Friend is a person you know well and regard with affection and trust. Americans use the word
freely—that is, a friend may or may not be a person to whom there is a
great attachment. A friend might be a casual acquaintance or an intimate
companion.
It is common for Americans to have different "circles of friends" such
as church friends, work friends, or sports friends. A person may choose not
to involve members of different circles in the same activity.
Terms such as "office mate" and "tennis partner" indicate the segregation
of friends. People have different types of friends: one may
have many good friends and one best friend. "Best friends" are usually
two people of the same sex who have known each other for a long period of time.
2. Mobility and Friendship
C. Americans are geographically mobile and learn to develop friend ships easily and quickly. One out of every five Americanfamilies moves every year. People relocate because they begin new jobs,
attend distant colleges, get married, have children or simply want a change in their lives. Perhaps as a consequence of this, people form and
end friendships quickly.
D. Friendship was a term describing the behavior of cooperation and mutual support between two or more social entity. Enduring friendships
develop when individuals have similar interests and a common outlook
on life.
3. Instant Friendship
E. Characterizing instant friendships is the appearance of two people be-
coming close but, in reality, there is no strong bond between them. Brief
encounters do not always imply desire for further contact. Many people
frequently smile or say, "Have a nice day" or "See ya later," or even
10 extend an invitation as part of a cultural pattern of politeness. Such
expressions do not always suggest an offer of continued friendship.
4.Male -female relationship
In United states the relationship men and woman relative freely and develop a variety of relationship . Some of Male and female relationship just for sun,  male and female relationship without intention and another male female relationship with goals to married.Although the limitations of these relationships are
not always visible but they do exist.
5.Intercultural Frienships
One foreign student, after having lived in the United States for several years, said that the most important advice he could give to newcomers would be, "Don't be 10 passive when it comes to making friends with Americans. Begin conversations, extend invitations and make the first move."
A characteristic of American personal relations is the absence of fixed rules governing them. Therefore, a variety of friendships are possible in the United States. Even within a person's own culture, recognizing when a relationship has the potential to develop into a friendship is not always easy. When one is living in a foreign country, one is faced with unfamiliar friendship patterns which add to the challenge of initiating and main�taining meaningful relationships.]]> 2017-11-09 06:27:23 UTC https://padlet.com/saefulan93/miaaccarq5y7/wish/205142593 rikisaefulrahman https://padlet.com/saefulan93/miaaccarq5y7/wish/205144391 Human Group

A characteristic of American personal relations is the absence of fixed
rules governing them. Therefore, a variety of friendships are possible in
the United States. Even within a person's own culture, recognizing when

(English novelist, 1819-1880)
12. Traditionally the man took the initiative to invite a woman on a date.
This tradition is changing: it is becoming more common for a woman to
ask a man out. The invitation does not always imply a romantic interest,
but may be a way of "getting to know someone."
13. A changing custom that can create problems for both men and women
is the question of "who pays for whom?" on dates. Traditionally men
have paid the expenses on dates regardless of whether the couple's
relationship is intimate or merely friendly.
14. Gift-giving to friends is not marked by any fixed rules. Usually,
gift-giving occurs on special occasions such as birthdays, anniversaries,
weddings, and holidays.
15. Friends may not always seek help and advice from other friends. 
Occasionally professional guidance will be sought to resolve personal 
problems. Professional guidance offers an alternative for people who do 
not wish to "burden their friends" or for people who need expert advice.

Maka tidak menutup kemungkinan, mereka mempunyai lingkarang pertemanan yang baru dan cenderung merubah lingkaran pertemanan mereka beberapa kali.

C. Instant Friendship
Persahabatan instan adalah penampilan dua orang menjadi datang dekat tapi pada kenyataannya, tidak ada ikatan yang kuat antara mereka. Singkat pertemuan tidak selalu menyiratkan keinginan untuk kontak lebih lanjut.
