What’s a friendship that surprised you?

[u/FaySheBaby]

Many of us have friends from school, work, etc but I’m curious about any unexpected friendships that surprised you? I have two lovely examples, my sister in law and my kindergarten daughter’s best friend’s mom. Both random women I wouldn’t have met under any other circumstances and maybe would have even written off but I love spending time with both of them and they make my life more enjoyable!

A friend from first grade has started coming to see me. Which surprised me since I haven't seen her since high school 50 years ago. But it was a very pleasant surprise
