  8. CHORUS BRIDGE: • No one could ever me, no one could ever see me • Seems you're the who knows what it's like to be me • Someone to the day with, make it through all the rest with • Someone I'll always with • (know only one face laugh )

  12. Negative quotes • "A woman can become a man's friend only in the following stages - first an acquantance, next a mistress, and only then a friend." - Anton Chekhov • "Men kick friendship around like a football and it doesn't seem to crack. Women treat it like glass and it falls to pieces"-Anne Lindbergh - Sent in by Sandy Macbeth

  13. "A friend in power is a friend lost" - Henry Adams, sent by Troy Edwards

  14. Religious quotes • "Friends always show their love. What are brothers for if not to share troubles?"- Proverbs 17:17 • "Some friendships do not last, but some friends are more loyal than brothers."- Proverbs 18:24 • "Forsake not an old friend; for the new is not comparable to him: a new friend is as new wine; when it is old, thou shall drink it with pleasure."- Sirach 9:10

  16. Men v.s.women friendship • "The difference between men friends and women friends is that men tend to do things together, women tend to just be together."-Art Jahnke

  17. In childhood girls talk about school, clothes, and their wishes and needs. • Boys on the other hand talk about sports, motors, and locations (Fehr, Beverley 1996, p. 199). Men have a tendency to avoid a high degree of intimacy with each other, but do however acknowledge intimacy and friendship in the form of joking and laughter.

  18. Women talk about themselves, their feelings, doubts, fears, love relationships, families, homes, and problems. • Men talk about competition and aggression, and things they have seen or heard. They discuss work, sports, politics, social issues, money, business, cars, weather, and traffic (Monsour, p. 147) "Men's friendships are often built around shared activities attending a ball game, playing cards, working on a project at the office." (Devito, p. 371)

  19. Woman friendship • "Friendship is not possible between two women one of whom is very well dressed."-Laurie Colwin

  20. Girls • feel the strongest when leaned on. • the benefit of having someone to talk to is the backbone to maintaining a close relationship "Communication, in all its forms and functions, seems much a much more important dimension of women's friendships." (Devito, p. 371)

  21. The nurturing aspect of a woman is brought through the relationship • Their senses of nurturing follow most of the rules of friendship just by being there and talking with their friends, which helps maintain a strong relationship (Argyle, P. 120).

  22. "Women honor friendship and love their friends; two women can be seen as open, honest, warm, and helpful to each other as the best blood or love relations; • most women are far more empathetic and emotionally intimate with their casual friends, and that is what makes them close friends." (Pogrebin, p. 280)

  23. Men friendship

  24. Men storytelling sharing them with others laughing about them amongst each other (Monsour, p. 144). "The one thing men do not trade with their buddies is the truth about them," (Rubin, p. 244).

  25. men resist comforting their male friends simply because they are too accustomed to competing with them (Monsour, p. 145). Telling the truth would mean admitting some loss, and no man can afford to reveal his losses to the competitor (another man).

  26. By late adolescence the male emotions are well defended. The man can allow another man to call a man a fat ass, and not be offended. "If a slightly overweight friend is hurting, he takes it "like a man"; he suffers in silence (Fehr, p. 187).
