- purpose of friendship
I do wonder about #5: growth. I don't necessarily think all friendships permit growth. What about those friends who aren't interested in personal growth or insight - perhaps they just want to play poker to get manicures together? Ideally, the goal of friendship is growth - individual and collective - but realistically the wrong combo of friends could drag you right down. To the depths.
