Friendship and modularity
How friendships can be described in discrete steps.
While wondering about why there are flavors in friendships, I got to an understanding that friendship is made of few components. Instead of treating these in a state of flux, we can treat them modular. This could make our life a lot easier. Because, the we can't be everything for everyone (or some people).
This concept builds on the understanding that we believe in a good social circle with various people sharing mutual interests in certain areas.
# | Element | Description |
1. | Interests | Studying, working, games |
2. | Closeness | Acquaintance, school friend or best friend |
3. | Importance factor | How much important are they for survival and our responsibility |
4. | Travel distance | How much far are they? Same neighborhood/city/country |
5. | Specialty | The special thing that makes them standout for us
|
An understanding of these elements helps us differentiate and modularize. This helps in prioritizing the events where we need to be, stay less drained and if possible a bit happy.
