FRIENDSHIP DEFINED

WHAT IS FRIENDSHIP?

This is a question that has been defined in several  ways by so many authors, and  yet, their seems not to be a unified definition of this very word “FRIENDSHIP”, based on its CONCEPTION, AND LIMITS
SETTING theories, which tends to create a more significant picture of friendship, and of the need for it.

BUT DO YOU  KNOW THAT FINDING A BEST FRIEND FROM AMONG YOUR NUMEROUS NUMBER OF FRIENDS IS A HARD TASK? ARE YOU AMONG THOSE WHO BELIEVE THAT A BEST EMERGES AUTOMATICALLY? DO YOU NEED TO MAKE AN EXTRA EFFORT TO FIND ONE? HOW DO YOU THINK A BEST FRIEND SHOULD BE FIND? WHATS YOUR OWN OPINION? LET HEAR FROM YOU!.

According to mark Vernon, in his article, “The picture becomes more complex again if a comparism is made between some of the things people say about friendship today with what the Greeks thought of friendship in the past. For example, today, many hold the belief that best friends are those who you do not see often, but when you do , you immediately pick up where you left off. A variation on this is the belief that best friends are those you can call when you have a problem, or that they are those who might come and go, but without damage to the relationship” = www.markvernon.com.

BELOW ARE SOME BEST DEFINITIONS OR MEANING OF FRIENDSHIP

Friendship is a relationship between two or more people who`re friends.

Friendship is the behavioural feelings in relationship between friends of mutual interest, trust and affection.

Friendship is a charactristics of mutual trust, assistance, approval, and support between countries, organizations, or two or more people who are friends.

Friendship Is an emotional bond which is formed by countries, nations, people, organizations. True friendship respects and shares each others interests, opinions, hobbies and lifesstyle.

Friends are necessities of one`s life which is impossible to live without. A true friend can always care, and also sometimes, a source of a happiness and well being of a friend, especially when one is sad or worried. They become source of soothing ornaments by their opinion, advice and encouragement to you.

A true friend can do just anything possible to help a friend. You can confide in a true friend more than you do to a colleague, partner,acquaintance, or a family member.

“Friendship is a personal reletionship shared between friends, it is the relationship of intimacy, caring , faith, mutual trust and feelings for one another. A true friend is one who knows you for who you are, what you are, and not what he/she expects to see from you, because a good friend is a friend who accepts all the qualities in you=good or bad as well as taking initiatives to correcting or amends them.

True Friendship involves much care and understanding each other, it’s a relationship meant to bring joy and happiness, building and a strong relationship loyalty among friends. Though, there are some friendship which doesn`t last or end up well. This usually happens when some pressing issues are left unresolved.

Please note that “not all friends are best friends. What remains constant in life is change. People changes not by colour, but changing from the manner they used to do things” ,and so, your best friend is not exceptional. He/She could equally change, and this change if not for the best interest of the relationship or both friends, leads to break-up. You could come across several numbers of friends in your lifetime in the course of searching for a true friendship, but only few could be their for you when the need arises.

How you can recognize a best friend: A best friend is one who understands the strenghts and shortcomings of his/her friend, and will always be their both in good and bad situations of his/her friends life. A good friend is measured by the value and capability to hold and stand by you during a trial period. A friend in need is truly a friend indeed. Who is your best friend? Do you know much about the very person you call your best friend?.
