How would you explain this!

Question

"A friend in Need is an 'Enemy' Indeed"!

Well...i completely agree with this statement......I Would tell my opinion(if you want to have a look at it) at last:)

Answer 1

yes i agree....if you are a friend in need then that means you have NO friends....and WHY? because you have made enemies of all the rest

Answer 2

A real friend will be with you forever even if you call enemy/friend.

He is there to fight for the real benefit of you.

Answer 3

Your quote is wrong...A friend in need is a friend indeed...is the way it really goes. So you may want to rethink your opinion.

Answer 4

You must help the friend not in the usual way, but you must teach him to fish not just help him by giving him a fish... get it?

Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day (plus he may keep coming back for more food)

Teach a man to fish and he can eat for a lifetime (but he may do something unpleasant, maybe eat all the fish in the lake.)

Basically you need to open yourself before you just turn someone away but you also need to understand how to help them and what will help them, also you need to see sometimes, "helping them" isn't best for them or others.

Answer 5

sure;

makes sence

Answer 6

because they will always keep coming back for more and more just like a dog or something and eventually they will become your enemy.

Answer 7

when someones in need theyll do watever it takes to get that something they want even do wrong against those there close to. for example borrowing money...you try helping a friend out then when its time to pay they give excuse after excuse...and say ur harrassing them..

Answer 8

why would you call your friend who needs your help an enemy?

........doesn't even make sense

Answer 9

The only explanation possible seems to be that__

Either your definition of "friend" is skewed;  Or "need" is viewed as personal attack on you!!!

Answer 10

nice point of view, when it comes to wrong deeds...... this surely is correct, like for example, a friend is need is NOT a friend indeed wen sm1 wants to murder sm1..... lol!! a True friend, will do everything to bring back oneself on the right track, even if it goes against him, coz that is the actual 'need' of the person who is not on the right path of life.....

if it's sm other point of view, i welcome it.. :))

cool question, :))

Answer 11

This generally speaks of friends whom are

so needy that they tend to use you up in

such a way that it literally drains the life out of you.

These types of friends only think of themselves and disregard

any inconveniences their impositions my bestow upon you.

They will burden you down until you've been consumed

like the vultures devour the dead.

They are the nemeses to your very livelihood. Not knowing when to cut them loose is like committing emotional, mental and

spiritual suicide. And each time you see them, they still need something else. In fact, they only call you whenever they need something. So, don't be fooled..they only have their own best interests in mind; they only love themselves.

If you try to pull the same stunts with them, they will quickly let you know that they do not have time to deal with any of your dramas, problems and needs. They might loan you a dollar, but they probably owe you hundreds of dollars anyhow and merely look upon that dollar as a solid investment into their future when they need you to be their ATM again..and trust me, it won't be long.

So, a friend in need is an enemy indeed.

Desperate people do desperate things,

Peace/Joy

Answer 13
