Never trust a friend..Can you trust a friend?
HI everyboody, I am new here and I would like to know: do you have a friend you can really trust? Do you think he/she would not go behind your back? Cheat on you? Not be by your side?

Welcome to SpanishDict.
I am also new here, I found SD about 5 weeks ago.
One of the things I see most often are the other members constantly remind us new members that this is not a texting site and request that we use proper English because many of the Spanish participants are trying to learn English from us. I include you when I say us because you do have a great handle on English even if you are not paying attention to the grammar rules.
I also learned that many people assume, when a question comes in English, that English is your native language and answers may not always make sense.
Sometimes, when a question is not understood, the viewer will click on the member and read the profile. It would be to your benefit to edit your profile to reflect your native language and maybe to 'clean up' some of the 'texting' shorthand.
I see that you are asking and answering questions, doing the lessons, and already creating flashcard sets! When you take over here at SpanishDict, please remember I was only trying to be helpful.

Hi, I'm very new here I just signed up today, although I've been using the translation tools for a pretty long time. It really is hard to find friends that you know you can trust, but once you do you'll never forget them. I have one friend who I can trust no matter what, and I don't know what I'd do without her.
Well this has nothing to do with the trust issue but rather the photo itself. Never judge appearances; this could very well be a grieving father(middle),daughter and son reflecting on a moment.
Cute picture. Cute caption. But I thought that was acceptable behavior in some cultures.
So what is the Spanish?
"Nunca jamás confie en un amigo"?
Hi and welcome to the forum,
Is this the picture you were trying to post?

In the US I would agree with your comment about the photo. However, from my experience with other cultures I can not agree.
Pertaining directly to the photo, I was walking with some friends in Costa Rica and one of them, una chica bonita", takes my hand. Being married and feeling a little uncomfortable, I asked her about it and she said es normal que los amigos. Then her boy friend joins the group and there we are walking; his arm around her and her hand in mine. No problems, because of the culture.
And no my wife was not there if she was I would have had una mujer guapa" holding my hand. It took some time for my wife and me to acclimate to the closeness of the culture in CR.
Pertaining to your question about friends you can trust. Yes I have a few friends I trust completely and they earn that trust. My wife is at the top of that list. All of the friends I have I trust, some more than others; I only offer my friendship freely, my trust must be earned. I also have no friendship to offer anyone that has earned my distrust. Life is too short to waste my time with them.
Do not ask for anything you are not willing to give.
