4 Types of Friends: Must Friends, Trust Friends, Rust Friends & Just Friends

I wonder if over the holiday you have spent time with friends?  Strong relationships with other people are a key to our happiness according to ancient philosophers and contemporary psychologists.  Humans need to form bonds with others, to feel like we belong. Humans need to  give and receive support from each other.

Friendships can be wonderful but they can also be challenging. Perhaps if we thought about friendships as Geoffrey Greif suggests it might be helpful. He divides friendships into the four different categories as in the title; must friends, trust friends, rust friends and just friends. All can add positive things to your life.
