Why do you think friendship is so important to people?

Friendship has always been appreciated. Only earlier did people put another subtext into the meaning of the word “to be friends”. And friendship was tantamount to understanding, support, mutual assistance, loyalty. Being a friend means doing good things for your friend (giving advice, sharing material values). Today friendship is, first of all, a benefit. It is beneficial to make friends with a person who occupies a better position in society than you. There are very few examples of disinterested friendship. Truly small children know how to be friends.
