Professional Friend Hopper

Someone who doesn't want any of the commitments of friendship but wants to reap all the rewards that come with having that or those friends. They're never there when you need them but never have a problem asking you for things or help. They're in the "friendship" for all the wrong reasons.
"Have you ever noticed how none of their friends remain friends for very long? Like they may know a lot of people and talk to a lot of people but they never hang out anymore?"
Only professional friend hoppers jump from group to group or person to person like that.

cold in my professions, warm in my friendships 

a letter that alexander hamilton wrote to john laurens in april 1779. the ultimate lams letter (laurens x hamilton)

hamilton’s son later found this letter and had to censor parts of it because it was so inappropriate
person 1: omg lams is so cute
person 2: have you seen The Letter?
person 1: what no?
person 2: hamilton wrote a letter to laurens and its like the ultimate lams proof
person 1: what does it say?
person 2: “cold in my professions, warm in my friendships, i wish, my dear laurens, that it may be possible, through action rather than words, to convince you that i love you.” and then later it says “you should not have taken advantage of my sensibilities to steal into my affections without my consent.”
person 1: omg so they actually did love each other?
person 2: yup.

Person with old fashioned ideas which he is unwilling to change: Come to the disco and stop being such an old fogey!
You think me an old fogeyand an old tory, his thoughtful voice said. I saw three generations since O’Connel’s time. I remember the famine. Do you know that the orange lodges agitated for repeal of the union twenty years before O’Connel did or before the prelates of your communion denounced him as a demagogue? You fenians forget some things. (James Joyce, Ulysses. Penguin Books,1992. p. 38)
