stomach is empty again, giving you another chance, an extended eating time to fully expand your belly.

Because friendship is important to you, you witness your friend go through hell and back, just so you can remind her what could happen when one over eats. Then you will both laugh about it, all the while you are munching at your favorite restaurant but at another table.

But if you are not a good friend, well you may not have the opportunity to share such a story or care enough to inquire about her.
