Bob Muyskens asserts that non-blood relatives can become family through their actions and bonds.

“I think the inverse is true is that if you're not blood rated to someone you can become family through the bond that you make with them and through your actions”

Mark Fischbach defines a close friend as someone for whom one is willing to be significantly inconvenienced.

“a close friend is someone that you like call them up and be like I'm stranded an hour out of the city can you help and you go yes I will go dude doesn't matter what I'm doing I'm going that's close friend”

Friends should not interfere in each other's personal lives or romantic relationships unless explicitly asked to do so.

“You can't complain about her dogging on you about your dating if you go invite her into it all the time. It's none of her business.”

Expecting friends to spend thousands of dollars for a wedding or bachelorette party is a form of entitlement.

“you shouldn't expect people to want to pay thousands of dollars for your wedding yeah and i and i think that like at the end of the day like with this situation specifically it's if the girl who is throwing the bachelorette party if she wants to do exactly what she wants to do”
