Without doubt, making friends is an important thing in our life. Some people think making new friends is more important than keep old friends, while other do not. Both sides may have their own reasons to support their views. If I had to choose one, I would say that keeping old friends is better than making new friends. There are several reasons and example as follows.
First of all, making new friends is not easy. If I want to make a new friend, I have to spend many times with new person which make them feel friends because, at first, when we meet someone we do not know anything about she or he. Therefore, we have to spend time with new person to recognize the relationship. Besides, If you spend time to making new friends, you will be ruin the relationship with your old friends. In my experience, when I was in freshman, all my friends who graduated the high school with me have to make new friends because they were going to each other universities. Therefore, we cannot meet like when we were in high school, because all of us spend more time with new friends.
Secondly, old friends knew about me specific, it means if I loosing them they can tall about my secret to anyone. Having an old friend is good thing when I maintain good relationship with her like she know my prefer and give me the birthday present which I want. However, breaking the relationship with old friends can ruin our life. We can got an emotional problem and they can talking to others about my secrets or problems. For example, one of my friends ruin the relationship with her friend, after that she always spits the bad words about her friends. It seems not good because she spits the bad words in her mouths but I know that she is sorrowful in her mind.
To sum up, making new friends can be estranged with old friends, moreover, in my experience ruin the relationship with old friends can be happened bad result, like I have mentioned above. These are the reasons why I prefer to keep my old friends than making new friends. |
