Caesar's Speech

I understand Brutus is trying to be a good friend and do what is best for me, and my reputation, but you need to let your friends make their own decisions, maybe give them some advice, but in the end you don’t need to make the decision for them.
Not being trustworthy is the biggest problem you can have in a friendship. Like when Brutus killed me and said to his fellows, “let no man abide this deed But us the doers.”(III,I,94)When he did this he was doing no deed, he was being an untrustworthy “friend.”Friends always need to be trustworthy, and honest so you can trust them with any secret or whatever you might tell them. You should be able to look away from your friend without the possibility of them murdering you!
Friends should always be respectful. Friends also need to be respectful of the other persons well-being, body, and safety.
When Brutus said,” Let us bathe our hands in Caesar’s blood, up to the elbows, and besmear our swords.”(III,I,106) This is breaking another rule in the opinion of everybody, not to mention cruel and disgusting. Also you should respect your friends opinions and accept them, such as my opinion on not needing to be killed.
Friends should always be respectful to you and your opinions, and be trustworthy to not harm you physically or mentally.

Julius Caesar, and Friendship
What does friendship mean to me? To me friendship is always being respectful to your friends, and being trustworthy with any secret or task. If you are disrespectful or dishonest you are not a good friend. Such as Brutus killing me and calling it a “good deed.”I understand Brutus is trying to be a good friend and do what is best for me, and my reputation, but you need to let your friends make their own decisions, maybe give them some advice, but in the end you don’t need to make the decision for them.

To Brutus,
Calphurnia is really making me angry. It is almost like I can't do anything without her being nosey and asking me questions and taking every oprotunity to criticize me. I almost feel like I want to just divorce her and get it over with! I am just about fed up with her.
Sincerely, Caesar
To Caesar,
Don't make any big decisions before thinking about them first. you need to step back take deep breathes, and maybe even tell her you are leaving for a while! I will be here for you if you have any problems.
