Have you ever noticed that our friends have different hobbies, attitudes, and personalities? :)
What are the types of friends you need to have?
What are the types of friends you need to have?
The “we were classmates” friends
These people are your friends because you were in school or university and happen to get along well together. You have a lot of common memories and stories from the past to share. You will most likely have their names in your cell phone but you wouldn’t call them out of the blue “just to say hi”.
The “we hang out together” friends
These people are usually the ones we call good acquaintances. You often went partying or clubbing together. You know their likes and dislikes and you happy to see them. But you won’t share with them your problems or really personal stuff.
The “common interests” friends
These are the people who share the same interests with you. Maybe you are both part of a club or organization where you share the same hobby.
The “Online” friends
This is the most uncommon type of friend, but they can also be the most precious. You never met them or probably won’t, but this what allows you to pour your feelings to them. You probably don’t know they real name and can vaguely know how they look, but can spent hours commenting their statuses or posts.
The “business” friends
These are the friends with whom you are engaged in one business, organization or cause. You will always stay polite with them. You contact them in case you need to talk about business or invite them to some social event.
The “let’s meet up” friends
These are what you call, your close friends. They are the ones whom you would enjoy having lunch or dinner one-on-one, enjoy holding a conversation with, and enjoy joking with. They usually belong to your tightly-knit group of 3 to 4 (a more intimate clique). The thing about this type of friend is that they make it a point to keep in touch with you because they actually do miss you, and they really want to spend time with you and know what’s up with your life, and share with you theirs. Oh, and they will remember your birthday and never fail to wish for you.

The “BEST” friends
Also known as your closest friends in life. They will usually be your maid of honor or best man during your wedding. You like to talk to each other on the phone all the time. You always have a great time eating dinner together with him/her alone on a semi-regular basis and chatting one-on-one for hours. Heck, you can easily spend the whole day with each other everyday. You guys can really talk about anything under the sun, and you totally understand how each other feel. Being with this type of friends can be both fun and emotionally fulfilling. They make you feel happy to be alive.
Some of your friends will fall into 2 or more types. But for sure, every type I mentioned, there’s always a name of a friend that will pop out of your mind. :)
Treasure your friends!
