Friendship is one of the best gifts one can have when you're with the right people but I've witnessed 3 friends not working out. They are always better off as 2 friends until the third comes in and turns out to be in the middle till everything becomes chaotic.
Is it a bad idea joining 2 friends who are close to become the third? Why if yes?
Hello, everyone has a true friend. In good times you have lots of friends, but when you’re in a difficult situation – whether it’s health, money or something else – you realise who your real friends are. That’s why I say that having lots of friends isn’t necessarily a good thing.
I would really agree with you on that. Only genuine friends would stand by you in times of trouble.
I've witnessed friends spoiling the reputation of another behind her but acting like good one before her and I kept wondering how she's managing to do this
It's good to have friends especially when they are good ones but one gets to hate themselves when they get involved with bad friends
Well, a friend who is not friending, can we call that type of friendship friend? I guess not because in my own opinion, if I understand this question very well, it's best to let two friends continue their friendship than bringing a third party.
Yeahhhh it's true based on the things I've seen lately. Being the third will always put you in a difficult situation.
They always have someone to report each other to when they feel offended which isn't so before your arrival
Cos from what ive seen also heard, one will definitely be closer than the other Which might later bring a form of division if care isn't taken.Thou we have trio can is doing well but with extra effort because it takes two, three to tangle and without agreement, it won't work.
Exactly the problem. It's rare before you can be equal in friendship with the two and then it looks like you are taking sides or like a hypocrite
You understand this thing 💯 the bond won't be as strong, and one funny thing that usually happens sometimes, the third person might become closer to any of them, hence shifting attention from the other person
The worst part is one badmouthing the other to you and you will be like are these people not very close friends before?
That is one of the issue I was talking about, instead of addressing things, there will always be something like picking of side
But we do see a group of friends like 5,6 or more and they are fine.
Is there something special about 2 friends been a complicated one to join
I just feel with two, they will understand eachother better, but it can definitely go beyond two once there's a mutual understanding....that is important
Like there are two friends already, you love them probably because of how they do things and wanted to be friends with them and become their third friend
Oh! I get it now. Personally, I don't think it's something bad so far there is a mutual understanding between them and one is not trying to hijack the friendship. Mutual understanding is very important in such friendship...
That's exactly where I'm driving at. For me as well,I don't think it's bad
Friendship is not an enclosed one not open to extension because of the fear of losing our touch the other. There was something lacking in the friendship in the first place and not because of the third
Now you get my point... nothing bad in extension.. understand eachother is thesin key
My dear, even though friendship is one of the best gifts one could have, you must discern carefully who you decide to be your friend. You see two people being friends for so long, you want to join them as one more friend? Nah.
But I feel like that should not be a problem if the friendship was genuine in the first place.
Do you think there should be something that could ever change a genuine friendship in becoming the opposite? Since they were genuine from the start
A lot can change it but if they are genuine, they should never forget how it started and mend whatever comes up.
I'll say you just be on a friendly level with them, not hoping to be as close as they are with each other to them. Personally, I don't make friends easily and I think it's because I am very careful for who gets into my personal space as a friend.
Yeah that's important actually because at the end of the day,even if it's not about 3 being a crowd, even the only friend you have can be a snake in eagle's shadow.
The reason why we have people like that still remains mystery
It's a sad reality with how badly people have turned friendships to be like for people who wants to be in some.
Seriously speaking.. it's changing the mentality of people especially people who still confide in close friends even than a family
Yeah, there are people who feel more comfortable with friends than family.
It's not a bad idea if you know why you still want to be in such a friendship though but it's bad if you're just looking to be a friend without thinking of what comes with being a friend.
My sister, having friends is kind of complicated at times and that's why I'm just so glad that I was created with a permanent friend from heaven.
You don't know who really wanna be friends with you even after trying to discern
Haha permanent friend from Heaven is all I have and all I need like this. 😌
That's very true, people change and no doubt about that.
Whalicious you won't know that's a great testimony for me o, lol. And you can have that again now since you didn't come as a twin.
Change is constant but it shouldn't be so drastic when it comes to people you claim to care about once upon a time
I'm sure I will, I'll just trust God for the friendships He will bring to me. 🤲
Yeah, words left unspoken, disagreements unattended to, were the pillars to a drastic change, don't ignore those.
Yeahhh I get that and yes you will. I was initially talking about coming as a twin
Yeaahh that's true and they all bounce back on COMMUNICATION.
😂 it's the GIF for me
I think someone is finally seeing it from same angle with me. There shouldn't be problems about it if the friendship was genuine in the first place
