In life, we inevitably meet all kinds of people, some of whom are only brief intersections, and some of whom become close friends. So, are general friends friends? It's a worthwhile question.
First of all, we need to be clear about what a general acquaintance is. Generic acquaintances refer to people with whom we have briefly intersected, who may just stay in our lives for a while and then leave. These people may just be passers-by we meet occasionally, or they may be short-lived companions such as colleagues and classmates.
People have different opinions about whether a casual friend is a friend. Some people believe that as long as two people have common topics and interests, they can become friends. Others, on the other hand, believe that only those who have spent a lot of time together, know and support each other can be called friends.
In my opinion, a casual friend is not a true friend. Although they may share our interests and topics, they do not know our inner world, nor do they know our real needs and dilemmas. True friends take time and experience to cultivate, and we need to go through the ups and downs of life together, supporting and understanding each other.
Of course, this is not to say that general acquaintances are completely worthless. In fact, by interacting with the general friends, we can expand our social circle and learn more about people and things, which also helps us grow and develop. At the same time, we can also learn how to better communicate and communicate with people and improve our social skills.
In short, although friends in the general sense are not really friends, they are an indispensable part of our lives. Through our dealings with them, we can gain more experience and enlightenment, and make ourselves more mature and well-rounded.
