Date: 2020-12-18 02:25 pm (UTC)I agree with you that sharing personal things is usually a good signifier, although sometimes I have no filter so I will just say things without it being reciprocal - something the internet tends to enable.
I do find determining whether people are friends or acquaintances hard - I won't be the first to declare someone a friend its usually the other person doing that for better or worse.
One of my challenges making friends is that I don't have kids, which seems to be a key way you make friends as an adult This is becoming more apparent in the last couple of years and makes maintaining current friendships in person harder.
One thing COVID has shown me is how much of my current in person friendships were based on common experiences/doing things together rather than shared interests/thoughts/outlooks. Which means when things relax a bit for in person meetings, I'm going to need to make a concerted effort to make more friends that do, and that are close enough to see more regularly.
