This topic and outline design show that this topic can hardly be written into a research paper.

This paper will be an advice-type article, which analyzes the reasons of people's changes before and after getting more familiar with each other and suggests people what is wise attitude and solution to human relationship, esp. friendship.

Think about how to explore this topic for more research value.

For example, think about this kind of topic:

The phenomenon of double-face in friendship
or
The duality of people's behavior in friendship

Then describe different kinds of double-face phenomena, and then explore the reasons from social environment, economic situation, cultural background, psychological expectation, etc.

Go further to see how to detect the duality in friend's behavior

Proper attitude and countermeasures toward double-face phenomenon

In the beginning introduction part, explain why you have chosen this topic, for example, more and more people feel it's getting more and more difficult to find a real sincere and honest friend now.
