1. The first quality for true friendship is
unselfishness.It tell us that a man who is

incapable of true friendship because they
take up an interest with enthusiasm , but
they are soon tired of it, and they feel the
attraction of some new objects.
3. The third quality for true friendship is
loyalty. It tells us that the two friends must
be loyal to each other, and they must know
each other so well that there can be no
suspicions between them.
4. There must be a mutual trust between
friends because if not, people cannot feel
safe when telling the other his or her
secrets.
