How to know if someone is a true friend

Its hard sometimes to know if someone is a true friend. We find ourselves asking "does she really care about me" or "is he loyal?"
With these secrets tactics you can give simple but effective test to see if anyone is loyal and a true friend.

Here are six tactics that can be easily used to your benefit.

Again these tactics can be used in everyday life so use them for to better those around you.

Tactic 1 INTEREST
Tell them about something significant that is going on in your life and see if they follow up to find out what happen. True friends will first off remember and want to know or show interest in their friends life and affairs if their told about them.

Tactic 2 LOYALTY
This tactic is very sneaky but it will get right down to the point. First get permission from a knowing friend about what your about to do. Let them know your testing a friend for LOYALTY.
Tell a secret about a mutual friend and see if it gets back to him/her. If it does you will know your friend is a gossiper and not to tell them your or others most hidden secret. They can not be trusted.

Tactic 3 PRIDE
Anyone can tell you to cheer up, It make us fell better to know we are trying to make you happier. See, your true friends are proud of your accomplishments, not jealous of your success. See if a friend comes to you when you recieve good news and congratulates you. Not just their when you recieve bad news to try and comfort you when you are down for his on selfish needs to feel better. There are lots of people who are willing to cheer us up when things aren't going our way. But it's more diffcult to find someone who will congratulate us when things are going well.

Tactic 4 HONESTLY
A true friend is someone who tells you the things that you dont want to hear. He/she is willing to have you be upset with her ifit will help you. Does he/she tell you things that are for your own benefit even though he/she knows that it might make you upset with her?

Tactic 5 RESPECT
Tell her/him that you have something exciting to tell them that is going on in you rlife, but you have to wait to tell them because you can not talk aboput it right now. Then see if he/she presses on endlessly to get you to tell them.There is a difference in CURIOUSITY and CONCERN. If she/he must know then there more interested in the gossip than they are you. A good friend will respect your wishes and give you space to let you tell them when the right time comes. Later on he/she might ask you about it but thats ok, lons as he/she doesnt constantly hound you then he/she has a complete lack of respect!

Tactic 6 SACRIFICE
Is he/she willing to give up something if it ,makes you happy? Will he/she sacrifice her/his own pleasure for your happiness.
Example: Who deicides what to do this weekend? Does you input matter? Do they compromise with your wishes on the fun for tonight or do they do what they want to do and forget about what you would like to do?
Whats worst is would he/she make a plan with you involved in the escape or are they only looking out for their best interest on the escape?
