Friendship Inventory for Men OnlyDo you have any friends—men—who allow you to be yourself and who stand behind you regardless of your social status, occupation, or situation?Do you ever let yourself show emotions, such as fear or sadness, in front of those friends?Do they feel close enough to you to offer advice or to come to you for counsel?Do you respect your friends' opinions and beliefs, even when you disagree?If you have a falling out with a friend, do you take the initiative to resolve the problem?If the men you call friends really are friends, your answers to these questions should have been "yes," according to David W. Smith. He says, "Men usually don't know how to keep a friendship once they have one, so they rarely benefit from whatever friendships they have. What men have with other men is generally a coworker or buddy relationship, not a friendship."Men Without Friends looks at the components of mutual loyalty, mutual commitment, mutual interests, mutual acceptance, personal enjoyment, and unconditional love. It challenges you to build friendships that will stand the test of time, and "be there" through the ups an downs of life.
