Pergunta: Is it better to have a lot of friends than just a few friends?

Análise

Discuss the value of deep, meaningful relationships compared to broader, perhaps shallower connections. 2. You might argue that having a few close friends allows for deeper emotional support and understanding, which can be more fulfilling.
