Why do they fail? Lying will kill friendships. So too will hiding behind half-truths. Posturing or posing to impress will lead to larger lies. And failure.
On the opposite side unreasonable expectations can stifle growth of friendships. Friendship also cannot exist in confusion, or artificial connections. Mysterious "gaps" in information hamper the growth of trust and understanding.
I have been involved in friendships that have ended so quickly and violently, to say nothing of unexpectedly, that I will never decipher the reasons. I can only he sure of one thing -- lack of honesty was at the core of the failure.
