4:Summary
Do you think there are "friends for life" Why or why not
Pre- reading
P30
Yes, I do.
I know some of my parents’ friends with my parents since primary school and they are still the best of friends. They all grew up in the same neighbourhood ans went to the same schools. Even if they do not see or talk to each other often now, they know each other so well and can rely on each other no matter what happens. I believe friends of this type will remain friends for life.
Would you turn to online communities for advice about maintaining friendships Why or why not
