What makes friendship or a relationship last forever?

honesty and sincerity. that what make friendship last forever. you need to be honest in making a friend. without sincerity at last friendship will fade just like that.

Inorder to make a relation last, first of all there should be a big amount of love factor involved. Then there should be understanding, caring & compatibility. If these are there, then a relation will mostly last for a longer period of time. Happy Lotting

Good call with the communication thing. I wouldn't have thought of that, but that's definitely a HUGE aspect of maintaining a friendship: of COURSE you have to keep in touch! Other than that, I Don't really know HOW friends manage to stay friends over the years; although one of my best friends - I've known since I was 6 years old (so - 13 years) and we call each other AT LEAST once a week if not more to "catch up" and stay caught up. I don't know what it is - we're both really different, so we don't have too many ties to keep us together. But I think our personalities mesh well together, and we generally have fun together. So, it works out. Communication definitely plays a huge role in the success of our friendship, though!

Good communication as you have pointed out sure does make a friendship last. But one needs to communicate on subjects that hold the interests of both. Sometimes one needs to perform trapeze acts as everyday is not a Sunday. There are bound to be ups and downs and the art to retrieve friendship when there is a downslide is the true secret of holding on to a friendship. Last but not the least is that whether we like it or not depending on each other whatever it may be becomes a prerequisite to hold on to a friendship.

Yes, I agree communication is the best way to keep a frienship going. Talking about the little things that happen during the day. Knowing the person weaknesses and strengths help too especially if they are sensetive on their weakness. Knowing when to support them when they are down and just listening to them can do a world of good even though you have heard the story 100 of times. Telling once in while that they great and that your life would not be same without them. Doing the little things without them telling you like a card to say HI just out the blue or one flower to say I thought of your today. Funny joke can go long way to and humour. I hope these ideas help Have a great day Sincerely Unqiue16
