In my mind there is a difference between a friend and an acquaintance. One or two friends is more than enough. A friend is a confidant, someone I can run my heart past, share my hurts and worries. Anyone else is an acquaintance, nothing wrong with them, I walk with them and sometimes even going fishing with acquaintances and enjoy their company although that is getting strained (lefties).
