Friendalanche

the situation arising from a desire to invite one friend to an event which results in a social obligation to invite a large number of additional friends to said event

Inviting Smiley Sue means you have to invite Laughing Lisa, which then leads to inviting Debbie Downer. And if you invite Debbie Downer, you need to invite Smelly Steve. And so on and so on....

Example: "I would love to invite you to my party, Smiley Sue, but doing so would inevitably lead to a friendalanche."

friend jumping

When you introduce your friend to another friend, they hit it off and now they keep making plans without you, that's friend jumping.

I don't know if I should introduce Mary to Jen. That bitch is prone to friend jumping.

friend-dom

the act of dominating a close friend through use of benign psychological warfare so as to achieve an otherwise unlikely, mutually-oriented outcome

Penelope pulled a monster friend-dom by manipulating me into going to Huntington Beach...but it was actually so restorative to my mental health that I'm very glad she did.

hallway friend

Someone you know from one of your classes that you get along with, but arent really friends with. You would never hang out with them in public, but you dont mind talking to them in class and waving to them in the hallway when you see them. As shallow as this may sound, we all have at least one hallway friend.

Girl 1: Hey were going to the beach this weekend. Wanna come?

Girl 2: Fer sure.

Girl 1: You can invite your friend Jane if you want.

Girl 2: No way! I only know her because she was in my physics class. Shes just a hallway friend.
