Define "friend"

Pretty much in agreement. I have a handful of friends that I'm so close with they have been given 'Honorary Family' status. Then I have friends, people who I have known for years but can't tell EVERYTHING to. They're just hang-out buddies. Then there are people I have met and like but don't hang out with a whole lot. Sad thing is, with the exception of my mother, my 'Honorary Family' means more to me than my real family......long story blah blah blah....
