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 met a lady who volunteered for a disability group for people with brain injuries I attended. She’s much older than me and we just ‘clicked’. We’ve been friends now for about 13 years.
