Friendship can be used as an uncountable noun (referring to the general feeling or state of being friends) or as a countable noun (referring to a specific relationship between particular people). The uncountable form is more common in general statements, while the countable form often appears with descriptive adjectives (a close / lasting / deep friendship).
