Third item= Loyalty

Loyalty to me is: 
Are you saying the same things in front of a person, as you are when they are not around, or depending on your company. 

If that person/persons were not around, would they be feeling a slight poking in their back...

Now hopefully you are saying nice and/or thoughtfully constructive things to the person's face ;)

I would like to think that my friends know they are my friends, and they will not hear heresy about them from anyone else, that supposedly came from my lips. (I'm not perfect, and it could happen I suppose). If I have an issue with someone, I will go to that someone.

Anyway, a movie clip comes to mind: The brief part in the movie "The Count of Monte Cristo" when Edmond is knife fighting with Jacopo, and wins. He then spares his life, to which Jacopo blurts out, "I am your man".

I think it is the same, you give your Loyalty to a person who deserves it. It is a two way street.
