An interesting topic. Friendships. I've known people that made friends instantly only to lose them in about two years. Supposedly life long friendships usually suffer from the inevitable location moves. You may think about them all the rest your life but the miles cause you to loose actual contact.
Most people - even when mated - grow at different rates. After some years go by you don't see eye to eye and never will and there is less and less to talk about the both of you can agree with.
What I do find very telling in my personal experience is I was some what methodical in my way of thinking and never really planned on having any friends. There were no expectations. When it did happen it was a unlikely occurrence. Well not as rare as being struck with a meteor. And certainly more comfortable.
Given an attitude like that is must be amazing I would have any friends. Some of the best things things in life aren't necessarily what you were looking for anyway. Of late I have of course expanded my sphere of existence to many more years and life times and realize things were out there looking for me.
For better or worst ...

Here is a few general thoughts which came to mind about your subject. I wish you well in your project.
Friendship is a vast and interesting subject to me. Have my Moon in Aquarius ( Aquarius is said to be The astrological sign of friendship.) In astrology parlance there is what is called strong energetic binding with other individuals. The binding together of different people can cause friendships to happen and sometimes relationships to blossom. Some friendships turn into real relationships in our life...which can effect us in many ways. The other kind of interaction between people is what is termed “acquaintances” we may have many acquaintances in life but few deep close friends out of them.
First interactive relationships are usually forged by and with family members and then we seek to interact with the larger groups like neighborhood chums, school mates etc. Two or more people living in the same neighborhood and having similar backgrounds via same school, same classes, same interests all have the possibility of turning into friendships. Sometimes they even turn into enemies.
As we grow some people make friends via more schooling, finding others with similar interests... The workplace is a rich source for many to awaken friendship.
From astrological point of view the signs of Aquarius and all the air signs as a general rule are harmonious with making friends and communicating with friends. The house of friends in astrology is the 11th house. The 11th house is the house of groups and organizations we belong to. It is the house of acquaintances - sometimes we meet many people during our interactions within groups but it does not mean we always forge close friendships with them. The 7th House is the house of one-to-one encounters. Usually those who have friendships with that type of energy behind it last longer.
all for now,,
will return to it later if useful at all Multi.
