Hi.
Welcome back to Eat yout Crust podcast.
I'm Jisoo.
I'm Krystal.
And I'm Helen.
All right, so we have a familiar voice on today.
You might recognize Helen, from episode 185, Girl Talk, icks and Sticky Situations, where we put Helen in various hypothetical situations and pretty much made her decide whether to stay with someone or not.
Deal breakers, red flags, and whatnot.
So that was a really funny episode.
But today we have a little bit of a different topic for you, Helen.
And we wanted to talk about friendship, specifically the various values that we each kind of carry and hold when we think about friendship.
Let's kick this off by starting with a very simple but maybe kind of hard to answer questions.
What does being a good friend mean to you?
So, a good friend, I think that is a very difficult question because everybody has different standards for what a good friend is.
For me, personally, I think it's somebody who really, really, truly cares for you and someone who can be loyal.
And most importantly, I think someone who is intentional.
Intentional in the sense that, like, they want to spend time with you, they want to care for you, they want to put in the effort and just go that extra mile to be there for you.
But also, these are the standards that I put on myself to be a good friend to my friends.
I think that's my definition of a good friend.
Yeah, I like that.
