At the beginning of our social life, which should begin in primary school and in our neighborhood, we become part of a small and select group of friends who share some common distractions and actions, such as: playing soccer, playing ball or having fun in a nearby park. This would be our first contact with people of our same age and with whom we can create emotional ties or consider them just acquaintances for the moment.
I think that true circles of friends, with whom a close bond of companionship and more than friendship is maintained, can be consolidated in the secondary school stage and at the university level. These bonds of friendship can extend for a long period of our lives if the foundations for a solid relationship with common goals are laid.
In everyday life, it is necessary to have our life partner, our close relatives and definitely to have a circle of friends who are available to support that friendship, knowing that at some point in our lives we will have a sentimental, emotional or economic relapse that will need a friendly hand to help us get up and energetically continue the course of a normal life.
From my own experience, I have realized that to maintain an active circle of friends until the end of our days, there must be a physical closeness that allows constant interaction of activities such as: visits, birthday celebrations, weekend barbecues, board games, etc., since distancing and intermittent interaction in distant times undermines the foundations of a real friendship. My friends from adolescence took different paths in life, nothing in common that kept us in active contact and it was dissipated and faded away until it was only part of a memory. "UNFORTUNATELY"
