Dependability
值得信赖
"You need not wonder whether you should have an unreliable person as a friend. An unreliable person is nobody's friend."–Idries Shah
Have you ever had an experience in which you made sure you were there for a friend when they needed you, but when you needed them in turn, they weren't available?
If you have, you might remember how much that hurt, and how betrayed you may have felt at the time. It hurts like hell when you go out of your way to take care of someone, and then when you're vulnerableand in need, find out that they'd consider it inconvenient 1 to reciprocate 2.They might say that they're too busy, or they might even "accidentally"miss your calls/texts, but there's usually some excuse they come up with in order to get out of whatever it is you need from them.
A true friend is the person you can call in the middle of the night if you're sick or heartbroken, and they'll offer to come over to help you out however they can. They're the ones you can turn to in crisis, or will keep secrets absolutely safe if you're planning something spectacularly wonderful.There's never any doubt as to whether they'll be there for you when you need them to be; you can depend on them as well as they depend on you, in a perfect balance of giving and sharing.
