Theory of Relative Friendship!

Prologue:

An atom is made up of a nucleus and protons. The nucleus is further surrounded by electrons which orbit the centre in a fixed orbit w.r.t. each other and do not cross each other's paths. Whenever the atom comes into the vicinity of a similar atom, it could steal/share the electrons of the neighboring atom. Now the orbits of these shared electrons are defined by the nuclei of both the atoms. Extrapolating this to several atoms with similar composition, a molecule and then a compound is formed, where the laws of gravitaiton prevail.

Inference:

The electrons are so positioned that they cannot drift away from the nucleus and neither can they crash into it until some external force is exerted on the atom, for the atomic structure to be stable. This reflects on the entire molecule, compound and then across the enitre element itself. "Universal Law of existence!"

Analogue:

A person has himself and his relatives. The person is further surrounded by friends who are within his/her reach and at certain distances and these friends are not interchangeable. Whenever the person comes into the vicinity of a similar person, they steal/share each other's friends. Now the distances are governed by the laws of friendship. Extending this fabric of friendship over various groups of people, a friend's circle(FC) or a mutual admiration society(MAS) is formed where the laws of attraction prevail.

Inference:

The friends are so positioned that far-away friends/ attractive strangers are brought into the satellite neighborhood(not into the home) of a person and similarly, close friends are also pushed out of the home of the person into the adjacent neighborhood so that a balance is maintained and the friendships sustain with suitable distances. This reflects on the entire FC or MAS where there is a force of similarity binding the fabric of society. "The law of Live & Let-live!"

Corollaries:

1. Social Network Algorithms are based exactly on this model. These networks are redefining and quantising the friendship quotient/structure. [U r not very far from friends, but u r not close to them either]

2. By this law, U cannot break the rules of networking by going away, even if u want to, and neither can u barge into a friend's privacy (for whatever reasons) at ur whim/fancy!

3. The friend could be on the 10th planet but he/she is as close as a scrap away, at any given time! Contrarlily, the friend cud be next door, but u need an appointment to meet him/her.

4. Bygone are the days of personal touch to a friendship, the in-things are the rules set by social networking.

5. V r writing and playing according to the rules of social networking, creating a real-time and buffered play-ground.

6. No one is a stranger anymore and nobody is personal anymore!

[Voila! There!!..I have tried to put in my pseudo-reality analysis here... OK, OK, I will not grill ur brains anymore... continue as u were.]
