2. Friendship is
a form
of interperso
nal
relationship g
enerally
considered to
be closer
than
association, al
though there
is a range of
degrees
ofintimacy in
both
friendships
and
associations.
Friendship
and
association
are often
thought of as
spanning
across the
same continuu
m and are

3. FRIENDSHIP, AS
UNDERSTOOD HERE, IS A DISTINCTIVELY PERSONAL RELATIONSHIP THAT IS
GROUNDED IN A CONCERN ON THE PART OF EACH FRIEND FOR THE WELFARE OF THE OTHER, FOR THE
OTHER'S SAKE, AND THAT INVOLVES SOME DEGREE OF INTIMACY. AS SUCH, FRIENDSHIP IS
UNDOUBTEDLY CENTRAL TO OUR LIVES, IN PART BECAUSE THE SPECIAL CONCERN WE HAVE FOR OUR
FRIENDS MUST HAVE A PLACE WITHIN A BROADER SET OF CONCERNS, INCLUDING MORAL
CONCERNS, AND IN PART BECAUSE OUR FRIENDS CAN HELP SHAPE WHO WE ARE AS PERSONS

4. , "EACH FRIEND REPRESENTS A WORLD IN US, A WORLD POSSIBLY NOT BORN UNTIL THEY ARRIVE, AND IT IS
ONLY BY THIS MEETING THAT A NEW WORLD IS BORN." THOUGH SOME NATURAL LONERS ARE HAPPY WITHOUT
THEM, MOST OF US DEPEND GREATLY ON THE COMPANY OF TRUE FRIENDS. AS WITH ANY RELATIONSHIP,
FRIENDSHIPS BRING SUPPORT AND JOY AND OCCASIONALLY STRIFE. HERE'S HOW TO MAKE FRIENDS,
UNDERSTAND FRIENDSHIP BETTER, AND BE A GREAT CONFIDANTE TO OTHERS.

5.  Value that is found in friendships is
often the result of a friend
demonstrating the following on a
consistent basis:
 The tendency to desire what is best for
the other
 Sympathy and empathy
 Honesty, perhaps in situations where it
may be difficult for others to speak
the truth, especially in terms of pointing
out the perceived faults of one's
counterpart
 Mutual understanding and compassion;
ability to go to each other for emotional
support
 Enjoyment of each other's company
 Trust in one another
 Positive reciprocity — a relationship is
based on equal give-and-take between the
two parties.
 The ability to be oneself, express one's
feelings and make mistakes without fear
of judgement.

7. YOU'RE...
MY FRIEND,
MY COMPANION,
THROUGH GOOD TIMES AND
BAD
MY FRIEND, MY BUDDY,
THROUGH HAPPY AND SAD,
BESIDE ME YOU STAND,
BESIDE ME YOU WALK,
YOU'RE THERE TO LISTEN,
YOU'RE THERE TO TALK,
WITH HAPPINESS, WITH
SMILES,
WITH PAIN AND TEARS,
I KNOW YOU'LL BE THERE,
THROUGHOUT THE YEARS!

8. "LOVE IS LIKE A BUTTERFLY. IT GOES WHERE IT
PLEASES AND IT PLEASES WHERE IT GOES."

9. TO FALL IN LOVE WITH YOUR BEST FRIEND IS THE
GREATEST THING IN THE WORLD, UNLESS THEY DON'T
LOVE YOU, IN WHICH CASE, IT IS THE WORST.

10. FRIENDSHIP ISN'T ABOUT WHOM YOU HAVE
KNOWN THE LONGEST... IT'S ABOUT WHO
CAME, AND NEVER LEFT YOUR SIDE...

11. A FRIEND IS SOMEONE WHO KNOWS THE SONG
IN YOUR HEART AND CAN SING IT BACK TO YOU
WHEN YOU HAVE FORGOTTEN THE WORDS.

13. A FRIEND IS SOMEONE WHO CAN SEE THE TRUTH
AND PAIN IN YOU EVEN WHEN YOU ARE FOOLING
EVERYONE ELSE.
 It's the times we're
so crazy,
that people think
we're high.
It's the times we
laugh so hard,
we can't help but
cry.
It's all the inside
jokes
and "remember
whens".
those are all the
reasons
that we're best
friends!

14. THE ADVICE OF FRIENDS MUST BE RECEIVED WITH A
JUDICIOUS RESERVE; WE MUST NOT GIVE OURSELVES UP
TO IT AND FOLLOW IT BLINDLY, WHETHER RIGHT OR
WRONG.

15. "A REAL FRIEND IS ONE WHO WALKS IN WHEN THE
REST OF THE WORLD WALKS OUT."

16. WHEN YOU'VE GOT A BEST FRIEND,
THINGS CAN SEEM AS RIGHT AS RAIN.

19. FRIENDSHIP ISN'T ABOUT WHOM YOU HAVE KNOWN THE
LONGEST... IT'S ABOUT WHO CAME, AND NEVER LEFT
YOUR SIDE...
