Well, is it better to have a large or small group of friends? If you ask me then I will say: "Take the small group". Why, you may be asking? Well, because when you are partying with a small group of people you get to know each one of them better and once you know each one better then you feel more comfortable with them. You know who's the best to turn to when you have a problem, you know who's the best to take steps back from because he isn't your type.

When I say small, just so you would get me right - I mean no more than ten people. I'll get back to the thing I wrote in the upper paragraph: when you have no more than ten people your possibilities are smaller and so you know what to do with whom. When you have twenty "friends", then it might be harder to decide to whom to turn when you are in trouble or are thinking of something. It's not the same head - to - head, face - to - face, heart - to - heart kind of relationship. When you have ten friends you can ask every one of them how are they feeling that day without getting an headache and a lose of time. You can also remember each of their answers. When you need to go around tens of people - you might miss someone or forget all of their answers, and it would take you a lot of time... My point is that you feel more secure in a group of small number of people, and more warm and happy, I suppose, because you know almost everything and you have enough room in your head for all.

Another point you might want to know is that if you have a small group of friends - then when you arrange a party you can easily take one of your friends' yard for it and celebrate happily together. It won't cost you a penny for the yard- just for all the goodies. When you have a large number of people in the group - you might need a larger place. Maybe you'll need a villa (a huge house). If one of your large-grouped friends has one, then I'm very sorry for you, because rich people aren't that nice as well. If none of your giant group's people has a villa then you'll have to rent a huge hall to party in and that would cost you just like a villa. So my word is - no.

The most important thing about a small group better than a large group is the relationships in the groups. It never is the same, I'm sorry to say... Don't look for the number - look for the quality! So as I had already said about more than five times - it would be better to pick the smaller group, because there would be warmer for you, whoever you are. I guarantee you!
