If it is customary to associate men's friendship with something noble, reliable and strong, then female friendship as such is not generally accepted by many. Moreover, some men and even women do not believe in the very possibility of it.
Nevertheless, it still exists, although this is far from being the concept by which we are accustomed to imply friendship. Anyone will say that a friend is not the same as a friend, and will be right. After all, for example, the words "to make friends" and "make friends" also have different meanings: the first is temporary, and the second is permanent. So a friend - usually for a while, and a friend - for life.
But one who is sure that a girl, a woman can not be a friend, is also mistaken. Maybe even very true. Although, of course, not everyone is, the world around us is too stern and complex, there are too many temptations, too unstable and emotional women nature. What does not affect her, what does not change the mood, attitude! But especially the recent strong influence on everything and everyone is provided by money. The whole world is fascinated by the constant pursuit of financial well-being, a worthy financial situation. And this is the strongest predilection, which can overcome only a few. An unrestrained craving for material goods divorced not one thousand families, destroyed not one ten thousand relations. How independent is women's friendship and financial status?
How much can an independent woman be? Really, really from anything and from no one independent? To some extent, of course, can, if she has a high-paying job, a personal car, her own house or apartment. But these are just things that will not talk, they will not calm down, they will not advise. And life is unpredictable and sometimes stings mercilessly, substituting footsteps and throwing surprises, puts before an unequal choice. And so it is necessary that there was someone nearby who would listen and understand, sympathize and encourage, help and prompt! Husband? He will not always understand and understand women's experiences, he is still a man. Mama? You will not tell her everything, you will not want to upset her, and she can live too far to reach out and cry on her shoulder. Here in such moments and you understand that women's friendship - just what you need.
She is the strongest, perhaps, when girl friends have grown up together, have known each other since childhood. Such friendship, as a rule, nothing is scary - no difference in financial position, or dividing distances. How wonderful, if life gave you a real friend who knows you, like herself! A friend who can be spoken out, fearing nothing, not picking up words, crying, sharing, knowing that they will listen to you, correctly understand, give advice and support. It is a pity that not everyone is so lucky ...
After all, how much more often it is much more offensive and trivial: happiness destroys relations, material goods bring to the top, with which one can not see the less successful friend of childhood. Or vice versa - yesterday's friend forgot about you, money, long trips, expensive things whirled his head, took him and closed in a golden cage. And even in case of emergency, not everyone will be able to ask for financial assistance from a friend. Just like not everyone is ready to help.
In addition, if the fate of divorcing girlfriends in different aspects of prosperity, arose test of envy and condescension, too, can not withstand all. One pride does not allow to reconcile, that the girlfriend prospers and can afford everything, and she at this time hardly fits in the salary. The other, on the contrary, likes to be a benefactor and shower friends with gifts, and it's good if these friends do not emanate envy.
But the most unsightly picture usually occurs with the successful marriage of one girlfriend and the status of a single mother another. How much generosity, love and kindness, a true friendly feeling is required for a woman not to envy, not to compare her virtues and the shortcomings of a lucky girlfriend! As life shows, not a financial situation, but this difference is one of the main culprits of the collapse of friendly relations between women. All you can forgive a friend, with everything to accept, except her family happiness.
So there is it, female friendship, there is, of course. Also happens gentle, warm, kind, but thus thin, fragile, dependent.
