li'l friend

A shady, dismissive way to refer to someone's spouse or long-term partner, usually the second acquired after divorce or the death of the first, when you don't claim them, don't respect them, and know they're only tolerated because of their more powerful partner. It implies they're irrelevant without their spouse and temporary, and will disappear the moment their spouse dies or comes to their sense. You never refer to them as the "husband", "wife," or "partner", because they never earned their place. They will always be their little friend and will be referenced as such in the obituary.

High-maintenance friend

A high-maintenance friend is someone who needs intense, consistent time, emotional energy, and attention often. They frequently require constant reassurance, emotional support, and a safe space to be clingy. They need validation, immediate responsiveness, and priority status in your schedule. These people are not for those who cannot keep up, or give them that emotional contribution.

my enemy's enemy is my friend

a phrase taken out of The United States foreign policy, but meaning here:

as long as I have a common enemy with a given person, I can be friends with that person; I'll take the risk that this friend of mine might betray me later.
Jason: James my man, why the heck are you friends with Robert? didn't he convince you and Alison to break up and the took Alison's virginity anyways?

James: Listen, my enemy's enemy is my friend. What I mean is, Alison and I were already having relationship issue before Robert became a regular at the bar where she then worked. Not only that but Robert and I have a common enemy, whose name is Carl. Robert hates Carl cuz Carl stole his car. And I hate Robert because he borrowed money from me to pay rent on a stupid storage locker and never bothered paying me back.

Jason: so now the you and Robert want to gang up on Carl?

James: Don't know yet, but Robert and I are friends because we do have a common enemy.

Not only that but Robert and I had a common enemy, whose name is Carl, and we became friends before the whole affair with Alison simply Robert hates Carl because Carl stole his car. And I hate Carl because he borrowed money from me to pay rent on a stupid storage locker and never bothered paying me back.

Jason: so now the you and Robert want to gang up on Carl? and you don't care about Robert betraying you? wtf?

James: Don't know yet, but Robert and I became friends because we did have a common enemy, Carl. and I don't care about Robert's betrayal, because I took that risk when I became friends with him.

my enemy's enemy is my friend

a phrase (used in The United States foreign policy since the end of The Spanish-American War/Roosevelt Corollary) meaning :

as long as I (or my country) have a common enemy with a given person (or other country) I will take the risk that this friend (or allied country) of mine might later betray me.
Jason: James my man, I am doing a polit sci paper for school and am not sure what would be an appropriate epitome of the phrase my enemy's enemy is my friend.

James: The perfect epitome of this phrase would be Afghanistan. The United States and Afghanistan collaborated against The Soviet Union in 1979-1986 and then Afghanistan betrays The United States by fostering Al Quaeda.
