Is it unhealthy to have one best friend?

Question

One best friend, other best friends but none very close. Coz my form teacher said it was unhealthy to me and my bestie.

Answer 1

Having one best friend is not unhealthy. Plus, teachers should mind their own business. U can have only one best friend, SO MANY best friends or no best friends at all! It's ur choice and u shouldn't ALWAYS listen to ur teachers. ^-^ Toodles!

Answer 2

Uh, no. It doesn't matter, really. I think that teacher should mind their own business though.

Answer 3

i have never heard of that before. i think your teacher only meant it in the way that you get so attached to each other that you might not branch out to meet many other people. i just say have a best friend and a bunch of close friends. that's the way to go.

Answer 4

I think you are still confuse....whether your friend is your best friend or not.

Its not at all unhealthy to have a best friend !!!

Answer 5

It's not unhealthy at all, i don't seem why it would be. Don't listen to your teacher if you have one best friend and that's the only friend you can tell your secrets to then only have one it's your choice not your teachers.

I had one best friend at my old school and i ended up fine,now i have more than one but it's really a bit different. having one was better because you knew they wouldn't tell your secrets to anybody.

Hope this helps ! :)

Answer 6

As long as you're both getting along, and you accept each other for who you are, then you guys are really compatible and are great friends.

Answer 7

I have no friends and I consider it to be a positive influence on my self esteem.

Answer 8

it's only a problem if you start to feel stifled or bored with them. then you can always meet some new people just to vary things a bit.

i have a best friend, but i try to talk to lots of different people so that we each have our own space.

Answer 9

Well as you said you have other friends so its not as if you only talk to your best friend. Ignore your teacher shes obviously a t**t

Answer 10

sometimes teachers dont know best...and this one most definitley should not be influencing young minds....as long as you associate with other people as well, then i see no harm in it....it can actually be good for you!

Answer 11

It's totally healthy because you have that one best friend that you can trust and count on!

so it's very healthy to have one best friend!

Answer 12

don't listen to your teacher, there's nothing wrong with having 1 best friend!

Answer 13

No. to be healty you must have a best friend to share your feeling, your worries, your thoughts, your happiness and seeking advice for a better feature.

Answer 14

Some people have one best friend. Some have several. And some have no best friends at all. Everyone is different so the statement your teacher made was simply an opinion. Most likely your teacher has/had several best friends.

Answer 15

Your teacher is a dumb-****. I have 4 best friends and we all are close to one another. My friendship with one of them started at middle school, like 27 years ago. the others got befriend with me 20 years ago. If you can talk about yourself and your dreams and wishes with your friends, and they listen to you, and don't laugh at you or ignore you, and are always ready to help you in bad times, and get happy for your success, they could be your best friends.
