[quote author="woopsicle" date="1192792593"]So, if bob is a friend of jane.. does that mean jane is a friend of bob's?

Friends table
---------------
Person_id = bob | Friend_of = jane
Person_id = jane | Friend_of = bob

So with the first way you mention xwero, two records for each friendship are required.

I have to say I have never really looked into a 'friends' system but this seems a bit strange.[/quote]

It's not strange bob is a friend of jane but jane doesn't have to be a friend of bob. This gives people the freedom to choose their friends.
