Friendship

We all need friends. Friends play an important role in our life. Sometimes we take friends for granted . Every day we mix with hundreds of people, get on well with some of them and make friends with only a few. Some people have lots of friends, others are very reluctant to make new friends.

In my opinion a real friend is a person whom you trust and respect, who is «a friend in need» and who never lets you down. There are no rules of how to make friends. Usually friendship between people grows when they have common views and judgments on things and events, have common interests. We should treat friends with understanding , sympathy and compassion , exactly the way we want to be treated by them.

In general I have a lot of acquaintances. But only two or three of them are really dear to me and I can call them friends. My best friend is _________. We have known each other since ___________________. But our friendship really started when _________________________________ I felt that she was a similar soul . We sometimes quarrel, but we make up our quarrels in no time. We can’t stay angry with each other for more than a day.

She/he is reliable and never lets me down. I can trust her/him as much as I do myself. She we always share joys and sorrows. These are the qualities I like about her/him most of all.
