There are a lot of articles about friendship. Different approaches by different authors. Friendship, as we know, is the close relationship of the people who have hurdled the good and the bad times together. It is knowing a person not by name but by attitude; the way they act, what they like, what they eat, drink, watch, do, everything! It is a process which develops through time. However, the length of time you've known the person is not the major factor in building a quality friendship. It's about feeling o.k. when you"re with that person. At ease with her and the feeling is mutual. Friendship is being open to one another. It's not hiding anything from a person. It's about being yourself and you"re comfortable about it. You"re not ashamed of admitting that you once worked in a fast-food chain or you have this horrible habit of picking your teeth in public. You"re confident that your friend won't change her views about you. Friendship is acceptance! You have accepted him for what he/she is with their good traits and the not-so-good ones and your friend the same. Friendship is about mutuality, equity!.
