What makes you interested in becoming another woman's friend, like what about her specifically makes you want to be friends?

I guess it's just a matter of shared interests or just certainly personalities gel better? Typically, the women that I've become closer to throughout my life are fun loving yet no nonsense, thick backbones, quick to take personal accountability, self assured types.
Right now, I'm in a busy mom phase of my life, but I try my best to maintain the bonds that I do have.

For me, I will notice something that I just find cool. One high school friend was the height of nerdiness and we just loved celebrating it. We would laugh about ourselves together and be perfectly fine with the fact that we'll never be the best dancer in the room or come in first at a track meet. She also told the corniest jokes (all very wholesome) and still finds the corniest, cutest memes and posts them on fb (when I share memes on here, manytimes, she found them first). The majority of my friends (all the ones in high school) read/still read classic novels like the ones on this list: BBC - The Big Read - Top 100 Books
Another high school friend of mine has homeschooled all her children (four!) and spent much of her youth growing up in Tehran (they fled and came to our high school when the Ayatollah overthrew the Shah of Iran in the late 70s). Her family had so many interesting stories and she is such a deep thinker. I could go on and on about another high school friend and a couple of college friends, one teacher, and some of the people I have met at PC too. I want to be friends with them because they have wonderful traits I admire and I enjoy when they are just being them--the unique people that they are....
