Developing friendships is part of the cycle of life. After being born into your family, you learn to make friends as you go to school. Your largest circle of friends is probably formed during your high school years. Things definitely change when you graduate from high school or college. At this stage, you are supposedly prepared for life in the “real world.” Immediately you have no choice but to narrowly shift your focus from the many acquaintances you had in…
