Here's how long you need to hang out with someone to be "friends"
posted by @JonManuel -
There are so many levels of friendship.
A study published last month in the Journal of Social and Personal Relationships outlines a basic framework for how much time you need to spend with someone to bond:
- CASUAL FRIEND = 50 HOURS
- FRIEND = 90 HOURS
- CLOSE FRIEND = 200 HOURS
Surprised?
