I've always considered myself able to thrive without anyone until I attempted to take my own life twice on the same day. The longest and strongest friendship I have now began with me reaching out to him, being consistent and learning how to communicate. Communication is a great way to keep friendships. It doesn't just stop at beginning the friendship.

It's a wonderful read👏👏

Glad to know you're in a better place now. And yeah, communication keeps friendships alive. As it is often said, most relationship problems are just communication problems.

I'm very shameless about my friendship shots. We lose some, we win some🤗

This is an amazing article and I love it!

Friendship is beyond texting but building bonds and only those who're intentional would work how to keep them because 'Two are better than one.'

Thank you so much for putting this up!

I'm a new subscriber too and would keep reading your articles as much as I can!

I'm not good in making friends, even the few ones I have I tend to forget reaching out to them and if as my friend you are not reaching out also I believe you don't want the friendship as well.

But some of my friends said I give the arrogant vibes meanwhile it's not like that it's just that once I get busy I forget about every other things 😔

I'm not good at friendship shots but, the ones I received positive feedback from have been amazing. Now, I just have to be good friends to the ones I've got.
