Some people think It's better to choose friends who always have the same opinions as them. Other people believe it is good to have friends who sometimes disagree with them. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.
Nowadays, friendship plays an important role in our daily life. There has been controversy about whether finding like-minded
friends
is better than building friendships with different points of view as well as
contrasting personalities. From my perspective, I believe having friends
with the same thoughts is more beneficial and in some way, its merits outweigh its demerits.
On one
side of the argument, there are people who take the view that it is better to have buddies with different minds because they can change one
initial thoughts and make decisions from different angles which can widen one
's mind. For instance
, there is no such
person in today's universe who is always right hence
having someone with dissimilar characteristics can change your mind in another way. Additionally
, married couples with different opinions often may argue due to
having diverse aspects however
the conflict helps them to chase their goals by forgiving and understanding each other.
On the other hand
, having buddies with similar mindsets always can help individuals to reach their purpose in life without any difficulties. Meanwhile, like-minded friends
not only build strong relationships but also
long-lasting bonds. During tough situations, for example
, whenever someone is stressed at work or feels sad due to
a personal problem, this
kind of friendship is found helpful. Therefore
, one
will never get a perfect and happy life if someone is always against the way they choose.
In conclusion, despite the advantages of having unlike-minded partners, it seems to me that is
more important to have similar mindsets and opinions with friends
and this
is because the real definition of friendship and relationship is to support one
another, not to stress.Submitted by sh.sharifpour79 on
