Friendship in the army is something natural, it is something that will be born over time, there is no advice or tip that I can give you so that you can have friends quickly.

In the army you get brothers more than friends, that's what happens when you experience things with people you don't know but those people protect you and you protect them, in this way an unbreakable bond is created, so if you're looking for friends you'll find gold because you'll have brothers.

The best advice I can give you is to respect your superiors, don't be a snitch, and always be willing to help others, if you look at it at the same time I gave you the description that a good squad leader should have, but now By the mere fact of belonging to the army, you have another family.

I went through my gf’s phone and found out she had a crush on my best friend when we first started dating (over a year ago). I suspected this at first but it hurts to have it confirmed and see her telling her friends about him. I’m not sure how I should feel since I went out of line to look through her phone.
