So many people mistakenly call people they know or meet, “a friend of theirs”. I believe, your an acquaintance before your a friend. I have many acquaintances, but only a few can be called my friends. Friendship is a sort of relationship between people. It’s an understanding of each other. Of what is important and what isn’t to each other. It’s a commitment, of sorts, allowing each other to comfortably participate in life together.
