I need a word that’s something in between friend and acquaintance. Something like super-acquaintance. Maybe I need to draw up a 2x2 to demonstrate why this is necessary. The word friend is almost too nebulous, and modernity has created new options for which we don’t have names

A super-acquaintance (again I need a better word) could be someone who I may have never met, who I may only have exchanged a couple of tweets with, but someone with whom I share a deep affinity for, a shared understanding. Micro-soulmate feels like it’s in the ballpark
