M: Anyway, Jessica, I think whether you enjoy having friends or not depends on what your definition of friendship is.
W: Right,’ maybe my expectations are just too high. What’s your definition of friendship?
M: Well, real close friends are very rare. I only have a few of the kind of friends who I make the effort to keep in touch with.., and I’ll probably keep in touch with them forever.
W: Me too. And the only way I’ll make more of those kinds of friends is by meeting more people.
M: Absolutely. I’m just having so much fun meeting all different kinds of people with different backgrounds.
W: So you seem to be saying that you’re happier now that you are more social.
M: Yes, definitely. Even though my life at college is not perfect, the fact that I have an active social life has really made me a lot happier.
W: But why do you think so?
M: Well because I feel a part of something. I feel like there’s a group of different people who are in a similar situation with me.
W: You mean that you have things in common to talk about?
M: Yes. Not only that but we can share our experiences and get to know that other people share our feelings.
W: Right. That makes a lot of sense to me.
M: Speaking of friendship, do you want to come with me to our school auditorium this weekend to see a performance or a film or something?
W: Sure, that would be fun.
M: Great. I’ll give you a call on Saturday and we can figure something out.
W: Ok, super. I’ll talk to you later.
