Rao: There are many, for example saying a lot of bad words.
Panther Press: This goes along with the other question but what are the things you feel are red flags in friendships?

Rao: I can tell a consular or another friend about the problem.
Panther Press: What are some ways to show your friends appreciation?
Rao: I can make cards for their birthdays,and be nice and support them for their problems.
Panther Press: That is a very good way…the next question is how can you support friends who have different perspectives or beliefs than you?
Rao: For me I would say that it’s okay to have different opinions on stuff and agree with each other.
Panther Press: Then what do you do if you feel like a friend taking you for granted?
Rao: In my opinion I would tell her to stop and stop being friends with her.
Panther Press: But then how do you know it is time to let down a friendship?
Rao: I know when to let down a friendship because if a friend is not here for me and being mean, I would let down that friendship
Panther Press: What do you believe is the biggest challenge in maintaining good friendships?
Rao: I feel like the biggest challenge is getting along with each other.
Panther Press: That is a real challenge regardless how do you define loyalty in a friendship?
Rao: To me loyalty means being honest,and having fun and being included with them.

Panther press: I would also give the same advice! Anyways In your opinion,what can break a friendship, and how can you repair it?
