Friendship is based on trust and mutual respect for each other

Friendship is based on trust and mutual respect for each other. It takes a long time to know one another but as time goes by, our trust gets cemented. This doesn't mean that everything will always go well, because our suspicion and our easily listening to the gossip of others might affect our friendship. Thus, in my opinion, when there is misunderstanding, instead of listening to rumors, we should meet and settle it through the sincerity in our hearts. Otherwise our friendship may simply fall apart. Therefore, listening to advice has a lot of merit, but following gossip and rumors will destroy what we have worked many years for in just a few minutes. So, let our wisdom and experience play the central role in keeping our friendships even longer.
