A person known vaguely, like someone you worked on a science project with once, and never really spoke to again. Maybe you have some mutual friends, but you wouldn't really go out and hang out with that person on your own. Someone who you say hi to in the halls at school, or maybe say hello when you see each other in public. In the simplest definition, someone you know well enough to say hi to, but aren't exactly friends with.
Betty-OMG, did you go to Franny's party on Saturday?? It was the BOMB!
Edwina-I wasn't invited.
Betty-Why not? I thought you and Franny were friends.
Edwina-Sort of. I mean, we worked on that English project together a while back, but she's more of an acquaintance than a friend.
Betty-**shrugs** I'm gonna go get a cheesesteak. Wanna come?
Edwina-No thanks, I'm good.

Somebody you say hi to on a daily basis but don’t associate with in depth. Or somebody you might slightly dispise but you still keep on good terms with.

Acquaintance;
That one person you just say hi to in the hallways or in the bathroom. But that don’t mean you’re besties or you wanna have a sleep over with them. And if someone says you’re nothing more than an acquaintance than it means they want you to stay the fuck away from them bitch. Your pride may hurt but you gotta get over it and take what they said and leave the person alone.

“Bitch get the fuck away from me! Iont wanna be your friend can’t you get that through your thick ass head? We’re nothing more than Acquaintances point blank.”

An Acquaintance is someone who you see around and are definitely involved with, but you don't like them enough to call them a friend. Hugging them would be extremely awkward, and if you plan on hanging out with them bringing one of your actual friends with you is a must so things don't get boring, awkward, or silent.
Person 1: You know each other? How long have you been friends for?
Person 2: Oh no dude we're just acquaintances.
Person 1: You aren't friends?
Person 2: Nah man we don't hang out like that.

Acquaintance;
An Acquaintance is someone you know but really aren’t friends with. A person you wave to in the hallway or bathroom but that doesn’t mean you’re going to sleep over at their house or invite to a party or text them everyday. If someone calls you an Acquaintance that means you aren’t friends at all and you should take a hint bitch. Take it with your pride and stay the fuck away from them.

“Bitch we just acquaintances nothing more. Stop texting me everyday and stay the fuck away from me. Just cause I see you every day don’t mean I wanna be your bestie for life. Why can’t you get that through your thick ass head.”
