There are several ways of avoiding the dangers of friendship. The first and hardest option is to ensure that no one ever idles. The second is to designate a HUGE [[Activity zone#Meeting Area|meeting area]], so that idlers won't be anywhere near each other. The best way, however, is to provide everyone with a personal [[bedroom]]. When this is combined with the absence of a designated meeting area, idle dwarves will spend their time in their bedrooms, alone.

Extra care must be taken with [[soldier]]s in the same squad, for not only do they spend a lot of time together, and thus can easily socialize when they're off-duty, but they also are the most likely to die (especially if they're inexperienced recruits). This often leads to the entire squad becoming depressed over the death of a single soldier; combined with the fact that the soldiers are most likely equipped with armor and weapons, this means that [[tantrum|tantrums]] resulting from a soldier's death can be <s>catastrophic</s> fun.
