Did you know that people without friends are more likely to die an early death? It’s true. Just ask science. The following types of friends are just what you need.
A Loyal(忠诚的) Best Friend
Everyone needs a loyal best friend who will support them no matter what happens . This is the kind of friend who knows all of your deepest and darkest secrets, but still loves you all the same.
An Adventurous Friend
We live in a big world where there are so many places to see, people to meet, and experiences to be had. We all need an adventurous friend who will pull us out of our shells and introduce us to new ideas, cultures and activities.
A Wise
MentorIf you have someone smart, inspiring (启发灵感的) and admirable (令人敬佩的) in your life, you’re extremely lucky. He’s simply someone who’s a few steps ahead (在…之前) of you in life and has enough wisdom and patience to guide you in the right direction. Being around such a person will challenge us to better ourselves every day.
A Friendly Neighbor
These days, a lot of people don’t know their own neighbors. It’s a shame, because some neighbors can be the nicest and most helpful people ever. If you’re on a vacation, and you suddenly realize that you forgot to lock the front door, you can call up your trusty neighbor and ask them to lock it for you.
With those friends in your life, you’re sure to live a long and happy life!
