Classification of friends

. There are three different kinds of friends in this life. I classify them according to how well I know them and how well they know me. We encounter each of them everyday, whether in school, home, or at the gym. However, we rarely spend much time actually thinking about and classifying these people. First, there are the "pest friends"- general acquaintances. Next, there are "guest friends"- social partners. Lastly, we have "best friends"- our true friends.

The first type of friend is simply an acquaintance. This means that we basically only know their name. We might not even remember what they look like if they go away for a short vacation. Usually, we meet these types of friends in school, at work, on the bus, in the gym, or anywhere else we might be. We normally would not mind having a cup of coffee with them, but if anything else came up, we usually would have no problem parting company. We normally don’t miss them when they are elsewhere. It is also this type of friends who give you the most amount of aggravation. Since most of the time you are placed in a position where you have to act friendly, such as school or work, you would not normally tell an acquaintance when he or she is doing something aggravating, such as tapping the fingers an a table or chewing gum loudly. This is why I call them "pest friends."
family history, and usually have several things in common. If they go on vacation we know that where they gone.
