Choosing friends is never considered to be an easy thing for most of the people. We
spend lots of time on selecting friends and we often carefully measure by ourselves what
kind of people should we choose as our friends. Some people choose friends who are
different from themselves, while others prefer to having friends who are similar to
themselves. Fairly speaking, these two attitudes both have their own advantages over the
other. Undoubtably, there are a number of advantages of choosing friends who are similar
to ourselves. One most oblivious thing is that it tends to be easier for people with the
same character and personality to get along. They can always feel free when talking with
each other and express their own opinions openly without worrying too much about the
consequence. Meanwhile, for two friends who are similar with each other in some
degree; it will be easier for them to make a decision or build a common view at most of
the time, just as most of the people would agree with this boundless proud sense `that is
what a friend for`. However, there are also certain advantages people often overlooked of
making friends with those who are quite different from you in some ways. For example,
this way offers an excellent opportunity for two people to learn from each other. They
will discover time by time that there are many merits existing in the other which they lack
and can benefit from. Also, this method of making friends will teach people one of the
most important life skills, that is, how to successfully interact with those people who are
different from yourselves; how to get along with them. Since a lot of the time in our lives,
due to working, studying or even traveling, we actually deal with many people who have
the completely different personalities or experiences from us. So that it is especially
significant for us to develop a communicating skill from choosing friends who are
different from ourselves. Personally, I would prefer to choosing those who are in some
ways different from me as my friends. For I always hold the belief that the key point in
making friends is that we must be able to learn from each other, and therefore making
progress together. That is the higher level of friendship I wish to achieve. For a true
friend is not just someone who you share fun with, who you tell secrets to or who you
search comfort from; a true friend is considered to be someone who can also give you
some positive influence and from whom you can always learn from.

I got from my new friend. So, from my discussions above, I would like to say that I like
to have both kinds of friends. Friends who are similar to me make me always happy and
friends who are different from me may give me some great changes in my life.
