1. Avoid "I" Specialists

So many times, people who look like ideal friendship material, do not bother to know what is happening at your side of the picture. They dominate the conversation and like the sound of their voices. They would not let you voice your opinions as well. If this friend does not seem to listen to you much or even understand you, it is better to drop this person like a hot cake.

2. Don't Rush Blindly Into The Friendship

Before you take a few strides with a person, try to know everything about him and do not fall blindly into the relationship blindly trusting him. If you don't know the pluses and minuses of this person beforehand, you may regret your decision when you find out that this friend is not worth the pain, after all.

3. Abandon Those Before You Are Abandoned

There are a few people who are your best friends till you fall into trouble. There are also few of them whom you might have ignored but they rush in when you are facing bad times. Always befriend a person who will never abandon whatever condition you are in. It is not the words, but it is the actions that tell a good man from a bad man. Do not be fooled by sugar coated words of a friend who is out to leave you once trouble comes. Some of them can be fair weather friends.

4. Test Them And See If They Pass Or Fail

d Be Ready To FaceTest them and study them before you get any close to them. If you do it afterwards, it may spell the death of this friendship. Be ready with facts and figures about them, so that you are not fooled later. If you come to know about his minus points later, it will be too late to correct the situation and your mistake because things will turn soar quickly between the two of you. He may then bare his fangs and really trouble you.
