Summary/Abstract: Nowadays adolescence plays an important role in social and emotional adaptation. At this life stage friendships become more stable and teenagers face for the first time the experience of love. These relationships are defining for them and proper behaviors are experienced through peer group socialization. Even if in the academic field, the topic of friendship and love are treated as different kind of relationships, in adolescence there are generic and interdependent behaviors, based on the common ground of interpersonal attraction, free selection of partners and similar functions and outcomes. Beyond its wide variability of expression these relationships constitute elements of typical behaviors. The present paper, based on a transversal inquiry among college and high school students, wants to emphasize the common traits of these relationships as patterns of group behavior.
