Aristotle and Friendship

Aristotle believes that (a) good life includes superior, unique human activities, (b) noble values, challenging to such activities, and (c) this activity In such a performance, a kind person is doing what she wants to do, so very happy and satisfied. II Vol 8 and Vol 9, Aristotle discusses the role of friendship in a better life. From the present situation it is clear that he must believe that there is a close relationship between friendship and benign activity.

In this book, Aristotle explains friendship as good goodwill, mainly as a relationship between two people, love and sharing goodwill between the two. But the issue of perfect friendship lies in this source of kindness, where Aristotle explains three common types of friendship: utility, happiness, kindness or virtue. Aristotle also explained that each of these friendships is a true friendship and should have the following attributes. "So, in order to be friends, men must be kind to each other, they must realize each other's goodwill and their goodwill must be one of the cute qualities above."

In Nicole's ethics, Aristotle mentioned friendship as a kindness of reciprocity. However, this source of goodwill distinguishes perfect friendship from two imperfectly shaped friendships. True friendship, friends love each other for themselves, they want to have good things with each other. Aristotle said that this type of friendship is only possible between "good people". Because only good people can love others for the benefit of this person. Two imperfect forms of friendship are based on utility or enjoyment. Incomplete friends like profits they get from their relationships: they find happiness, usefulness, or both of them, and their goodwill then arises. For example, my relationship with a golf partner that makes me laugh may be a pleasant friendship. His friendship is practical if he is playing with me as I am a member of a luxury golf club.
