Making friends nowadays is not easy either if you are living in a big city or in a small town. Keeping them for a long-term relationship, is even more difficult! It is sooo ironic in a world of social-networking, finding friends websites or dating applications to (still) consider hard to meet people and to make friends! But how can we do it though?

A good friendship is a relation based on trust, respect, honesty and sympathy. Also, you have to know when to make compromises, because with no compromises – no relationship (of any kind) will last! If, for instance, you have an old good friend, make sure you will keep in touch with him/her no matter how busy you are, how tired you are or even how far from each other you are! If it is possible get together as often as you can and be there whenever he/she needs you. This is something that you will always receive in exchange even when you would expect less. To have a good friend who can always count on, is priceless!
Whether you have a new friend, the rules are not too different in order to make that relationship work. Just make sure when you meet each other, you will use that time to share experiences, to talk, to laugh and have fun and do not keep your eyes on the phones forgetting completely about your company! This type of relationship goes nowhere. Because if you just met someone who you can get along with and you feel like having a good connection with, why wouldn’t you try your best to have that person around for long time?
Having good, close friends is important for a good quality life for everyone. That’s why more lonely, antisocial people get depressed and end up commiting suicide than people who are surrounded by friends.
If you ever had a house plant in your home, you should know that if you take good care of it, if you show it love and affection, if you water it regularly – that plant will grow big and nice and it will thrill you every single day! It is exactly the same thing with your friends! Show them love, take care of them, give them a little bit of your time and your friendship will become stronger and one of the best! Guaranteed!
