He always greeted Yaser warmly before class. Sometimes he offered to study with Yaser. He even invited Yaser to eat lunch with him. But after the semester was over , Steve seemed more distant. The two former classmates didnt see each other very much at school. One day Yaser decided to call Steve. Steve didnt seemed very interested in talking to him. Yaser was hurt by Steves change of attitude. “ Steve said we were friends ,” Yaser complained, “ and I thought friends were friends for ever.” Yaser is a little confused. As a foreigner , he doesnt understand the way Americans view friendship. Americans use the word “friend” in a very general way. They may call both casual acquaintances and close companions “friends”. These friendships are based on common interests. When the shared activity ends, the friendship may disappear. Now as Steve and Yaser are no longer classmates, their friendship has changed. In some cultures friendship means a strong life-long bond between two people. In some cultures friendships develop slowly, since they are built to last. American society is one of rapid changes. Studies show that one out of five American families moves every year. American friendships develop quickly, and they may change just as quickly. People from the United States may at first seem friendly. Americans often chat with strangers. But American friendliness is not always an offer of true friendship.

It is impossible that he will ever again in his life be given so much without having to do anything in return.
