Dear friend

The phrase “dear friend” is used as a reference to a person, generally an acquaintance. On the surface “dear friend” may imply a close relationship to the speaker, but in reality they barely know each other. Frequently, this is used in upper social circles to imply stronger social bonds to one another, beyond what actually exists. This phraseology helps the speaker facilitate the view that they are a closer member of the “dear friends” social circle than they really are.
This Thursday a dear friend is discussing their experience as a award winning documentary film maker.
