May we live without friends?!!

May we live without friends?!!

When Aristotle was asked about a specific definition of friendship, he said: "It is one spirit that applies to two bodies without which life is impossible and that all the causes of happiness”.

I cannot imagine this life without my close friends. We are all in need of a friend who we can let on, complain to and share our joys and sorrows with. Most people resort to a friend to reveal what they have of sadness or joy. The true friend is the one who accepts your excuses, forgives you, advises you if he sees you have an error. He also encourages you if you succeed and wishes you good and helps you to do good work.

Who would be available for these things if not the friend?!!!

Today, the situation is more complex. According to studies and research conducted by the American newspaper, it reported that 25% of Americans do not even have one friend. What a terrible thing!! I can’t imagine that.

Friendship became complicated as life is no longer easy and simple, also because of this materialistic age we live. As a result, the concepts of friendship are changing and its values are disappearing. So nowadays, it is not easy to earn a sincere friend who stands beside you, learns from and learns from you, shares your life. The friendship has become a rare coin, such as health, it only feels true value when you lose it.

But can people live without friends in this age?!!

Of course not. But Why? We can say it as it is not natural that a person lives in retirement from people. The retirement from people is contrary to the innate behavior of human. It is not normal to retire from his human counterparts. One must approve the good people, and if there are only bad people, it must be with a person without being with them in their wrong positions.

So the clearest answer to the last question is “No, none can live without any friend”.

Is it possible that marital life is a substitute for friendship?

Some may oppose my past answer saying that the marital life or the daily hard work, for example, may make us mistakenly think we do not need friends. They think the conditions and responsibilities that imposed by the marital life or the daily hard work are from the reasons for this thinking.

But this materialistic age has many modern requirements, complex challenges. So we have to think strongly about the importance of friendship as a brotherhood. The greater the stress, the more the human need for the presence of friends. It is an innate need in everyone, whatever its circumstances.

What are the reasons that make one thinking to be alone without friends?

We can summarize these reasons in the hard shocks we face in our lives. Not making new friends, or failing old ones increases frustration and less confidence. This may lead to depression after a person thinks he has a flaw. It is certain that everyone forms friendships because of common interests. So we can deduce, the reason for the flaw in your friendship is that you didn't find anyone to share and share your interests.

Finally, I would say if you gain a true friend who has mentioned characteristics, you should stick to him. We all know that a true friend is a brother who did not give birth to the mother
