How do you know when someone is either just your aquaintance or your friend?

First of all an acquaintance is someone you come across maybe once and awhile, or someone you have met in the company of other friends, someone you socialize every now and then.Where a friend is someone you see all the time, someone you spend alot of time with,share things with.Someone you can confide in,and you do things for.People consider their friends like relatives because they are so close.Someone they can trust, where if you run into someone that is only an acquaintance your not going to tell them things you don't want no one else to know,you basically have very short conversations with them because you don't see them all the time or spend alot of time with them.Hope this helps

A big way for me to tell if someone is my friend is if I can trust them. If i cannot trust them I will consider them as my aquaintance. Also if they like to be around you and are nice to you that could also be a sign.

an aquaintance is someone you don't think about all the time, like when you're going to dinner and you think "hey, I wonder if so and so would like to go with me"...
You don't do that with an aquaintance. You're friendly with them when you're with them, and that's about it.
Friends are more like family without the blood relation.
Always remember, You can pick your friends and you can pick your nose, but you can't pick your friends nose.

There is no such thing as a dumb Question.Questions help us make better choices and decisions okay
an acquaintance- is someone you know and communicate with
Doesn't necessarily care what happens in you day to day activities. They are not someone you would go to if you have a problem
A friend is someone you share your thoughts and feelings with. A friend cares and supports you though all your problems.A friend will be there no matter what. A friend is also someone you think of often and look forward to seeing them again.

If it is your friend..You are able to talk to that person about certain things and be comfortable with them. Aquaintance...is someone you sey hey to and occasionally hang out.
