I just got in this discussion with a friend of mine, and it really made me think. Personally, I think that friendship is more important, because I know from personal experience that you can have love but no friends and be very unhappy, but you can have friends and no lover and still be quite content. My friend contradicted me, saying that love is the most important thing in the world and you cannot survive without it. I still am not convinced though. What do y'all think?

well i think love is a very wide word. we can love our friends, we can love our partner and we can love our family and relatives. when we love someone then we talk to them and by talking to them we build this friendship. so in every person you like to talk to that you love and cared for you build a certain friendship. love has different level of feeling so i think love is important. that is how i see this. welcome to the wonderful world of mylot katran

Friendship is the most important. Romantic love is icing on the cake. What a nice thing to add to friendship! If you have both thank your lucky stars for it is rare.

Hi friend I think thatlove and friendship both are important in life because both have different places secured in heart and moreover love is a emotion which we feel about a single person who is close to us then rest of all peoples so finding such person with whome we can share our innermost thought is very important for us.whereas we all know that man is a social animal so we also rquir friends to interact with and if we dont have friends than we would become unhappy,in this way both love and friendship are very much necessary for us to live.

as far as i'm concerned ... both are very important . without friends , u may lose many joyful and meaningful experience . on the other hand , i don't think u can live happy without love ....
that's my opinion. h
