What does friendship mean and what kind of friends do you want to make?
I totally agree with your opinion Leyla. Friends are important in our life and people have the different definitions of friend. As I am concerned, true friends always support behind you and never leave you, keep your secret, know your heart, encourage you when you need support, never break a confidence, respect your opinion and also be a good listener. :)
Hi:)
Real friends never use each other.They understand,love,help one another.The friend is the person with whom you may share times when you are happy,when you are sad.The friend does not wait from you something.He or she always think about you and ask:how are you?
:))))
Friendship as we know it today, is actually more of a social construct that was never existent thousands of years ago, in those times you had what is now known as “allies”, people whom you share a mutual goal with- in most cases very materialistic ones, such as own land or cattle- and whom are willing put an effort in order to achieve that mutual. Now the flip side of having an ally is that today’s ally can be tomorrow’s foe, however that was simply the way world worked for thousands of years, so to wrap things up, in order for a “Friendship” to succeed, there must exist a mutual goal , and mutual goals are absolutely not the same as mutual interests, you’d better make a distinction between those two.
