Hey Summer!
I am quite discriminating about who I spend time with. Loud, bossy braggards need not apply for the sidekick position. :)) Now one would think that EVERYBODY felt this way but it just ain't so.
Also, a good sense of morality which jibes with mine is also a prerequisite. Men who brag about cheating on their wives are at the bottom of the food chain here. They can be great fellows to be around and masters of conversation and good times but I will only regard them as an aquaintance. Here's the reasoning; if they would break this most solemn of vows and then "make light" of it I won't put myself in a position where trust may be an issue. As we all know, trust is vital to good friendships.
I consider myself to be pretty easy-going and try to give everyone the benefit of the doubt but as a 4 I'm also pretty quick at picking up on someone's intentions. Once I get bad "vibes" from someone I pretty much leave them alone from then on. This applies to people newly met and not misunderstandings between me and people I've known for awhile.
Amanda's term," discrimination", pretty much sums up the mode I try to operate in where selection of friends is concerned.
