Ok, if I remember correctly, the question was "what's the definition of friendship?", right? Why should friendship need a definition? Is it not the unsaid agreement of two people to enjoy each other's company? There should be no legality to it, it is a welcomed thing by both people (usually) and it takes many forms. Is this question regarding ex-lovers who want to be "just friends"? This is somewhat more of a tricky situation, as one person will always want to be more than just friends. It's an instictual aspect of humans to want something they can't have, especially if they have had it before. It then becomes some of the resposibility of the person that does not want more to decide if they are hurting the other person more than helping them. Are you refering to someone that you think is asking more from the friendship than you feel like giving? There should not be any requirments to being someone's friend. If they need something, and you are willing to give them that something, then all is well. If you are not willing to give it to them, then they should understand and accept the fact that they are asking too much. What this all leads to is that friendship is relative. Each person has their own thoughts and feelings about what it is and everyone is entitled to believe what they allready believe. This neither makes everyone right, nor everyone wrong, just different. Differences make the world go 'round, after all. The views expressed above are the sole property of
