McClay has a very unique take off what a friendship between to people could truly result in. He explains that a friendship is like none other, one with no constrictions, with no worry of commitment or true loyalty to one other, it is "static" relationship that generally ends with on leaving the other due to an array of situations; however, the way McClay describes the uneventful end of a friendship as one filled of sorrow doesn't sit right on my tongue. His take on friendship describes the entirety of one being a tragedy, yet I don't see it that way at all.
A friendship is a carefree relationship, something many people desire with someone else. The fact that a person can be lazy in a friendship is what attracts people to partake in them, but it's not something that is "tragic". Personally, all friendships are one to build memories of off and continue to stay happy about even though you might have parted ways. I had one childhood friend who I still remember everything about and looking back at the things we did, like playing in the sandpit at the local park, or going to his house for dinner every other day, it bring nothing but great memories and sense of happiness to my head instead of mourning our experiences we had, and we could have had as still being friends. It's inevitably turns toxic for one to continue to think about "What If" situations in terms of friendships because you are dishonoring the relationship you had built during that time. For me, friendship is like an unbroken code of conduct, you cherish what you have and never forget it, but it doesn't mean you resent doing it all. Everyone should look forward to new friendships to create memories and find stability similar to how you might have in the past.
This article was full of ideas on friendships, some I do agree with, and some are downright preposterous, but friendship is like a plot, full of turn and different in every novel.
