i think now a days friends r better than family members because they dont have jealousies on us and they r the one who b with us even thought we r happy r sad .its very horrible every where with family members .they always feel jealous and they r in such a situation that they dont even take a back step in doing crimes also.i have seen many people doing harm because only of jealousy.

It depends from person to person, It depends on where you find your friend. Some times its your aunty who is more closer to you and a best friends who cares for you and thinks about your welfare.
Anyway friends are good and in some rare cases thay may cheat and we have to be cautious about that friend from that mooment (when he cheats).
Sometimes your greatest friend may be your dog:)

Well i like to be with my friends, as I am living away from home but that doesn't mean that my family members are jealous of me or I don't want to be with them, Friends their own space in my life and parents alo have different sapce they both can't take each others place.
We feel comfortable with friends while going places because what I think they think too, but with parents there is some age gap, so what I like they don't.

Honestly speaking, i am agree with your point. It completely depends on how many and what kind of environment your family has. I have grown up in a combined family (Over 20 members), never felt that someone is jealous is another one, yes! competition is always there, and it should exist always. All my family members were always helpful and willing to do anything for each other. Even small things was used to hurt everyone there, small quarrels are obvious when many persons are living together, that is acceptable for me. Essential factor is good understanding.
I don't have many friends, only 6 i have. All those 6 are more than my life for me. I love them, i like to spend time with them. being with them is a special feeling, there is independence to say anything, share thoughts,feelings and have lots of joy. Whatever, the only factor important is good understanding and wish to see each other happy. Nothing can go wrong after that.

well, I don't kinda agree on that. You cannot say that friends are better then family. Family has done a lot for you for such a long time. Their contribution shouldn't be forgotten. Friends are good alright but the two shouldn't be compared.

I disagree, I still believe in strong family ties, that friend can dump you out anytime not a family member.

Good friends are family members. Common blood doesn't really mean anything.
