I Need a Real Friend

Don’t need friends just to bring me smile?
Friends who accept me as I am
Someone who loves me for who I am
Someone who wants to please me at all times
Friends who stand by me no matter what
I need a friend to make me a better person
Friends that correct me when I am wrong
Advising me when I am confused
Someone who is not after my prosperities
Values, knowledge, and beauty
Someone who goes against me when I am wrong
Who is not a yes, no matter what I do to hurt others’ feeling
I need a friend to help me grow
Socially, intellectually, and financially
Someone I can trust with my 2 kids and wife
Someone I can count on when I am totally down
Someone who is not after my wealth
Don’t need a always yes friend when I am wrong
I really need a great friend

This sounds like the job of a good couple of parents Ginal. These are the things they normally do - or grandparents.
