“One friend for life is a lot; two friends is a lot; three friends is hardly possible” (Henry Brooks Adams).

Bromance is a close platonic friendship, support and deep affection between two men. It takes effort to find the right person and maintain a strong friendship. As social studies show, a quarter of the US population is prone to "chronic loneliness", and half of the French feel acute alienation. The fact that people are hungry for communication and strong relationships is shown by the growth of social networks and dating clubs.

How to find a friend

Spend more time with the guys. Chat with friends of interest. Some men become friends with the husbands of their wives' girlfriends. It's easy to start conversations in the gym and computer rooms. If men are going to kick the ball under your window, you need to join the game. Common activities and goals bring together and do not mediate embarrassment when in communication you need to concentrate exclusively on individuals.

No need to look for your copy, a friend may have their own interests and hobbies. You should not consider only your peers as candidates for friends, a friend can be younger or older, of a different nationality or culture.

If you recently metpotential best friend, you need to know some simple ways to develop a relationship.

From dating to real bromance

Real bromance - what is it? How to understand that from ordinary acquaintances your relationship has moved to a new stage? Bromance is a concept that means having a reliable ally who can listen, understand and support. It is with this person that there is a willingness to discuss personal topics that are not covered by others.

Seeking advice is a sign of respect and encourages you to be complicit in the unfolding events.

Bromance is a living relationship that needs to be maintained. Strong friendship, easy communication and understanding cannot be achieved just by adding someone as a friend on social networks. Really good relationships require regular meetings and a frank exchange of thoughts, and this takes enough time.

There are popular male rituals: playing poker, going to the gym, sauna, watching a football game with beer, going to the cinema or to a concert of your favorite band, fishing.

What not to do:

• You should not remind about the date of acquaintance and mark it in some unusual way. This is more for women.
• Don't often like his photo and leave comments, send emoticons.
• Even good friends can make mistakes and upset, don't be offended for a long time if there is every reason to forgive.
• Not necessaryget close to a person who makes fun of appearance, relatives, religion, manner of communication. You should not try to change something in life, you need to look for another option.
• If you notice that a friend is abusing kindness, whispering behind his back, spreading gossip, you need to stop communication.

• Be careful of pseudo-friends who are looking for connections for profit, career advancement or money. Such individuals can betray and inflict spiritual wounds.

• No need to rant about the personal affairs of the one who initiated you into this. If it becomes known that someone's personal life has become the property of everyone, it is unlikely that your relationship will develop.
• Don't invade your personal space if you don't let them in yet. If, after asking how life is, you hear a dry "Fine" in response, you should stop at this stage.
• You shouldn't feel like you're in control of your life and that a friend has turned the screws.
