How Are You? ...Or.. Do You Have A Friend?

If someone is nice to you but never comes to where you live
it is a polite stranger

If someone comes where you live and thanks you for inviting
it is an acquaintance

If someone comes to where you live and says “I’m home”
it is a friend


If someone asks “how are you”
and wants to hear “fine”
it is a polite stranger

If someone asks “how are you” and listens how you are
and will wish you luck
it is an acquaintance

If someone asks “how are you” and wants to know how you are
and will interfere your life without you asking for that,
because whatever is happening to you he takes as happening to him
it is a friend
