When it comes to making friends, there are many 
different kinds of friendship that exist.Furthermore, it cannot be ignored that time spent with 
close friends is often more meaningful and enjoyable 
than time spent with a group of casual acquaintances.While people often 
disagree over which of these kinds of friendship is the 
most valuable, I believe that the benefits of having one 
or two really close friends to be much more beneficial.This means that close friends can 
always rely on finding help and support when they 
need it. On the other hand, having a large group of 
friends means that everyone has to divide their time 
and will not always be there for one other.Close friends, 
on the other hand, are able to discuss many things in 
greater depth, which helps to build a more meaningful 
bond between them.Another factor that must be taken into consideration 
is how likely a friendship is to last the test of 
time.Because the relationship between casual 
acquaintances is not as strong, these friendships are 
more likely to be lost if one person moves away or 
simply becomes too busy with something else.In large groups, where people do not know each other 
very well, the conversation often remains at the level 
of 'small talk', which many find boring.
