    I just ask. Friends don’t mind, and it’s a good moment to tell them you appreciate them as a friend.

      That’s the kind of question where almost everyone will give you the same answer.

      A friend will say you’re friends, because you are.
      Non-friends will say you’re friends; because either they want to take advantage, or don’t want to offend.

        People tend to answer honestly in my experience. Those who lied and became friends after a while, that’s just a friend gained.

        As for taking advantage, I guess that depends on the person. I’m not particularly vulnerable, as I set the same standards for friends and strangers.
