Re: Overuse of the word "friend" in English
I kinda agree with that @3, which is why I added that bit about having to have been in a few conversations first. Personally though, I think that it is a dangerous thing to have only friends who think and act as you do. You're just creating an echo chamber for yourself if you do that. Who's going to warn you to stop if you're about to do something stupid, embarrassing, or life threatening? Only the one who cares about your safety and wellbeing, and that could be anyone, even someone you do not know. Blessed are the wounds of a friend, and cursed are the kisses of an enemy. if you're going to consider someone a friend whom you can count on, then they need to be brave enough to tell them you're wrong, and you need to be willing to consider their words. These disagreements are the fires that strengthen and refine the bond of friendship on the anvil of life.
