How does the time we live in threaten the third, and most precious, kind of friendship, according to mr. may? why is it important to cultivate such friendships now?

Explanation:

In his book titled "Friendship in an Age of Economics: Resisting the Forces of Neoliberalism" Todd May wrote about the importance of having good friendship in such a time of neoliberalism where relations are prone to become neoliberal.

In his book, May categorised friendship into three types namely friendship of pleasure, of usefulness, and true friendship. He asserted that many times we forget the third type of friendship, the most precious, a true friendship.

He said that we tend to forget the third type of friendship because of time. He said that our true relations stand as a tenor to our time.

May asserted that true friendship is threatened when we look at the relations as a stuff that will give us pleasure, and only bywords are offered and that friendships are meant just for economical gain.

We live in a time neoliberal world where relationships are built based on economic benefits or pleasures. And May asks his audience to push back ourselves from such time and build true friendships that benefit us emotionally during the hard times of life.

According to May, it is important to cultivate true friendships now because these relationships helps us to view ourselves from others point of view. Because these are the relations that stand beside us during our difficult times and helps to deepen our interests.
