Boys, like girls, need friends. Many people believe that boys need fewer friends than girls do. In fact, boys are much happier and healthier when they have good friends.
There are some differences in friendships between girls and boys. For example, Amy and Sarah are the best friends. They walk to school together every morning, and always eat lunch together. While they sometimes read books, play games, their heads are always close together. They talk about everything. Jason and Leo are friends. Jason sometimes talks with Leo about his parents7 divorce (离女昏) because he knows that Leo's parents are divorced, too. But they only talk to each other and keep the secret. When the other boys are around, they play ball games or talk about other things like their favorite films.
People believe that girls are better at making friends, but most boys think making friends is an important part of their lives. Boys may be better at keeping friendships than girls.
