It's good to have a few people to rely on and I enjoy being one of those my friends (and others) feel is dependable and the sort of person they feel comfortable coming to for a friendly, objective and honest ear to listen to them when they need. With technology one doesn't need to be in the same place either.

I enjoy being one of those friends too, and I'm lucky enough to have a few friends who are just as dependable. We can be friendly, objective, and honest with each other. Technology really helps when we’re not in the same place; it’s hard for me to imagine what my situation would be if this were 30 years ago when it wasn’t as easy to keep in touch with friends. I don’t have many friends where I currently live since I moved away from where I went high and college.
Having people we can rely on makes a massive difference to a person I think. I don't trust many people, they have to earn it, but those I do are dependable and I feel comfortable opening up just a little.
