MOBILITY AND FRIENDSHIP
Americans are geographically mobile and learn to develop friendship easily and quickly. Approximately one of every five Amerian families move every year. People relocate because they begin their new jobs, attend distant colleges, get married, have children or simply want to change their lives. Perhaps as consequence of these, people form and end friendships quickly. Students attending two or three universities during their undergraduate and graduate years may change their circles of friends several times.
Relationships based on a common activity may face or end when activity ends. Students might meet in classes and remain friends for the duration of the course and then stop seeing each other after the final examination. The same holds true for neighbors who are the closest of friends until one moves away. In these friendships, shared daily experiences form the foundation for the friendship. Enduring their friendships develop when individuals have similar interests and a common outlook on life. The high rate of mobility in the United States can explain a great deal about transient friendships.
It is easy to be misled (bị hiểu sai) by instant friendship which may appear to be deep and personal but are really superficial (hời hợt). Friendship and friendliness are not synonymous (đồng nghĩa). Friendliness is characterized much of American daily interaction but is not always and indication of friendship. Strangers may share life histories without any intention of pursuing a relationship. Characterizing instant friendship is the appearance of two people becoming close but, in reality, there is no strong bond between them. Brief encounters do not always imply desire for further contact. Many people frequently smile or say, "Have a nice day!" or "See you later," or even extend an invitation as part of a cultural pattern of politeness. Such expressions do not always suggest an offer of continued friendship.
