I have a friend i met a few years ago who’s a pretty solid friend. We’ve had great conversations, he’s good company and gives me genuine compliments which is a bit of a rarity guy to guy and refreshing. That said, our views on a lot of world views, politics, etc are very different, and it’s unlikely we’d be friends if I was a different race/ ethnicity. All of these things keep me from labeling him a ‘best friend’, and I don’t imagine that’d ever change unless his or my views radically altered. Similarly I have an ex who had a few close friends who were agreeable in perspectives, but made morally ‘wrong’ decisions such as abandoning those close to them or cheating on a significant other. These choices didn’t really affect her friendship(s) which I always found odd. All of this is to ask, do you think the company you keep is reflective of your own ethics/ viewpoints and do you view friends much differently based on their decisions and outlooks? submitted by /u/NomNomNomNomNomm
