Abstract

This paper aims to discuss the friendship through the vulnerabilities that relations between friends are exposed in
daily life. Therefore, in the analysis of vulnerabilities in the relationship between friends aims to understand why
some come to an end. At first, try to establish an approximate relationship between falling in love, love and friendship, to then discuss the social and moral relations produced in a process of friendship and love between friends,
and vulnerabilities that discuss, complicate and tighten some relationships and lead others to a close. The analysis
isfull of commentstaken from interviews conducted overseveral yearsin all Brazilian state capitals, and who claim
the existence of friendships so intense that felt as eternal, or so that desired look. I try to understand the startle
some interviewees when they having experienced long friendships, suddenly, one day, these relational if it strange
and everything built together lost or seems to lose meaning, and comes to an end.
