Why would an acquaintance pay another acquaintance much attention, and why would an acquaintance want attention from an acquaintance in the first place?Everything happens for a reason, and there is a reason two acquaintances aren't close like friends, so sometimes things are better left alone than intervened with. Attention seekers are the ones who don't want people to ignore them, or to be left alone to themselves.

Someone you played on a little league team with or against (or went to the same school for a few years), but never did they go to your birthday party or you to theirs would be an acquaintance, someone you knew of, but didn't actually know well, and vice versa. Someone that you work with that hasn't met your family or friends, someone you hardly know, and vice versa.
He/she was an acquaintance, which was usually a neutral term for somebody that was not a friend or an enemy, but just a guy/girl that you were aware of his/her existence, and didn't pretend not to be, but not much else about the person.

Since my right hand was boring and so familiar, I finally had to give myself an acquaintance to get off last night.

"acquainted with someone" means to get to know somebody. You meet a person and got to know this person so you became acquainted with that person.
Hey mom, yesterday I went through downtown and became acquainted with a very funny person named Jack.

1) Someone who is one click above a total stranger, someone that you just know their name, but nor very well or that close.
2) Typically people that you see at work or at school that you never bother to see outside of those circumstances.
3) Typically your friend's friends that you run in to at a party or going out.
4) Not such a bad thing because at least they're not going to bother you or pressure you asking for favors or money to borrow.

1) 96.4 % of your "friends" on MySpace
91.8 % of your "friends" on Facebook
= 100% acquaintance
2) Jenny from you Trignometry class who is ever so helpful but you have excuse for her every weekend because she is fat
3) Larry and John, your cubicle partners at work. You have discussed 2008 Election and NFL Draft with these guys and shared Coca-Cola in the breakroom 9 months ago but fuck these fat fucks.
4) Your cousin Vinny. You never return his call, he comes over to your house only because his parents brings his sorry ass. You hang out with him because you're forced to and he is like a 5th wheel. You can't wait until he is gone and you're smiling at him as you're saying good bye simply because you are happy that he is outta here!

Towards the end of a full day of flapping to snuf videos I attempted to finish with the stranger before realizing I had already used this move around noon which qualified my final round as the acquaintance.
