When love changes the friend group forever.
Why first-year university friend groups often break apart
On-screen bromances like Chandler-Joey, Sherlock-Watson, and Andy-Red highlight deep, loyal friendships that transcend conflict and time, proving that true connection, trust, and emotional support define the heart of cinematic friendship.
We often underestimate just how powerful friendship really is. While careers, routines, and to-do lists fill up our days, it is often the people we share laughter, stories, and silence with who leave the biggest impact on our lives.
There's a spectrum of universities in every country, from well-reputed ones that only accept the most decorated applicants to others that still offer high quality education while accepting students who didn’t prioritise academics as much in high school. This means that even if you're particularly ambitious, you don't have to choose between academic prestige and long-standing relationships.
I have been asked many times by my friends about the next instalment of my encounters with people in Dhaka. Honestly, I have been meaning to write and there are quite a few who I want to pay tribute to. It’s just that life catches up in the most unexpected ways and keeps you busy. However, finally, I could make time for another such story of another person who has enriched my life infinitely.
Amidst the sea of likes, comments and fleeting interaction, there lies the possibility of finding people who have the potential to be crucial parts of your life.

Calls and texts will be your new best friends when navigating the challenges of anything long-distance.
Dhaka means the world to me. Most of my professional life has been here and a large chunk of my personal life is intrinsically linked with Dhaka. I am never tired of the city. Yes, there are obstacles. Yes, there are resource shortages. Yes, there are insane traffic snarls. But there is one thing which is never in short supply — great people!
In the world of entertainment, it is not uncommon to be swept away by the charms of an actor or the fictional character played by them. Sometimes it is the looks, sometimes the sense of humour and so on. But then there are those who come with the best and etch their names in our hearts, making it impossible to forget them.

It’s imperative that you make the effort to get out of your shell and find like minded people.
Platonic friendships have started to take centre stage in the fabric of people's lives after being confined to the periphery of interpersonal ties in the past.
