Breakups happen to friends, too. Here’s how to find closure, while preserving your heart and dignity. As life gets busier due to career, family, and other demands, friendships may seem inessential.

An Ode To Friendship!

What is friendship? Well, friendship is too vast a concept or a relationship for a clear-cut definition. In fact, it always remains better-off undefined, and even unfathomable.

Some friends are made instantly, on the first exchange of mutual likes or in line with that saying 'love at first sight' being replaced with 'friendship at first sight', while some others take time to bloom into a perfect relationship.

Aristotle’s Three lessons On Friendship

Or you were quite friendly with a neighbor who moved away, and your contact ended. You probably know what's like to get together with a close friend who you haven't seen for a long time. It's as though you were never apart. Your connection is based on many shared experiences, values, and feelings, and it remains strong. Circumstantial friendships don't provide the same type of bond, but that doesn't mean they're not valuable. It's likely that when you enter a new environment, you will meet people you enjoy, but don't feel a deep conne...
