What qualities do you look for in your friends, and what do you offer, as a friend?

I was thinking of posting a different question ...

“A fascinating, strong, intelligent woman”

Who is also Kind....

And by that I mean a woman who is kind to all, not only those she judges as “deserving”

I haven’t been fortunate enough to know many of these women in real life....

Having abusive parental units (two abusive maternal units).... may have set me up for some issues with having close female friends

And may have made me an easy target for some opportunistic bullies.... maybe

But I’m Wiser now. One of my requirements from any friend is Respect.

With love to all the wonderful women here who share from their hearts
