These are the people in your gang &#8211; often meet up at the local for a fun drink or the mbogi that call you for the soccer derby.<\/p>\n<p>This group will easily pool resources for an odd road trip out of town &#8211; but, not pool resources to pay a member&#8217;s hospital bill. But, they hardly know your family, kids or what business you do &#8211; if you are in business.<\/p>\n<p>If you don&#8217;t turn up for Karaoke Wednesday, and miss a couple more &#8211; they&#8217;ll move on without as much as a call.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Useful Friends<\/strong><strong>h<\/strong><strong>ips:<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Well, this is based on material benefits. It may be work-based, same employer. It may be business-oriented, same business circles.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s loosely principled on money, special favors &#8211; perhaps, you work in a firm that offers periodic gifts or vouchers that someone leeches off.<\/p>\n<p>This suffers a blow, when one of the parties is no longer as useful. Do not invest emotionally in it.<\/p>\n<h2>Virtuous Friendships:<\/h2>\n<p>It&#8217;s ideally grounded by a common desire for good, and prosperity. It&#8217;s all rounded &#8211; family, business &#8211; and often generational. College friendships may grow on, to form family-level bonds.<\/p>\n<p>However, when the friendship cookie starts to crumble, it leaves a bigger emotional mess in its wake.<\/p>\n<p>The secret for longevity lies in making efforts to nurture it. There are tell-tale signs, however, when a friendship has outran its viable phase.<\/p>\n<p>Here are two common reasons most friendships die a slow death:<\/p>\n<h2>Social Status<\/h2>\n<p>Friendships are built around social circles. A promotion at work may come with a sudden change of income. A friend moves into an upscale neighborhood, hanging spots&#8230;&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Slowly communication starts to fade and die out. Little effort is made to call, meet or share an evening as you used to.<\/p>\n<p>If a friend starts to miss important family dates or events you previously marked, well &#8211; that&#8217;s a sign.<\/p>\n<h2>Communication<\/h2>\n<p>This is crucial in a friendship. Tight friends are usually up on each other&#8217;s call logs, social media timelines and frequent meet-up&#8217;s.<\/p>\n<p>Theme nights are a thing &#8211; Karaoke, Fun Fridays&#8230;.. then, it dies out.<\/p>\n<p>When you try to call or chat, the other is busy, or driving, or cooking &#8211; and, can they call you later?<\/p>\n<p>That &#8216;Call you Later, Bestie&#8217; happens a few weeks down the line. You are alone in that friendship.<\/p>\n<p>Well, it&#8217;s apparent that communication nurtures the bond in every friendship. It matters, too, how heavily friend banter weighs down on their respective budgets.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ghafla.co.ke\/sponsored\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2022\/07\/IMG_20220712_164436.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-3159\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ghafla.co.ke\/sponsored\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2022\/07\/IMG_20220712_164436.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1200\" height=\"628\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ghafla.co.ke\/sponsored\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2022\/07\/IMG_20220712_164436.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.ghafla.co.ke\/sponsored\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2022\/07\/IMG_20220712_164436-300x157.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ghafla.co.ke\/sponsored\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2022\/07\/IMG_20220712_164436-1024x536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.ghafla.co.ke\/sponsored\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2022\/07\/IMG_20220712_164436-768x402.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Presently, this needn&#8217;t bite to reach a fiend for some juicy grapevine &#8211; thanks to the timely <a href=\"https:\/\/www.safaricom.co.ke\/personal\/data\/nyoosha-shilingi-offer\"><em><strong>Nyoosha Shilingi<\/strong><\/em> <\/a>factor.<\/p>\n<p>Communication is now much cheaper.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.safaricom.co.ke\/personal\/data\/nyoosha-shilingi-offer\"><em><strong>Nyoosha Shilingi<\/strong><\/em> <\/a>is a brainchild of leading communication provider Safaricom to help their clients navigate harsh economic times with more on offer (calls and data) for the same amount.<\/p>\n<p>Simply put, for the same price, Data, Calls and SMS offers are extended by between 40% and 100%.<\/p>\n<p>Nyoosha Shilingi has made using Whatsapp, for audio and video calls a viable option.
