Friendships change over the years; we know that many people will go in and out of our lives over time. There are many reasons friendships end so making one last a lifetime is harder than it sounds. If you manage to do that, you’ll be awarded many perks that only long-lasting friendships can offer. Let’s see what they are.

Trust

When you know someone your whole life, you can trust them to be your support and help you when things get rough. Having at least one person you know you can count on can mean a world in a difficult situation.

Things Haven’t Changed… That Much

As we grow up, life puts us through many challenges. There’s something so comforting in knowing that your childhood friend will be there for you the same way they did when you were younger. Priceless!

Honesty

Most of the people you’ve just met won’t be 100% honest with their views and feelings. But that’s not a problem when you have a special someone who will always tell you the truth, no matter how harsh it may sound.

Memories

Naturally, memories pile up as the years go by. Nothing is more fun than remembering some special moments from the distant past with a person who’s been your friend all along.

You Can Be Your Real Self

And know that your friend loves you for it. Nobody can hide their real character for years and decades, so if you have a long-lasting friendship, you can guarantee there’s someone who loves you for who you are.
