TURN

Acquaintances

into

friends

Some people have a lot of acquaintances, but very few friends. What is the difference between friends and acquaintances? An acquaintance is someone you might see every day, and you might even have a conversation with, but it usually doesn’t go beyond friendly, superficial talk. If you’re looking for a good friend, someone you can eventually confide in and rely on, you must go deeper than just saying hi to everybody.
