6. Honest
Find someone who will tell you the tough stuff, even it’s hard to talk about. Honesty is key to any great friendship, and I believe having people in your life that won’t hide the truth from you is something worth more than gold.
7. Supportive
Whether it be directed toward your goals, dreams or relationship with God, having friends that are supportive toward your personal goals is always a must. There is no use in spending time with people who aren’t supportive of who you are or what you do.
8. Humble
Pride comes before the fall (Proverbs 16:18). While there is nothing wrong with having friends who are confident in who they are and what they do, I’d recommend staying away from opening up your life to people who are “all about them.” You’ll want to surround yourself with people who are both confident in who they are but also willing to humble themselves and praise the success of others.
I’m sure there are plenty of other great qualities to look for in friends, but I hope these help in your journey of finding great community.
