I'm pretty easygoing and can get along well with others, but I seem to detach myself from others somehow. Probably because in my opinion, I don't share anything in common with them. That's why I don't have anyone I can call a good/best friend. But what creates a difference between a normal friend and best friend anyway?

PS: I'm extremely sorry if this is a stupid question...*whimper*

For me at least, a normal friend is the one I usually spend most of my time with (although sometimes I don't get to choose so) and have an average discussion about relatively uninteresting subjects, while a best friend, on the other hand, is the one I spend little time with (and wish I'd spent more) while freely debating over topics that are most likely going to end up with both of us more confused than we were before. That's a difference I'd dare call vital, because it's so much easier to get tired enough of normal friends, you always think you know everything about them and they're no longer providing a satisfactory presence.

I hardly see the debate potential here as I feel those topics are too broad. Moved to General Discussion.

Friends is when one of you walks in the other's footprints in the dark.
Best friends is when you stand side by side and make them together.

Friends are just people who get I along with and talk to alot...
Best/Good friends are people who I spend most my time with, who I trust the most and talk about more personal stuff than normal friends..

What was that one with the funeral and deleting the history pages?

Anyway, to me there's no deep meaning to how to define friends and 'best' friends. Friends are people you hangout with, 'best' friends are people you hang out with.

If you ask me, a best friend is someone you don't have to worry about pleasing. You can be completely open and free around them because you know that they have already fully accepted who you are and the way you act. Even though they know all of your faults, and you theirs, you can still have great times enjoying each other's company.

Also best friends go out of their way to screw with you...
in the most loving way possible.

Things like:

Friends - "Hey, man!"
Best friends - "HEY, MOTHERFUCKING CUNT WHAT'S UP!"

or...

Friends - *helps you with the grocery store*
Best friends - *throws the grocery bag and gives you a middle finger*

...are the things I hardly disagree. A best friend is the one you usually have fun with although there are times you tease each other. But the things I mentioned above is false. Yeah, a friend will support you at all times and will laugh along with you, but a best friend will go with you with a sleepover and sleep until 7 am playing video games and fapping to strange Maria Ozawa porn and anime hentai. And what a friend does is x2 to what best friends does.

Friends Go when you cry...
Best friends cry when you go...

That was number 1

Best friends call you noobs or idiots or crazy
Friends call you awsome or Handsome.

That was number 2

Friends give you bananas,apples,fruits and those stuff.
Best friends give you PS3 Or PS4 or whatever you ask for.

That was number 3
