i think it is more commonly spelled as 'frenemy'.

(see http://www3.merriam-webster.com/...nt.php?id=2717)

There was an episode in Sex and the City using this word/concept as the theme of that particular episode. it was a good episode. do catch it if it's possible.

it's true, i'd personally experienced it and it hurts how superficial people can get at times... yet i suspected such shallow friendship frequently occurs amongst colleagues (especially those who needs your help to climb the corporate ladder)

What if they don't challenge your beliefs but change them to make it appear reasonable and sane yet are not. I think it is better to be evil.

Humblewarrior: Just promise me you won't bite!

Ryuu: Yes lor. Seriously, I don't understand why they wanna stick with you when they know you hate them so much!

Emma: Thanks for the pointer! I think I did watch that episode. Can't really recall now.

keatix: Familiar? Who?

Visithra: You go, girl!

Meow: Just have to be careful so that our asses won't get busted over nothing!

Shall, JoeC & Ann: Thanks!

Kampungkai: Aiseh, You so adorable. I don't think there is anything NOT NICE about you which makes you an enemy!

Vagus: If you have a double enemy - woah.. you are doomed, dude!

foodcrazee: Yeah! Be friends with food is better - you bite them, they can never bite you back! Heh!

K: Those are friends - they helped you to see if your beliefs is not that viable, yet stick to support you if you need them.
