Friendship will not last.' Do you agree with this statement? Write a short response of 100-150 words, bearing in mind that you should write in standard English.
I do not agree with this statement because as we meet new friends, it will slowly become our best friends that we will not forget forever. And whatever we do, we will always help one another and always be there for them if they have problems that have face. Friendship will last forever as long as we are close to the friends around us and always show care, concern and compassion to them and we can create joy to them as well.
I do not agree with this statement because sometimes we might have a "cold war" in terms of quarelling and also sort of "fighting".Yes,i do believe that most of us breaks friendship,but after a while,they tend to forgive each other.Well,we should learn to forgive and forget.Even though our friend did something wrong to us,we should not break friendship.
Because,everyone make mistakes.No one is perfect in this world.Sometimes,friendship do not last because of some reasons that are serious.Thus,they tend to break friendship as some of them can't take it anymore. So,in order for us not to break friendship,we should show care,concern and compassion for each other.
People often mistaken by the idea that only lovers can last forever, but they are wrong! Friendship is the only exit that lasts forever, you see, if you had a trif with your friend, at least it can foster stronger relationship but for couples, it could end up in divorce.
At least when you are with your friend, you tend to be more open with him/her, a friend can help you break through difficulty while your lover can't like for girls, they can't expect to go window shopping alone, thus, they will need more friends, as the metaphor says, "the more the marrier", why not?
Friendship does live forever, it's how you see it, many tend to say that they can't like what delypriest says, "I do not agree with this statement because as we meet new friends, it will slowly become our best friends that we will not forget forever.", I do agree with his/hers statement, but I strongly stand my view that even if there is others that stand in the line, the friendship will still be there, it's like painting butter on top of the sandwich, like my friends, I still remember how we actually had fun and now we still meet each other even when we are not in the same school.
As for fights, after each trif, the friendship will be much stronger after one wave than one, but I do agree that if you learn to retreat a step, that would be the best.
no.I do not agree.WE often have new firend and if we don't we will just to stick to each other. If the statement is true why are we still stick to each other we should have fight to therest of our life
I agree with that statement as people argue for such a simple problem.There are some example which cause friendship to be spolt and this are when friends do not admit their mistake and friend betray their friends for more and more money.And when you make nwe friends,it need to take some time for the friendship to last.So I advised you try to say sorry to your friends if you are in wrong or admit your mistake when you done something wrong.Hope your friendship is everlasting.
No i do not agree with this statment because if that statment were to be true, then this world would not have peace since country depends on each other to survive. If friendship do not last, then this world will be full of chaos, war, riot and disorder which can cause many life to be lost.
Also it can be use in our daily life because if we were to have a short friendship, everybody will start fighting with each other over the slightest matter which also can cause chaos within the school and the community.
If friendship do not last long, then it would be better if we did not even became friends as when we break the friendship, it will usually cause saddness to one or even both party.
Friends should always look out for each other and also help them whenever they are in need whether it is about family,friends or studies.
I may have to agree and disagree with the statement.First of all friendship can last long if we treasure each other well and treat them as if they are one that you do not want to bear apart with. To have a long lasting friendship,we must understand each other well.But sometime,friendship can turn sour if we do not treasure each other well and fight within each other all the time.Last of all,we must show care,concern and compassion to the one around us.
This is a difficult issue to stay rooted in one view. Hence, I'll just write what I think from both views.
Firstly, I do think friendship will last. But only if it is almost entirely platonic, which is really important because should guys had friends who are girls, should they be together too long, they would be more than friends. Other than that, I think that friendship will definitely last among friends required you don't go out with them too frequently, too long.
And sadly, I also have to agree that friendship will have to come to an end. I once heard someone say "Good things will come to an end sooner or later". I'm sorry, but actually it is true. Good things do come to an end. Not any sooner, probably later. This is why you should cherish who you have now, because you never know when your so-called best friend may turn into your next most conniving nemesis.
