How Do You Define Friendship? Virtual & Physical

I've got very few friends from far distance and near combined, some I've never seen them physically before, some we rarely meet and others we meet frequently.


)

Friendship for me isn't based off how many times we see each other, the most important is the connectivity. We might not be talking to each other for months and get to do it better whenever we get to reach each other on phone or physical meetings, that's how me and most of my guys do.

Unfortunately we get to meet fewer times now because of how life has separated us around the globe, the few times we do meet is probably during festive seasons when everyone comes back home to celebrate with family or on special occasions that unites us together.

Almost all my friends we get to interact online both the ones I've seen and the ones I haven't. So the most usual way I get to talk and share ideas with my friends is online. In my new jurisdiction, I've stayed over a year and haven't been able to make lasting friends. The thing there is that I hardly go out so mingling with people is usually the hardest for me to do, the highest I can do is to relate lightly neighbors time to time.

Friendship for me both virtual and physical is the same, if we can't be profitable to each other then we might not be able to nurture our friendship for long. I want to be there when they need me just as I would love them to be there when I need them also. This doesn't have to be materialistic, it can be sharing of ideas and creating lasting solutions to simple life problems together. I don't define friendship based off how many times we communicate all the time, I think this is not usually for the guys.

The guys will always be up and doing to see how to make ends meet, they rarely have time to seat and be gisting for too many hours, we easily get bored and want to go back and continue work! I've had people that contributed greatly to my life that I haven't seen them before, very few, I think just one and many others that we've shared positive connections with them virtually as well. I'm thankful for the kind of friends I've got, we all understand each other and none among my guys have come to complain he isn't getting enough time or attention from any of us so that we will not end up calling him gay!

Boys will sacrifice for boys, boys will sacrifice for their friends but not necessarily that they've got to meet all the time first. This is just applicable to friends that cherish themselves and the relationship between themselves not some whack tigers in sheep clothing out there. I love to make sacrifices for my friends and I don't see myself limiting that to only the ones I use to see face to face. If you're in the circle, you in it for real, the same love will go round.

I've got few friends and forever grateful that I met them. Thanks for reading through my entry for Hive learners week 191 episode 1, see you on the next one!

Thank you 💙

The two kinds of friendship is good. It all boils down to the people involved.

Me too, I hardly go out and that's what resulted to having more of virtual friends.

Yeah.. people are really busy trying to make ends meet, it's difficult for some people out there, we can't always be out there when the public needs us but our hearts are with everyone out there including our love ones ..
Thanks for stopping by

That’s a great one from you. Friendship is all about connection and not necessarily how long or how much you’ve talked. Sometimes, we all have our busy schedules and won’t have time for the every day chitchat but the connection is what will keep us going.

The few physical friends I have, we don't even talk all the time. However, the connection is still there because that is what matters.

What matters is the connection, we can be talking everyday, having boring conversations and yet not connected!

One thing I have had issues with is the fact that some of my friends get angry over the fact we don't communicate much often

Maybe life isn't the same for them as it is with you. If that be the reason for their anger issues about you then they need to step up.

Genuine friendship connects either physically or virtually and still achieve nice goals together. It also make sense that friends shouldn't be one sided , but each party offering assistance where needed

Very well @nkemakonam89
I think that's the most important, we should be able to turn up for each other when we need each other, that's the real love and what true friendship looks like
