No one wants to make friends with those who will betray them.No matter whether you are married or not， no matter where you live and work， your friends are your friends. It is not based on bloodline. It relies on your intention. To you， some friends are fun-loving， some give encouragement， some offer knowledge， and others help you to find your own identity. Before your friends， you may act as a supervisor， a learned brother， a lovely child， a gentleman or a playmate. In a word， friendship helps you to be a full person.
