My grandmother used to say to me, “You can count the number of your true friends on the fingers of one hand.” For a long time I thought this was ________ . Because there are not so many true friends in our life. But later, I’ve discovered that my grandmother was only half right. Maybe we do only ________ a few “best” friends in our lifetime, but those aren’t the only people that we can call friends. There are many different ________. Let me tell you about a few of them.
One type of friends is the type that I call the “soccer mum friend”. My neighbor Betty is a good ________ . We both have kids who play soccer, and someone has to take them to their practices and pick them up . Betty and I and two ________ mothers do this. We meet sometimes and have coffee and talk ________ what our kids are doing, but those are the only times that we see each other. I ________staying with these women, but we don’t do anything else together.
Another type is the “________ friend”. This is the person ________you share an interest or a hobby with. Doug and Charles Fisher, who are brothers, are a good example of this type. They all ________ to a bird-watching club. Every few weekends the members of the club go on hikes to watch different kinds of ________ . There’s nothing romantic about my relationship with Doug and Charles, of course. We just share an interest in birds.
