5 Important Friendships You Need to Have in Your Life

Last Updated on January 7, 2021

Who will tag you in memes all day long? Who will listen to your nonsense? Who will say yes to every silly plan you think of? One who has no friends has nothing at all. Friendships are an essential part of a healthy and happy life in all times and ages.

We all need that BFF relationship, where you can express yourself freely, reveal your deepest darkest secrets, laugh, cry, and stuff your face, all within the comfort a
judgment-free zone.

But just because not all of our relationships can meet this standard, it doesn’t mean they are not true friendships. It simply means that the different friends in our lives are perfect matches of different sides of ourselves. And all of those aspects should be appreciated and cherished.

Did you know that people without friends are more likely to experience an early death?
To boost your chances of enjoying a long and happy life, having a bunch of copy-paste buddies won’t do the trick.

You need a diverse entourage that will stick with you through better and worse.

5 Important Friendships You Need to Have in Your Life

#1 – The Funny Friend

If you have one, you would have already identified this person in your mind as we speak. The one who can always make you laugh until you cry, no matter how bad you’re feeling or how difficult is your life. I consider myself very lucky have a couple of these friends, who have lightning speed wit that can take my breath away and make life a bit easier.

We all know that the funny friend is not really a person you reveal sensitive secrets to. They’re more the person you can turn to when you need an instant lift. In other words, funny friends are the coffee (or wine) of the friendship world.

#2 – The Life Expert Friend
