Why are our friends sometimes considered part of our family?

There are some friends that feel like part of our family as they do not leave us no matter what happens. They are there not only in good times but in bad times as well. Why are our friends sometimes considered part of our family?

Family means basically people who are your blood and bones. However, sometimes some people might come in your life who build a bond that is stronger than blood and bone.

Even the Bible says there are friends who stick closer than a brother. I've got a friend who's practically a brother as I speak. Such friends are irreplaceable in our lives

I would repeat it. There are friends that stick closer than a brother. That kind of friend that is always there and has never looked back on the friendship. That friend is family and deservingly so.

I think friends are considered part of our family when they provide consistent support, loyalty, and care similar to relatives. I’ve noticed that close friends often share important life moments, offer advice, and stand by us during tough times.
