Do you show appreciation for friends?

I think that being a good friend is appreciating their friendship.

I do, but it’s definitely not a conversation I throw around at everyone.
You definitely have to be really special to me in order for me to look you in the eye and say it.
I personally know how it makes me feel when it’s said to me.
You can easily do things for people showing your appreciation, but it’s different when you tell them. Well, it is for me because I usually end up getting really emotional over it.
When I care about someone that much, I usually cry when I express my gratitude.

None to show appreciation to.

I do. I want them to know how much I care about them and their friendship.

@stranger_in_a_strange_land – Like you I dont really feel I have any…

Friends are around all the time, BBQ, outdoor activities and Indoor activities.

I offer food or something to drink.

Yes, only to my really good friends.

My best friend (before I met my girlfriend) was a guy named Josh, and he helped me through A LOT in my life… he was clean before I admitted that I was a drug addict, and he helped me and supported me as I got clean myself… he was there for me through the heartache of ex-girlfriends… he even moved in with me when I needed to get out of my mom’s house. Shit, he is the only one who didn’t tell me I should have an abortion when I got pregnant for my daughter, and if it weren’t for him I may have actually done it.

I tell him all the time how much I appreciate his friendship, and he does the same for me (I’ve bailed him out of jail, helped him with his relationship issues, etc).

@stemnyjones ; I hope he is still in your life and from all that stuff- Is #2 and gets invited for a meal often!

@phil196662 He moved out of town after he left his girlfriend, unfortunately, because I’m the only one of his friends who actually sided with him on the matter… but we still communicate online and through text messages :)

@stemnyjones ; that’s good, you guys shared so much together and that distance must be difficult- hope you have him for the holidays!

Heck yeah! Next to family, friends are all you got and in many cases better for the soul so you gotta ‘show the love’ for them! Invite them over for home baked meatloaf and to watch Seinfeld reruns every chance you have!

Yeeeaaaaaaa @Cruiser ! but ribs have a drip factor that looks great on meat loving woman’s chins! the cleaning is fun too…

Yes, I make extra efforts because I am honored to have them in my life.

To my good friends, yes. I’ll treat when we go out for drinks, and I buy them dinner, occasionally. Once in a blue moon they’ll get a card.

I do tell them ,then they try to kiss me.Choose your friends wisely.

Absolutely. I am the biggest “Thank you” “Great job” “Oh, that really does helps” and so on person in the world.

I do let them know I appreciate them, but don’t really notice much of a difference in the friendship if I don’t.

I send lots of “thinking of you” cards. Just a little reminder that I appreciate their friendship.
