Personally, the best friend to me is someone who is prepared to listen to what you have to say, and they won't judge you on what you do say - unless it's damnright wrong of course. I think I can open up to all of my friends, or most of them.
Having the same interests as me isn't important for a good friendship. I have friends from many different backgrounds, and we are just friends because we enjoy eachothers company. Although, back in the day, I used to look up to my friend Ella - she was pretty much everything I wanted to be. I've done a lot of growing up since then, and although I've still taken one or two leaves from her book, I believe that sometimes a good friend shows you who you are. If that makes any sense lol... ^^;;
Another thing I love about all my friend is that no matter what mood I am in, they'll always come up with something to make me smile - it could be a joke, or a cuddle, or a gesture... it'll always cheer me up, and once or twice I've cheered up faster talking to a friend than my family.
