Frequaintaince

A friend of mine asked a question today, which boils down to "what do you call someone who's not as familiar as a friend, but not as distant as an acquaintance?"

I suggested "frequaintance." It's got parts of "friend," "frequent" and "acquaintance." In terms of neologisms, it's pretty much perfect.

Remember, you heard it here first.

Damn! I guess you didn't hear it here first: Pink Fish Media: New Words. Oh well, at least I came up with it without knowing someone else had already done so. And the timing is surprisingly close. Maybe it's just something in the air.
