facebook discussion: Facebook 'friends'.

We generally misinterpret many relationships to be friendships when they should actually be classified as acquaintances or may be relatives. I think the problem is with limitation of options in fb. These 5,6,7 odd hundreds have been categorized as 'friends' by facebook otherwise they all are not 'friends' in the true sense of the word.
Most of them are:
acquaintances, associates, classmates, colleagues, companions, compatriots, just familiar, partners, playmates, roommates, schoolmates, well-wishers, friends of friends, neighbors, sympathizers, ally, or merely fellow countryman who are not 'enemy' and with whom we share something, may be just even a thought.
There could be various reasons why we have or do not have someone on the list. Otherwise someone has said 'two is a company, three is a crowd'.
