Friendship is the key to a strong and fruitful relationship with another individual. There comes a certain point where an individual can change their own life, as well as influence another's perspective on certain aspects and ideas of righteousness and quality of themselves. The Epic of Gilgamesh focuses on a particular point of view in which the awareness of growing and finding wisdom within oneself is emphasized through Gilgamesh himself and his relationship with his friend Enkidu. On the other hand, Gilgamesh changes as a person at a certain point in the story where their friendship evolves, where Gilgamesh's unpleasant qualities are finally put aside.

Gilgamesh is also depicted as selfish in his way of treating people with negative intentions and unnecessary battles, or ends up engaging in the excessive use of controlling authority towards other people.
