Forever Friends?




     Recently i read an extremely interesting article about life. An article regarding friendship"Fickle Friends ' written by Kirsten Weir that told us about the ugly truth of relationship called friendship.Sometimes we never knew that our friend who would support us and lend their ear or hand when we are in need of those , would talk behind our back or maybe what we called backstabbing.That are few examples of Fickle Friends - Frenemies, someone who we cant leave and in the same time , someone who have the potential of bringing negativity into our life.

   I would say i am very interested in this article is because it is related to my life. My childhood , my highschool life and even now.What i had experienced was well explained in this article.When i was in highschool , i transferred to many schools all around the state , rural areas and in suburbs.I met different kind of people and i have many kind of friends.Truth to be told , 80% of them were frenemies.The one who acted good infront of me and later on they disguised themselves and started rumours about me.They were both my friends and my rival . Have you ever experience this before ?

 After reading this article , i have gained many knowledge about this particular thing , and no I know the reason why i was so depressed when i'm in my highschool. It was because of my fickle friends as what the author stated , this frenemies can bring negative effects on our physical and mental well -being and higher the risk of depression.This have been confirmed by  respective researchers.

 From my point of view , this article is the reality of our life where we have to be careful in selecting our friends because they will have big impact on our life.Furthermore,we also should not easily trust other people eventhough they seem to appear good with us because they might be our frenemies. Who knows ?
