I don’t think people really ask to be friends… in my case it just sort of happens because you spend time together and it becomes evident that you’re friends

I guess I meant when you’ve become friends enough that you ask for someone’s number. That’s my bad

Also i get that it’s evident to most people once you’re hanging out for a while, but it’s likely truly impossible for me to understand who is just a person i exist nearby a lot with and who is my friend. Idk

Oh, I think the exchange of numbers typically comes naturally, when you decide to meet up and it seems practical to exchange numbers in order to plan it or be sure you arrive at the same time/place. There’s not really a ceremony or breakthrough to it, in my opinion.

I think the distinction is kind of fuzzy too, but broadly speaking, I would say a friend is someone that you actively enjoy spending time with, and/or intentionally try to spend time with. (this could be time in person or over some kind of communication)
