I probably have about one friend and so she must occupy all 3 categories for me.
One best (super close, closest anyone will ever get) friend, one or two other good friends and the others are just people whom I say hello.
have you met those people in real life?

My friendship group is kinda complicated but basically I have about 8 friends.
5 of them I talk to regularly (in the same college) but I only class 3 of them as my "close friends".
I have 2 other close friends (went to nursery, primary and secondary school together) but I don't speak to them regularly because they don't go to college with me.
Then there's 2 other "friends" but we really don't talk much.

Oh right, i didnt understand the way you phrased it.

But im super quiet in person and people dont like that. So they all ditch me because of my intorverted nature!
And my looks arent very good so that doesnt help, people cant be seen with people who are bad looking here either.
So ive got no hope of even having a convo with someone, let alone becoming friends with them!

I'd say I have 8 irl friends but we rarely speak or see each other.
Most of them moved far away due to uni and so I see them once a year at the most.

Some people have friends to text all day long but I speak to no one, lol. Sad.
Changed how I defined friends about 2 months ago, so I would say 1.

I've told him to cut me loose though cuz im jus a pain lmao so it will prob end up being 0 for a while.
Have a group of 12 male friends from school then our larger group including girls of around 25, I'd say I only like 3 of 12 guys and only good friends with 2. Then 2 guys on my course at uni, one from when I studied in London I still talk to regularly and my girlfriend who I'd say is my only really close friend. Then one or two people from London I speak to occasionally, and another 8-10 people from London I would see if I went down to visit.

So I'll say 1 really close friend, 5 strong friends. Up to 20 in total if including okay friends and up to 30-40 if including acquaintances.

But people I'd actually talk to on a regular basis, we'll go with 6
about 5 in real life
and a few dozen business associates I can be social with
I've 4 best friends
*half a dozen really really close friends
And some friends who are just close but I'm not extremely close with *
My definition of 'friend' has changed quite a lot in the last few years.

Probably two. Four, if I'm being very generous. :redface:

The rest are acquaintances.
