People have their own ideas about whether spending their time with one or two close friends is better than spending time with many friends or not. Some people may think that people might feel happy and be satisfied with having time with a small number of close friends. In my opinion, however, people will feel better when they are with a large number of friends because people can get many other friends' experiences of life and they might have opportunities to correct their problems communicating with each other being in a large group.
First, spending time with many friends provides the opportunities to listen about friends' various experiences. It is generally said each people has different faith and thinking toward his or her life and they have lived various lives. Therefore, being with many friends can allow people to hear others' history and thinking. For example, those who visited many countries can talk about their experiences in around the world, and also people who read a lot of books can let other people know the knowledges taking from many books. In this way, lots of friends can give people many things that they could not have.
Second, when it comes to knowing about people's faults in communication with a large group of friends, being with lots of friends is better than being one or two close friends. Some people may say that only close friends can correct their problems in communicating.communication. However, I think that it is hard for close friends to catch their friend's problem in any case. For instance, close friends can be used to their friend's fault and they could not catch friend's problem because they might have similar characteristic. Thus, I can say that spending time with lots of friends is better than spending time with one or two close friends.
To sum up, a number of friends can give many advantages to people in that they can get other's experiences and also can aware of their problem while they are communicating. All things considered, I can definitely say that spending time with a number of friends is better. |
