I want to express my support for this feature. I use my "friends" list both
for communication with my friends, and for tracking my enemies- call it my
"conflict of interest" filter- there are a handful of people on LJ with whom
I have had spectacular real life blowouts. And being able to tell if
somebody has this person(S) 'friended'  makes a lot of posts involving my
actual life much easier.

Or at least it did in the Summer of 2005. My personal life is now a lot
lower drama, but my love of the feature is still there. Because sometimes
you don't want people to be in a position where they have to take sides.

Nora - drama queen?
