We all have friends, am sure of that. I was just thinking one day and came up with these “codes” of friendship that would likely improve your friendship.
- Friendship is a two-way traffic just like any other relationship; it doesn’t have to be the same person calling and texting all the time. If you truly consider the person as your friend, check up on them once in a while.
- Cos someone helps you every time you ask doesn’t mean you should take the person for a ‘ride’.
- Never see your friend as a burden, you never know when you never know when the tables could turn around.
- Speaking untruthfully about your friend is a no-no. don’t make your friend look bad so as to look good.
- Jealousy/envy and friendship don’t go together. It’s okay to admire your friend but when that begins to turn to subtle hate and wishing bad stuff, it has gone wrong. BTW, you are two different people.
- It’s alright to have a laugh at a friend when something silly happens but it isn’t okay to constantly create scenarios where the friend is the object of ridicule.
- Your friends would always have other friends even if it’s your bestie. So don’t give way to any iota of jealousy when your friend does a countdown to another friend’s birthday or something of that sort.
- Never forget the friends that stayed by you and encouraged you during the hard times, they are rare assets.
- Always look at things from different angles before drawing conclusions. Cos someone (your friend) doesn’t reply your text immediately you send it doesn’t instantly mean the person is ignoring you, it may just be that the phone is out of reach or they are low on credit or bars or a whole possibilities.
