I think friendship is something unique and personal to the individuals who are connected to one another. All I have ever wanted in a friendship is to know I am liked and appreciated. Personally I don’t have loads of friends I hang out with. Being married can change the friendship dynamic with other non-family members I suppose. There is value in these voluntary relationships because they offer companionship and support. I don’t ask much from my friendships. No one should take friends for granted because they are hard to come by. I am not the best at friendships for some reason. Maybe I want to be as valued as much as I value others. I think I’m a okay bloke but sometimes I wonder. Friendship is indeed a two way street though.

I agree. It’s hard to find genuine connections with people but it’s a beautiful thing when you’re able to. It’s really hard to find a friendship that is a two sided.

I’ve thought a long time about this Tony, fluctuating between yes friendships should be two-sided, to not all friendships are equal. I’ve learned that sometimes you can be a friend to someone, but they are not necessarily a friend to you…as you can see, I’ve not really come to a firm conclusion. But I do agree that friendships are hard.
