What is friendship?

7 posts in this topic

Hello guys. I come with a question/discussion,

What is friendship? Why do we make friends? What does it provide us?

Is it a reptilian tendency? Is it a societal coping strategy? An extension of your self?

What is the true reason for human connection?

Post opinions :D. Interested to hear what you guys think.

@ZX_man As humans we are social beings, so it’s in our DNA to want human connections and company.

If you have to make friends, you make friends out of egotistic desires.

Friendships made out of egotistic desires are not friendships, are just some object that keeps you warm for some time, just for some time because consequences never take too long to appear. 

You will have what you call "friendships" when you'll know what love is. Until then, you will just use other people for your own purposes, and they'll also use you for their own purposes. You just attract what you are.

  • To learn from ΤΗΕΜ
  • To open your mind with different ideas
  • To companionship in very hard and sad situations
  • To share your happiness ,thoughts, express yourself
  • To show your reflection on your bad behaviors
  • To have just a drink and fun every now and then, you can not be dead serious all the time

And i can go on and on...

@ZX_man  I think that it nowdays is something that is needed to avoid boredom.

It used to be needed for survival. If alone, the dinosours would easily eat you.

 

They say that most households in Sweden are those of single people.

I guess it may be different in mediterranean countries and so on?

need for friendship is a societal convention/lie that we grow up believing and is supported. the want of friendship is good in my opinion.

friendships:

-the connection is the most important, the love

-the ability to express yourself and ideas

-warmth it brings and brightness to your life, makes your life less dry
