Suemee的SAT Essay范文 Friends can almost always convince or persuade you into doing something that you think is wrong. You feel pressure on you because you feel if you dont do what they say, you could lose them, which may be a large portion of your life. The deeper and longer a friendship has lasted, the more that person knows your weaknesses that could possibly be used against you in negative ways. For some people, friends are the only thing in their life they can depend on, and these friends are like an outlet from their other personal problems. Because friends are such a big part of their lives, these dependent people will risk many things in order to continue their relationships. Some may steal, get into drugs, break communication with their own families and become unsuccessful in school. Others may follow their friends because they think that without those people theyd be empty and feel insecure about themselves. Friends can also react on one another in positive ways. Being able to tell friends things you couldnt tell family and helping each other with school work are two positive impacts friends can make in an individuals life. There are probably more positive effects friends have on one another than negative effects, or else friendships would not exist, and everyone would live for and by themselves. |
