"in my model, a friendship is a *unique* thing. (there& #39;s no "kind of friendship" like "kind of animal")
And, like all unique things, it can& #39;t be defined in terms of its *difference* from other things.
It& #39;s like trying to define "triangle" by saying it& #39;s not a square.

For me, it& #39;s like a friendship *is* a point in the relationship, and I& #39;m trying to define it as the entire line.

And I can "visualize" a friendship as a point. I can look at it in terms of its attributes.
But if I try to visualize the *relationship*, the actual *line*,
I get *zero*."
