Did anyone make lists on the internet before Buzzfeed or did they invent that? These are things I find invaluable in my collective friendships. You probably already have the people you choose to talk about X and the different person you speak to about Y, and that’s based on the responses you’ve come to expect from them individually less than their specific knowledge base. Though of course having a friend you go to about baking questions or for their knowledge on first aid is awesome too.
I forgot to mention the skill of reflection - when a friend can say back to you what they’re hearing and give you a fresh perspective on yourself through hearing your own words.
