Friendship, when you are nice and do loving things for your friends, even when they do not always do the same amount for you, well you see I have one of my friends I have always done many things for her but recently we had a bit of a disagreement but I did not say that much to her at the time thinking that if I say something when I am upset with my friends that I could say the wrong thing and then this may break our friendship, as this friend I have been friends with her for over 15 years so anyway I phoned her this morning to see how she was going and she told me that she was not coping that well and had feeling lonely but that she had gone to her brothers home for the weekend, I then explained my daughters living situation and that she was looking for somewhere else to live close to the city so that she could apply for a permanent job and my friend said to me that she would be very happy if my daughter would consider coming and living with her so that she would not be so lonely and knows my daughter is a hard working girl and very clean and would keep her company, so now everything has worked out for the best and I feel so much more comfortably knowing my daughter will also be in a better well kept home and loved by someone else that is like family to me and I do know that my daughter will treat my friend with respect and love more than her own daughter.

Friendship is so important for everyone, without friends, our life is meaningless, you cannot share your happiness and unhappiness with someone.
For women ,it is especially important, sometimes, women just want to find someone to talk with, even they are not seeking solutions for some problems, they just want someone to listen to them.
Sometimes I feel unhappy because I lost contact with some of my friends, I want to cherish the friendship because it is my luck to make friend with someone.

I guess it may be the name thing. i am just like that i do so much for my few friends that I have but when theydo me wrong I say nothing about fearing that it would hurt their feeling. But just like you most of hte time it workd out in the long run. Glad to see someone else still takes othe people's feelings into consideration.

Thank you Kassy, for responding to my discussion about my friend and yes we have been friends for over 15 years now and it does pay off to close your mouth sometimes even when your friend can make you mad but I always consider my friends how they feel about things and yes my daughter will be moving in this weekend.

Hi kathy, I am glad that by holding your tongue you have probably gained a closer bonding with your friend and by your taking the initiative to call her to show concern you, your daughter and your friend have benefited from it. Bless your heart!

Friendship is a very special thing, especially for women. Women seem to need the friendship of other women in a very different way to men having their men-friends.
I'm glad that everything turned out good between your friend and you after your disagreement, because now your daughter is living there, she will be able to experience the same kind of friendship perhaps. And you have peace of mind knowing she is safe living at your friend's place too! Everybody is happy - a great outcome for everyone concerned.

I think both friendship and love are important in our daily life.
