We have often sought answers to these questions, yet we have never come up with an enough answer.
It is because friendship....is an amalgamation of of beautiful and complex feelings, which may not often be described in words.
True friendships are perhaps the only relations that survive the fade of time and remain permanence.
A special mixture of affection, loyalty, love, respect, trust and loads of fun is perhaps what describes the true meaning of friendship.
Similar interests, respects and firm bonds or others are what friends share usually. And they are just general traits and peculiarities of friendship. To experience what is friendship, one must have true friendship, which are so uncommon treasures. A person who has found faithful friends has found priceless treasure.
When two people share a strong bond with mutual understanding, respect and affection, it is a start of a foundation of a everlasting friendship. The bond just gets stronger with time; the trust between the two people grows and so does the attachment.
To me, the aim of friendship is to make life's burden lighter not heavier for our friends. Being friends means being there for each other at all times, whether it's good or bad. A friend needs to be very understanding and give each other the benefit of the doubt. Ideally the meaning of friendship is sharing unconditional love for each other. However this is not an ideal world; therefore some form of expectations are allowed, but that has a limit too.
Summing up, human can't survive this world that comprises crucifixion and so on without people depending on each other.
