When we honestly ask ourselves which person in our lives mean the most to us, we often find that it is those who, instead of giving advice, solutions, or cures, have chosen rather to share our pain and touch our wounds with a warm and tender hand. The friend who can be silent with us in a moment of despair or confusion, who can stay with us in an hour of grief and bereavement, who can tolerate not knowing, not curing, not healing and face with us the reality of our powerlessness, that is a friend who cares. ~Henri Nouwen
A true friend reaches for your hand and touches your heart. ~Author Unknown
We are keenly aware of the faults of our friends, but if they like us enough it doesn't matter. ~Mignon McLaughlin, The Neurotic's Notebook, 1960
But oh! the blessing it is to have a friend to whom one can speak fearlessly on any subject; with whom one's deepest as well as one's most foolish thoughts come out simply and safely. Oh, the comfort - the inexpressible comfort of feeling safe with a person - having neither to weigh thoughts nor measure words, but pouring them all right out, just as they are, chaff and grain together; certain that a faithful hand will take and sift them, keep what is worth keeping, and then with the breath of kindness blow the rest away. ~Dinah Craik, A Life for a Life, 1859
A good friend is a connection to life - a tie to the past, a road to the future, the key to sanity in a totally insane world. ~Lois Wyse
The best way to mend a broken heart is time and girlfriends. ~Gwyneth Palt

Girlfriend birthday present ideas?

Hey,
So my girlfriend is going to be 22 on Monday and I'm wondering what to get her! I have a limit of around £50. There is nothing that I know of that she really needs, which is where I'm stuck.. For previous xmas/birthdays something of hers has been broken and I've replaced it for her.. iPod, mobile phone etc. But now all is working!
So what should I buy her? She loves reading books but I couldn't pick one for her.. maybe an Amazon gift card? :S
Thanks.. :p
Answer
She might like these books:
The Vampire Diaries series by L.J. Smith
Eragon series by Christopher Paolini
Twilight series by Stephenie Meyer
Harry Potter series by J. K. Rowling
Vampire Kisses series by Ellen Schreiber
Blue Bloods series by Melissa De La Cruz
Cirque du Freak series by Darren Shan
Vampire Academy series by Richelle Mead
The Mortal Instruments series by Cassandra Clare
The Chronicles of Narnia series by C. S. Lewis
Dragon Slippers by Jessica Day George
Peeps by Scott Westerfeld
Black Dagger Brotherhood series by J. R. Ward (I only recommend this book if you are over the age of 16 and mature)
Night World series by L. J. Smith
Hunger Games series by Suzanne Collins
The Host by Stephenie Meyer
Shiver by Maggie Stiefvater
Angels in Pink by Lurlene McDaniel
Looking for Alaska by John Green

But if not try making her a homemade dinner, taking her to a movie, making her a card, a poem, take her on a picnic, really anything cute and romantic like that. I would love it if my boyfriend did that. But if she isnt into stuff like that (but most females are) go with the gift card.