But all in all, it's always up to you to decide what you feel friendship should be, that is;
Will it last forever? or Will the ship sink and you'll be on your own boat?
As for me, I just cannot bear to stay on one side of the argument. I am always open to different views.
P.S: When I said "if guys had friends who are girls" I did not mean a the guy-girl (heterosexual) relationship. I meant a platonic relationship between a guy and a girl.
Sometime this year, a fought broke out with me and my friends. I thought they were my perfect friends for we did good things to one another and the ship of friendship we built was the strongest one i had ever known in my life but i was wrong. We were not perfect friends. The fought was totally ridiculous and definately unreasonable.
The fought was clearly caused by me because i had to be the "hero" of an anonymous somebody's life.That anonymous person happened to be the person my friends hated most.I felt the person's loneliness and i just could not stand looking at somebody miserable.So, i became friends with that person. I trusted my friends and told them that i am in good terms with their enemy. I thought they would understand because i trusted them to understand me but they did not.
Unfortunately, i was in bad terms with them.The next day, they were silent to me.At first, i did not know why they did not talk to me until evening when we chatted on the Windows Messenger ( MSN ). They told me that i had betrayed them. Did i betrayed them? Did i? I did not know. An apolody was not even a cure towards the "betrayal". Then i said, " is this true friends?"
Well, this is the end of the story. So, i agree with the statement but, it is possible to have a friendship that will last. All you have to do is find your true friend. What is a true friend? Well, a true friend will always give you chances and will never disapprove your apology. They will always understand and know the reason why you had done something they expected you not to do and they can take the reason. A true friend does not judge you by looks, friends, popularity or personality they will always understand your decision and leave you with the decision you had made for they know that it is not them that has to tell you what you want to do because that would make them controlling your life and you will be much more tight in schedules because, once a friend gets hold of controlling your life, they will make you something like a slave but not as serious as what slaves goes through.True friends will NEVER do that.
One of teh examples i have is my friend from kindergarten. We are still best of friends even when we went to seperate secondary schools.We never fight but we always connect.So, connect more often with your friends.Who knows one day, they know every single thing about you and they will be your true friends. ^^!
This question is hard for me to say.Actually i agree with both that friendship will last and not.
Friendship will last if you make new friends and you must not have problem with him or her.Sometimes our friends are sensitive,we must take care their feelings to prevent any misunderstanding problem and fight.We must respect them as they respect us.
Sometimes it will not last.For example,my best friend and i are close.Year by year or day by day,we will find out what is their attitude truly.Before that, it is positive but more and more we know them,we will start to stay away from him or her.
So my conclusion is that friendship will last long if we do the right thing on the right time.
i dun really think that friendship last because if a friendship really last then i would not have such a bad friendship with my friend. And because of this little small thing that makes our friendship so bad, and it means that our friendship is very fertile that anything can make or break our friendship. But our friendship should not be like this it should be very good and not easily breakable. But now in another thought i think that friendship last because i had a very great friend now that i think we trust each other very much so i think our friendships will be good and not so fertlie like the one before.
I do not really agree but also agree too. As i have friends that i quarrell with most of the times and at that time, i will think friendship does not last. But its like after a while when we are friends once again, we just suddenly became very good friends. I do not know that i should say i agree or i don't agree. Anyway, i will treasure every single friendship with my friends and i hope all our friendships do last!
I think that friendship is the most important things in this world,without friendship,the will be no success.As friends,we intend to help each other,or they won't call it friend but enemy.Freindship may not last forever,but as time goes by,we will meet new friends,but we may not forget our old friends as,we have unforgettable memories.At this piont of time,cherish our friends so as to have an unforgettable memories.
I do not agree with the statement. Sometime in friendship we will quarell over something that is small or maybe big. It all depends. Sometime we will be unhappy over some reason and do not want to tell he/she, hence we try to shunn away from them. By this, friendship will be torn apart.
