Recent retirees to South Carolina were asked their opinions related to their move to South Carolina, their friendships in their previous community and their new community.
· The primary reason for moving to the state was friends and relatives (63 percent).
In the beginning of each interview, couples were asked to complete the survey, examining it for clarity and thoroughness.
The factor that pulled retirees most to South Carolina before the move was "having family and friends in the area" (63 percent), the second most important reason was due to their retirement from the workforce (30 percent).
Approximately 48.5 percent of this sample of new retiree movers do not volunteer in their new community.

The very concept of friendship is a complex one and some understanding is needed of its many facets.
We suggest that there are three distinct functions which relationships fulfil for those engaged in them; in order of importance, these are intimacy, company and practical help.
But, much more importantly, it is also a matter of believing in one's own potential value as a friend and one's own capacity for friendship -- having the confidence that one has something to offer.
The answer to this is complex, involving a combination of personal attributes, taught socialisation and experience.

Woo the object of your admiration with these expressions of love and friendship from Shakespeare's day.
Once you've tried out these wooing words and friendly phrases, create more of your own by imitating these 17th-century models.
You are the rising sun which I adore.
You have a face where all good seems to dwell.
I'll bathe my lips in rosy dews of kisses.
Mine eyes have feasted on your beauteous face.
It is no pilgrimage to travel to your lips.
By you, like your shade, I'll ever dwell.
You, like a comet, do attract all eyes.
Friendship_Networks
networks, friendship, random growth model, self-organized criticality, power law, SOC, social isolates, probability, distribution, secondary friendships, simulation, reproduces, high schools, friendship network formation, power law exponent.
Data for eight friendship networks in high schools given in Coleman (1961) show a power law relationship between component (connected set) size and frequency of component size.
Hallinan's (1989, 1994) preadolescent friendship data concern friendships in classrooms, but as shown below it is likely that a power law distribution of component sizes will not appear if the network size is below 40-50.
Second, the system as a whole---in all dimensions, temporal, spatial, and so forth---exhibits a fair amount of stability even while there may be considerable change within the system.
For a friendship network this would mean that network characteristics, such as the distribution of component sizes or the distribution of degrees, will vary little across time or space.
