discuss What keep friendships strong over decades?

[Reelz]

Friendships can thrive for decades if the people involved consistently support each other with effort and empathy. Regular phone calls and visits enable people to sustain contact and grow friendship. Attending each other's important events strengthen relationships because they support one another.

I do have a very close friend but the distance between us has not weakened my friendships since we keep close contact and jointly participate in online activities. Distance is no barrier because we call on video and even play games online. Friendships thrive because people communicate regularly about their lives and it keeps emotions alive.

I have three things that I consider are crucial to maintain friendships:

1. Trust in all your friends, never backstab them and never talk behind their backs.
2. Be original. never manipulate yourself to be in the good books of anyone.
3. Money can make or break relationships. So be true in all matters than involve a financial transaction.

You are right. Communication is important even when friends live far away from each other. A group chat can make the relationship stronger. I belong to a few WhatsApp groups to connect with different categories of people that are important to me. It enables us share updates and support one another. There is a group of my old school mates which organises reunion from time to time.