In friendship we have to forgive one another or else the friendship will be always sore and never be happy. Everyone in this world make mistake hence, we are not perfect.
Firstly, why would people name someone as their 'best friend'? It could probably be because they share the same interest, or maybe they label them for the sake of doing.
Like what Hannan said, 'Good things come to an end'.
You might probably be get well hit off with this particular friend whom you call him/her 'best friend'. Yes, and you could have shared precious memories with each other.
But, not any sooner, people would tend to get sick of sticking to only a friend - they might probably prefer a wider network connection with the other friends. Well, it might happen to you, and it may not.
But in all, it's up to you to decide what you feel friendship should be. Only you have the power to befriend with him/her, or not.
So as to conclude, there would be no particular answer, if you're looking on a wider point-of-view towards this question. But as for me, I think friendships do not last =D
I do not agree with the statement.let me using myself as an example.In primary school i have a best friend,now i still remember her face and her kindness toward me.In secondary school which now i have 4 best friends,we sometimes will quarrel.But after a while we will be friend again cause we have been together so long,we can't afford to loss each other.
I do not agree and also agree.As some friendship can last long and some cannot.I think that those friendship that can last long is people who always shows care and concern to their friends,help them whenever they need them,by this way,i think friendship can really last long.I also think that those friendship cannot last long,is those people who don't show care and concern to their friends,don't help them when they need them and always saying bad things behide them and don't care how they feel. So,how i think that friendship can last long is that you show care,concern and compassion to your friends and always be honest to your friends.
I do not agree with the statement because if i know a friend for a long time,we will understand our friend better. We have to give way to each other so that we will not get into misunderstanding. In order to prolong our friendship, we should get to know their family members. Sometimes,we do quarrel among each other but we should learn to forgive and forget after we have clear our misunderstanding. We should show them that we care for them and to let them know that we will be right beside you helping you whenever they need help.
I dont believe friendship last because i quarrel with my friends often and even over a small matter. They tend to take things for granted. i do hates my friends sometimes because they dont really care for other people's feelings.. well, i dont believe that friendship last because i never experience it before.. with that, i hope i can find my true friend out there..
Friendship does last. To me, a friendship is like burning flames. Once we get separated, or we quarel and it lasts over a long time, the flames dies off.
Even is we really mend this friendship, things will not be the same. Becuase, there is a scar in this friendship, and unless this person means so much to us, can we change ourselves for this person? Frienship isn't love.
Nothing can remain the same forever, people change with the surroundings. Friendship do turn sour will left in the air. How many of us can ensure that the sparks and flames in the friendship doesn't dies off? The more you know a person, the harder it isn to get along.
Trust is needed to keep a friendship going, but can you trust a person that have changesd abit? Can you trust a friendship that is on- off? We keep that friendship for the sake of keeping it.
There's always two sides of a coin.. and in the same way I don't think there's a definite answer to this question... Can friendship last? Rather... will you make the effort to ensure your friendship last? Or on the other hand, will your friends make the effort to ensure your friendship with them lasts? Sometimes, friendship is just a one - sided relationship. Almost like an unrequited love. You may try so hard to salvage a friendship, one that's made with such child like fragility. That you know, you're aware, that it just takes a snap of a finger, for it to shatter. That you know, you're best without. Why do you try to save something that cannot be saved? Or on the other hand, you give up. You don't bother treasuring a friendship, while your friend is like the former, clinging on to what doesn't want to be saved. Why don't you try? Is friendship something so easily discarded, so meaningless? I've been in both situations, and to me friendship can never last, not really. Because reality seems to be like that. But maybe, somewhere out there, there are friendships that last. Friendships that's almost like a dream. An Elysium. Maybe...just maybe... we just have to try...
I live for the beauty of life and the joy of love.
I believe in God and his love for mankind.
I have faith that one day, i'll be able to see the rainbow after the rain...
