Hello everybody! It's long time since I haven't posted anything. The
title for my writting would be "Have you ever dreamed about having a
best friend?"

Have you ever dreamed about having a best friend? Well, if your answer
is negative, maybe your are a lucky person and you have already found
someone who is a shoulder to cry on, trustworthy and willing to help
you whenever you are in trouble. Probably I would use all these
adjectives to describe a close friend.

Since I was at school I have had a lot of acquaintances but I have
never had a close friend. My sister has always been my close friend.
However, I used to get along with a girl. Her name was Belen. We were
the same age and at the same class. I liked her because she was a down-
to-earth person and I fit in her group also. We shared some interests
and this made me feel great. After school, we carried on our studies
and started to have more responsabilites so we couldn't see each other
very often. Nowadays, we sent us messages and chat every now and
again. Our relationship has changed a lot during all these years,
there is no doubt about it but, we have never had big arguments and we
have learnt to settle our differences.

In a nutshell, we have really get on like a house on fire.

Nice comments, Salva! Thanks so much!

Now, can you comment on those mistakes? The first sentence is not very well stated but i dont seem to find the Wrong Word that should be the substitute... Can you suggest Esmeralda an alternative sentence?

Thanks again!

Angelo

This is my doubt in the following sentence:
> > Have you ever dreamed about having a best friend?

I guess we can say: having the best friend or having a better friend
instead of having a best friend.
Who knows!

Maybe I should have chosen a different title  and I should have changed the beginning.
 
My Ideal friend 
 
  "What's makes an ideal friend?" is a very personal question but in my opinion I would say that an ideal friend is someone trustworthy and dependable. To put it in a different way someone who is not two-faced. However,  a little bit of criticism can be positive provided that it is not intending to put you down.
 
When I was at school I had a lot of acquaintances but none of them were really my friends. My sister has always been my close friend . According to her, she is twice as better as me making friends. In fact, I only got along with  the girl who was sitting next to me in class.I shared some interest with her. Nowadays we have been knowing each other for ages. While it is true to say that we are still good friends, in fact, our relationship has changed a lot during the years. If we could work together we would be in contact more often. We live in different places so we use the text messaging to keep in touch.
 
From my viewpoint, if my friend and I  hadn´t learned how to settle our arguments, our relationship would have ended ages ago. Therefore, you can always think about what makes an ideal friend but after you find him/ her you should always try to keep her/him.
