Friends

This is a difficult subject for me to write. My concept of friends are different to other people. There are 6 category that i put them in.

1) Enemies - hate each other
2) Nobody - only talk once in a while
3) Classmates - only friends in school but not friends in the outside world
4) Friends - Friends in outside school and in school
5) Good friends - Share each other feelings and share our secrets
6) Best friends - have been good friends for a long period of time

To be honest, whenver i hear the word 'friend' being said to me, i always hear sarcastic in their voice.

Why can't people just be honest and tell you in the face that we are not friends.

Why do people lie? Is it to make themselves feel better?
