Are They Really My Friends?

ARE THEY REALLY MY FRIENDS?

A behavioral guide to understanding friendship

Not everyone who is close to you is truly your friend. Genuine friendship is revealed through honesty, respect, trust, empathy, and consistent support.

Are the people around you true friends—or are some relationships maintained by habit, obligation, convenience, fear, or unspoken expectations?

What You Will Discover

  • How to recognize genuine friendship and hidden warning signs.
  • Why trust breaks and how relationships lose their balance.
  • How to distinguish mutual support from dependence or obligation.
  • How to set healthy boundaries without unnecessary conflict.
  • How to build friendships based on honesty, empathy, and respect.

Written by Dr. Michael Cohen, this behavioral guide helps you examine your relationships honestly and recognize who truly deserves your trust, time, and emotional investment.
