Both love and friendship are special and natural feelings of human.
All of them are derived from sincere hearts.
Someone said that: "Friendship is a kind of love without wings".
Everyone always wants to have longing friendship and a real love.
But it's really hard.
It takes time, patience.
Remember: If you want others treat you well, you must treat them better first.
Maybe even you must improve your behaviour much better to succeed in finding longing friendship or a real love.
Friendship can easily lead to love, even a real love for the whole life.
But what about friendship following a love?
A boy and a girl, after they had happy time with each other in love, for some reason, they can't keep that kind of relationship longing any more then they broke up.
So after that, should they be friends or not?
In my opinion, they should be still friends.
Nothing to be afraid!
Just because I'll be hurter when I've lost a real friend than when I've lost the person whom I've ever loved.
