3. Friendship of the good.
1) Friendship of utility
In this type of friendship where people are on friendly terms mainly due to the benefits each other brings to the table.
eg: Business partners, colleagues etc.
2) Friendship of pleasure
Here people find each other because of the enjoyment it brings.
