Its meant as a broad question as i would like some diverse input.
I have an “unfit” and rigid ruleset of how i define friends and how someone can be one.
It roots in my insecurities and want a starting point to redefine it in a healtier way.

I’ve always been of the opinion that we need to hang out (digitally if IRL is not possible due to distance) and talk without being “forced” by some other reason. For example, did I have classmates in high school that I got along with? Sure. Did we ever hang out outside of school? Nope. Texting outside of school? Nope. And what happened once we graduated? No contact.
If the only reason we interacted was because we were stuck in the same room for 6-7 hours 5 days a week, and not because we actively seeked each other out, then we weren’t friends.
Also quality over quantity!
