Basically, a good friend is someone who will be there for you when it looks like everyone else has totally bailed. It's way more than just sharing common interests, but being able to trust them with pretty much everything and anything. I'm happy to say that I have quite a few friends like this, and I can only hope that they see me in the same light.
This.

And good friends are the only real friends you have, everyone else is just an acquaintance.
