Define your term REAL FRIEND and how the heck is a Admin on a defunct stock board is your REAL FRIEND?

Have you called her on the phone? Have you been over to her house? Have you texted her many times? Are you on her facebook page? Have you bought her books? Have you brought her a pizza to watch some movies? Do you know her real nick name?

Got her address? Sent her flowers for ADMIN day?

No way in hell are you Janice Shell's REAL friend. As described in the English dictionary.

"Acquaintance: not a true friend—sharing of emotional ties are absent. An example would be a coworker with whom you enjoy eating lunch or having coffee, but would not look to for emotional support. Many "friends" that appear on social networking sites are generally acquaintances in real life."


"Best friend (or the closest friend): A person with whom someone shares extremely strong interpersonal ties with as a friend."

"Buddy: In the USA, males and sometimes females often refer to each other as "buddies", for example, introducing a male friend as their "buddy", or a circle of male friends as "buddies". Buddies are also acquaintances that you have during certain events. The term may also refer to an online contact, such as the AOL Buddy List."


I think you and JS have what is described as below

"Frenemy: A portmanteau of the words fr(iend) and enemy, the term frenemy refers to someone who pretends to be a friend but actually is an enemy—a proverbial wolf in sheep's clothing in the world of friendships. This is also known as a love–hate relationship. Most people have encountered a frenemy at one time or another in the same places one might find friends—school, work, the neighborhood. The term frenemy was reportedly coined by a sister of author and journalist Jessica Mitford in 1977, and popularized more than twenty years later on the third season of Sex and the City. While most research on friendship and health has focused on the positive relationship between the two, a frenemy is a potential source of irritation and stress. One study by psychologist Dr. Julianne Holt-Lunstad found that unpredictable love–hate relationships characterized by ambivalence can lead to elevations in blood pressure. In a previous study, the same researcher found that blood pressure is higher around friends for whom they have mixed feelings than it is when they're around people whom they clearly dislike.[9]"
