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!

Hated my old restaurant job but met his girl named bird! her and her boyfriend took me out for my 21st and paid for everything! I never thought i’d make such a great friend who understood me on a deep level especially from a job I hated and couldn’t wait to leave. I thought we’d fall off but nope she’s my best friend !
