How to have great friendships
Being a good friend and having a good friend can enrich our days and bring life long satisfaction. Friendships don't just happen; they have to be created and nurtured like any other relationship. Good friendships require open communication, sensitivity between friends, and love and affection.

Communication is the key to better friendships. Communication can only be honest and open when there are frequent meetings with friends. In other words you should make time for your friends and share honest feelings and sentiments. Moreover, friendship is the name of honest relation, which ultimately leads to good friendship.

One should also be sensitive towards the friend. You should be caring and sharing in order to built a better relation. Firstly, accept your mistakes if you make any because we learn from our mistakes and ther is no harm in making some in life. Sometimes you think that if your friends see your flaws they wouldn't like you but they may actually like you more after knowing your flaws and mistakes. Secondly, every relation has its own demands, which need to be fulfilled, and it is the same with friendship. Take initiative in finding out the demands; give opportunity to the relationship to be stronger. Sometimes you resist or hesitate telling friends your sorrows, feelings and secrets but, after sharing it gives a sort of relaxation. Even though the nature of sorrow will remain the same the feeling will change.

Love is an essential essence of every relationship and it is very obvious in friendship also. Remember your friends' birthdays, send them get well cards and notes, call them frequently. These will show that you love your friend. Giving respect and showing concern is not only a demand of any social relationship but is very important for friendship. Respect your friend's ideas, feelings and thoughts. The golden rule is to give and give lots of love. Be accessible to your friends and don't ignore them.

To conclude, friends are the gift of God. A cooperative and honest friend makes a person?s life joyful. Personally, I believe that the above-mentioned key points can help a person build better friendships.
