Definition of Friendship:
Friendship is a personal relationship shared between each friend for the welfare of other, in other words, it is the relationship of trust, faith and concern for each other feelings. It is a relationship of mutual caring and intimacy among one another. A friend is one who knows you as a person and regards you for what you are and not what he or she is looking in a good friend. Best friend is one who accepts the good as well bad qualities of his friend and also takes an initiative in correcting and mending them. Friendship is a distinctive kind of concern for your friend; it is a relationship of immense faith and love for each other.
Friendship is all about how much you care and understand each other. It is a pure relationship, which would make your friend smile, feel good as to how much you love him and care for him. It is all about talking, listening and building up a strong relationship loyalty among each other. […] Friendship is not about merry-making and fun it involves equal loyalty from both the partners.
[…] How one should recognize your best friend the one who will understand your strengths and shortcomings and would be with you in all your good and bad phases of life. […]

Types of friends 
Acquaintance: a friend, but sharing of emotional ties isn't present. An example would be a coworker with whom you enjoy eating lunch or having coffee, but would not look to for emotional support.
Casual relationship or "friends with benefits": A sexual or near-sexual and emotional relationship between two people who don't expect or demand to share a formal romantic relationship. This can also refer to a "hook-up".
Comrade: Means "ally", "friend", or "colleague" in a military or political connotation. This is the feeling of affinity that draws people together in time of war or when people have a mutual enemy or even a common goal.
Open relationship: a relationship, usually between two people, that agree each partner is free to have sexual intercourse with others outside the relationship. When this agreement is made between a married couple, it's called an "open marriage".
Best friend; blood brother or sister; Family friend; Imaginary friend; Internet friend; Pen pal

made by myself


Miles: Changed the school because he had no friends and he hoped that he will get friends at CC. At CC he has some good friends and I think they are really special for him.

Alaska:  I’m sure that Alaska is very emotional and cares for the problems of her friends. But I also think that it is very heavy for her to show her feelings and build up a real relationship because of her problems with her family.

The Colonel:  He seems to be a little lukewarm but I think that Alaska and Miles are really important for him.

Takumi: There is not much said about Takumi and his friends or relationships to others in the book but I would say that he and Alaska are really good friends. But the scene where he tells Miles about Alaska and that she rats her friends let me think if he is a wrong friend or if he tries to protect Miles from Alaska.
