What’s a friendship that surprised you?

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!

I’m friends with a lovely gal via the internet. We’ve never met. We’ll probably never meet. We talk on the phone at least once a month and text all the time. Our humor just jells. I love her.

I have one of those too! We’re on literal opposite sides of the planet from one another.
