What is most important in a friendship the cumunication or listening?

Answer 1

Essentially communication and listening are one and the same. Some people might argue that communication goes both ways, while listening is one person talking, but listening is actually more complicated then that. A good listener gives clues to let the talker know that they're listening- for example, sitting up straight. But they also need to look at the talker for hints that they feel like they're being listened to. Since we can't read each others minds, in conversation we must constantly look for signs from the other person. Though I'm describing a good listener, ultimately I'm also describing good communication.
