Despite the fact that old friends can be understanding ,we may have some problems of old friends .For example : they can be toxic for us .They wound and affect us in many ways like in our heath , in our mind ,etc. 
Another example of it is that they introduce  in wrong path. Maybe they begin to have problems with drugs or alcohol. Maybe they are hanging out with the wrong crowd.
Another example is to be jealousy is the biggest obstacle to a successful and blissful friendship. When we start to become jealous of our friends, we start thinking of just ourselves. We doubt our capabilities and become sadistic. We should be happy for our friends. The competitive spirit must be healthy. It shouldn’t come in the way of the friendship. We all have our ebbs and highs. Dealing with them with friends by our side is better than going out about it alone. If you are confident about yourself, you wouldn’t be jealous of your friend’s accomplishments. Jealousy shouldn’t be allowed to creep in. The friendship is more important than the problem. Relationships must not be weighed against material possessions.

Shared experiences (like a travel,sport activities,etc )and feelings do the relationship more closer than before .Moreover, true friends are connected heart to heart , distance and time can´t them apart either new or old friends .So they may not always be there with us ,but they try to find the way to be there for us .For instance, in another culture like Asian´s people have not a lot of time because of studies and works so they try to not lose touch with their close friends and relatives .So they use social media sites like Facebook,What´s app , Twitter, Instagram ,Snap chat,etc.
 
As far as I concerned if I've learned anything about friendship, it's to hang in, stay connected, fight for them, and let them fight for you. We don't walk away, don't be distracted, don't be too busy or tired, don't take them for granted. Friends are part of the glue that holds life and faith together.

In conclusion friends are important in our life in spite of the fact they may bring us a lot of problems but they tried to understanding us .Although we are complicated ,they still love us .


 ,when we honestly ask ourselves which person in our lives mean the most to us, we often find that it is those who, instead of giving advice, solutions, or cures, have chosen rather to share our pain and touch our wounds with a warm and tender hand. The friend who can be silent with us in a moment of despair or confusion, who can stay with us in an hour of grief and bereavement, who can tolerate not knowing, not curing, not healing and face with us the reality of our powerlessness, that is a friend who cares .
