Some people think it’s better to choose friends who always have the same opinions as them. Other people believe it’s good to have friends who sometimes disagree with them. Discuss both these views and give own your opinion.

In this essay, I will discuss both views. However, I think having friends who sometimes disagree helps us learn and grow.
