→Friendship building skills
Friendships often have different levels based on trust and the strength of the feelings between those involved. A casual friendship, in which participants usually do not feel great amounts of affection towards each other, is often known as an acquaintanceship. In contrast, a relationship involving great depths of trust and warmth, often developed over a long period of time, is referred to as a close friendship, and its participants may be known as "best friends" (this term is somewhat inaccurate, as in modern society someone is able to have many best friends, thus negating the comparative adjective). At its peak, a close friendship is akin to [[love]], and indeed friendship is an important part of any monotonous relationship.
