Friendship Initiation
In times where many people don’t decide for marriage or even longterm relations, friendships are getting more important. Yet it is not always easy to actively invest in a friendship when you move or have different occupations. Like a wedding, a festive initiation could give a new layer of quality to a friendship. Inspiration for rituals could come from classic friendship-bonding situations like campfires at a lake, star- or sunset watching. Even a contract could be written to seal the devotion to the partnership similar to a wedding contract.
