“The only way to have a friend is to be one.”
This means that if you are unlikable and are incapable of being a friend to someone then you won’t have friends. I agree with this quote fully. People think that they can act anyway that they want and there will always be someone who will like them. You have to have the quality of a friend to have them. Being a friend goes both ways and is a mutual relationship. The school bully that doesn’t possess the quality of friendship doesn’t have friends and ultimately when they are no longer a bully and treat people with kindness they will have friends.
