Pigeon fly with pigeons and eagle fly with eagles. Business men become the friends of business men. Such as students like to become the friends of students. This rule of friendship causes to tight the friendship relation. You have seen much business friendship and you thought they last better than other friends. I agree with you.

It really depends on how well you stay in touch with them once you leave that business or once they leave. I have friends from past jobs that I have kept in touch with and I have to say I've kept them longer after the job ended than I kept high school friends after high school. I guess once you are hanging out with the same people day after day you develop a strong bond with them. If any of my former co-workers that I felt close with ever needed any help, I would do everything I could to help them.

I can't really say yeah or nay to the question.. I have always been told the old saying, "friends is friends, but business is business". I guess it truly depends on how good of friends ya'll are, and if ya'll can compromise and have the same goal and dream in mind!
