TYPES OF FRIENDSHIPS IN US
(NEW YORK TIMES)
 
•
Americans are thought to be suffering a loss in the quality and
quantity of close friendships since at least 1985 (American
Sociological Review ).
•
The study states 25% of Americans have no close confidants, and the
average total number of confidants per citizen has dropped from 4 to
2.
 
•
Reasons: the shortage of time & numerous commitment to family,
work…
•
Thus, Americans have casual, friendly relationships with many people,
but closer friendships with only a few.
