What is friendship between friends?

An emotion from a two-way (or interactive) relationship, that is, the feelings of both parties must be maintained together. Any unilateral goodwill or deviation cannot be called friendship.

Intimacy is the core component of friendship, and intimacy is also known as an important indicator to measure the degree of friendship.

Rogers (1985) summed up this intimate relationship from three aspects:

(1) Be able to reveal your thoughts, feelings and inner secrets to friends.

(2) Fully trust friends and be sure that their "confessions" will be respected by friends and will not be easily leaked or used against themselves.

(3) friendship relations limited to special evaluation, that is, limited to a few close friends or confidants. Everyone needs it.
