I know he is. But what does that matter? He's my closest friend, I'm not trying to be him.

He also cares about me, and takes care of me, and swore to protect me if I needed it. He understands me and cheers me up when I'm sad and wants me to be happy. He listens to me even when I'm talking about nothing and want to talk to fill the silence. Those things do make him a good friend.

Any number of them make anyone a good friend.
