Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Some similarity between Romeo and Juliet's friendship values is that when Romeo and his closely related friend, Mercutio grow up to become their best friends. However, they break apart throughout their manhood. As mentioned Mercutio commits himself to commits himself to male camaraderie, while Romeo commits himself to love. At this point, Romeo is truly saddened and depressed because he lost a friend but then, his generous cousin Benvolio comes up to comfort him through his hardness and finds new joy through his cousin. The same thing is with today's friendship values. You might seem to think that one individual was a Best Friend all along and then find out to be shattered apart through arguments. However, no one is wretched from friendship forever, they convey new acquaintances and continue the spirit as in the story, where Benivolio appears as new mates.
