Top 10 Unbreakable Principles for Genuine Brotherhood

Affirm your identity as a man, head held high and feet firmly grounded. Eat like a man, drink like a man, train like a man. And always steer clear of cosmetic surgery addiction.

In the realm of eternal brotherhood, never engage in rivalry for the affections of a lady. Refrain from raising a hand against your comrade. Let not the allure of a maiden jeopardize the noble bond among brethren.

Indulge not in frivolities, especially when it comes to relationships. Maintain a respectable distance from sisters, lovers, and wives of your close companions. Refrain from random entanglements, and it is advisable not to engage in petty affairs where you dine.

In matters of the heart, exercise discretion. Sisters, significant others, and the wives of dear friends are territories best left unexplored. Avoid unnecessary liaisons, and, ideally, steer clear of indiscretions at your dining table.

When it comes to the romantic entanglements of your comrades, steer clear. Refrain from socializing with the partners of your brethren, even if they seek solace or understanding. If necessary, seek the counsel of your fellow brothers beforehand.

Whether she seeks a sympathetic ear, is feeling down, or simply wishes to delve into insights about her significant other, the answer remains a firm no. If circumstances dictate otherwise, consult the opinions of your brothers beforehand.

That's not your girlfriend. Instead of making sarcastic comments or expressing disdain for the girl's appearance, wish happiness for your buddy. Just because you're not attracted to that girl doesn't mean your friend isn't.

There will be instances when others try to pull you into speaking negatively about your buddies. For example, 'A's wife doesn't look good, blah blah blah...'

Express your unwillingness to participate and steer the conversation in a different direction. You should respect your buddies' family, work, and finances. Of course, their partners are no exception.

Life is full of ironic situations. Some might be singing karaoke when someone calls girls over to join. Ironically, one of the girls happens to be your buddy's partner. The situation might be awkward, but in the end, I advise sharing the incident. Because letting your friend know if their partner is cheating or deceiving is an unwritten rule among buddies.

Avoid looking down when someone changes pants, maintain a one-basin distance when nature calls, and don't cross arms over while sleeping, etc. Don't let gender misconceptions ruin the bond between buddies. Once that thought takes root, it takes a lot of time for the other person to stop thinking and obsessing about it.

Drive your buddies home if you're sober enough, take a taxi, or if necessary, hide the car keys and bring them home later. Don't challenge fate by downing drinks recklessly and ending up in the hospital due to an avoidable accident: 'Well, couldn't handle it, so what's the point in trying?'

It's not about covering up, but it's best to let your buddy handle it on their own. Keeping mum is what a good sibling would do, not a true buddy.
