The best way to describe friendship is by giving a simple example. Two people who get to know each other during school days, their friendship develops over time, they become really close and know everything about each other, but due to the nature of life, they drift apart and after few years meet again with the same enthusiasm. This is because friendship is based on trust and support between two people. There are no secrets, and individuals are free to speak their minds and help other people with honesty. It, therefore, lasts for a long time because people involved have known each other for a long time and have been through thick and thin together. People can be friends with the ones they like, be it of their own or different sex. Varying levels of friendship exists too, such as best friends and best friends forever.
These are different from friendships in many ways and can be of two types. The first one is the blood relations when people are related to each other because of their parents, such as extended family. The other type of relationship is the one which is termed as commitment and includes intimacy. People get into a relationship on mutual admiration and start depending on each other for different life matters. Individuals in a relationship are not always free to make their own choices since they are responsible for others and have to keep in mind what is the best option for all the people involved. Usually, commitment is a girl and a boy, and a relationship of blood is between families. There are no codes for a relationship and is based on understanding that two people will be sincere to each other over the course of time. It can last for a long time or people can part ways to find a better companion.
