No one of us can live without a fiend.Some people choose friends who are similar to themselves,while others choose friends who are different to themselves.
In my persomal opinion ,I prefer to choose a similar friend to my character for these following reasons.
First of all,I will find myself more comfortable and calm ,since my friend's thoughts and beliefs will be similar to mine,so Iam not going to find myself going into argument with my friend trying to pursude and make him agree with my points of view.In my personal opinion ,it's very difficult to make the others change their nature.So,if my friend was a calm person ,I couldn't change him to be the opposite because that what he is and he used to be.
In addition, Simliar friends usually find themselves more attached to each other,and they might even read each other's opinoin and thoughts.
In my experience, my old friend Sam ,who was so similar to myself, used to understand my feelings and read my thoughts before telling him what I was thinking.That what made him my best friend.
Not only that, but also with similar friends you can enjoy your favorties activities, since thay might be their favorites too. You are not going to see yourself bored from what your friend are enjoyed because it will be probably amused you for your similarity with your fiend in the character.
In conclusion,Having friends different from you has its advantages because may be you can learn something new from them ;however,this kind of frienship won't be a strong one because of the differences.I strongly perfer having similar friends because I feel we are going to have the same opinions,which makes us much closer to each other and enjoy doing things together. .
