The benefit of having a good friend is that you feel so comfortable, which should inspire you to find out new friends. But it can backfire if you and your good friend are so close you never make new friends. So having good limit your other friendship opportunities.

Con: Give him or her more priority than your other friend

Your good friend always wants more priority from you. You have to give him or her more priority than your other friends. Otherwise your relationship can break with your good friend. It’s a big negative site of this type of relationship.

Con: You may forget how to talk less

Talking less is a skill. But if you have a good friend you can’t talk less. You have to talk with him or her all day long. It can be disappointed for you when you have a good friend. You can’t talk with your other friends. When you have a good friend that you hang with 24 hours/7days, you may forget less talk is better. But talking less is better than talking much. It will help you to be a hard worker, but if you have a good friend you can’t practice talking less. At a time you and your good friend will start much talking with other person also. 

Con: You might argue a lot

Having a good friend is better. But in this type of relationship argument can be a big matter. You or your good friend can argue a lot for any reason or without any reason. Most of the time two friends argue with each other for a trivial matter. Argument can break the relation of friendship. When you spend much time with your good friend it will increase the chance of bickering. Argument is not a big thing but you and your good friend need to argue with each other respectfully. Also you have to remember that argument can break your relationship.


When two people are staying together for a long time they are being close to each other and they become good friends. Having a good friend is not a bad thing. You can share a lot of things to your good friend; you can pass your time with your good friend and you can do a lot of fun with your good friend. But there have some bad site of having a good friend. You have to avoid this bad thing when you select a person as your good friend. Living with someone can change the dynamic of the friendship. 

So weigh pros and cons of a good friend and take decision carefully when you thinking to have a good friend.
