................. an assessment of new friends?

Imo, the best time to evaluate a person's character is:

1 when drinking;
2 when gambling;
3 in the presence of women
 
................. an assessment of new friends?

when good times end and things go south (as in been gay's case).
when mishaps or sickness happen and friend is in danger (as in besotted's case).
when you meet aliens and solve space travel, but no one believes you (as in gms' case).

Only through time only then u can assess your friend character. Good friend r like your wife, through thick and thin. Only thing is when u break up no need to split assets...lol or at least no woman charter in play here.

1.when drinking, 2 when gambling & 3 in the presence of women easily relates to your vices or daily practises & your new friends will often play along but be aware of their reactions to more mundane situations. sometimes a off the cuff remark or a quirky comment from you unsettles them & you'll see the true person for who he/she is.

always apply the once bitten twice shy principle when dealing with so called new friends, your deadliest enemies are the ones closest to you & not your rivals. your training at your previous work should have given you a good judgement of character, if you die die have to make an assessment, the most important test is the loyalty test. from your posts, you sound like you have insight or experience working with intel officers so you should know their mindset of testing & trust. no need for me to say anymore.
 
Gambling...specifically mahjong.
In HK the prospective in laws like to size up their potential son or daughter in laws on the mahjong table....
I have found how you behave on the mahjong table mirrors a person's character.
 
Bro Nw, guessed you watched too much made in HK movies Liao..;)
 
Sometimes very hard to see one's true colours straightaway.. It takes time.. Friends will backstab friends because of money.. Money will make a friend show his true colours..

It's true. Ask any HK friends you have....also pertaining to the popularity of such movies precisely proves my point....mahjong is very much a way of life....
 
I have no friends. No such problem exist. Why do you need to have friend?

4. When both of you are naked in the same room.
 
When u have money problem ;)

"fair weather friends" come to mind, not only money problems, times when one is in need, whether a shoulder to cry on or gone into some emotional depth, especially telling; is when your friend knowing you take advantage of you..that is the best time, you know who your true friend is. I learn this very young watching "gu long" wuxia movies, his famous line from his "sentimental swordsman" novel ( movie also), "Your best friend, is your best enemy".
