How variable the word friend is

I've met people who call anyone they've shook hands with and been introduced to a friend, as well as people who wouldn't call you a friend unless you helped them hide a body with no questions asked on at least two separate occasions. These people are not talking about the same thing.

    First case talks about acquaintances.

    Second case talks about siblings.

    WE ARE ALL FRIENDS HERE.

    In other news, I have never had a bad friend. My crowd is always the OK one.

    This is part of why I don't call anyone my "friend" unless I know they consider me their friend as well.

    You can change. You can.
    Friend, to me, is someone who I completely trust.

    As there''s no such thing for me, therefore, I have no friends. That doesn't mean I don't like hanging out with people, having fun, etc etc. I just wouldn't call the "guys" friends.
