What does friendship mean in your life?

     Most of us enjoy spending good quality time with our friends and we sometimes find ourselves connecting on a different level with a select few who you could regard as best friends. They are the people you share your closest world with, your secrets, your joys, your troubles, your exciting news and hope when you reveal your deepest inner feelings or experiences of life your friend will keep this information to themselves.

    Friendship is the eternal theme. Of course, it has many advantages.

Friendship is only everlasting feature in this world. Friendship will reside in our heart during the whole life. Friends will try to find new ways to make you not to fall. Friends may not save but they never let you go to deep. Friends find innovative ways to stop you from falling and try to get some more help to lift you.

   Friends will cheer us when we’re sorrowful or depressed. Friends will motivate us when we’re ready to give in, and they can provide for us when life falls apart. Friends are there when all is well, and we want someone with whom to share life’s pleasant and memorable moments. We often just want them around, to have a good time, to laugh.They motivate us to attain our goal. They will stand by our side when you need a support.

   

But the dark side of friendship is betrayal.

Jealousy can hurt someone's self esteem and may also end a friendship.

Cheating with a romantic partner or spouse may end a friendship.

Betrayal can be defined as when a friend lets you down and is not there for you emotionally, or even literally: when a friend ends your friendship but you still want it to continue.

But some potentially destructive or harmful friendships may be difficult to spot. That's because when a friendship is forming, during the "courtship" phase, your friend may be charming, polite, and completely appropriate. Once your friendship is well underway, a friend may change. The very act of becoming friends may send someone with intimacy problems into an emotional tailspin, changing those involved as well as their behavior toward each other. As friends become closer and more intimate, expectations also may arise so that disappointments become more likely, and painful, than during the early stage of the evolving friendship.

If a friend ends a friendship and you are obsessed with not knowing why, you will probably have to deal with the reason for your obsession. In other words, you may never know the answer.

   A lot of people go through life with only a few friends. They have no one on whom they can call in good times or bad. There is no one with whom to bounce ideas around, or to talk about deep and troubling subjects. They have no one to call in times of need or difficulty.

  Others seem to have a multiple number of friends. Wherever they go, people know them, and like to be around them. when a trouble strike, their biggest hesitation might be over which friend to call. They know exactly the person with whom to discuss the topics of inquiry and debate.

  Some people are perfectly happy to operate with fewer friends. They might rather have a few deep and loyal friends, than many superficial ones. Others thrive best when friends are everywhere and numerous. Loyal and deep friendship is good. It doesn't care about the numbers. Even if you have one loyal trustable friend, it is better than to have hundreds of superficial friends. With the trusted friends we can discuss our problem areas and get ideas for solving them also. These friends share their time with us to solve problems.

   We can tell a lot about friendship and friends. You may have a lot of friends but try to get a friend who is loyal, trustable to you and be like that to your friend also. That is the only meaning of friendship. Friends come and go, but with the precious few we shall live our lives happily.
