  1. Introduction

PLEASE READ THESE TERMS OF FRENDSHIP CAREFULLY. THIS IS A BINDING CONTRACT. Thank you for choosing to add Avaris Clari as a friend, here-on referred to as AC. When you are AC’s friend, you will be bound to these terms at all times, referred to as TOF.

These TOF are guidelines on all interactions with AC. While they aren’t strict, they exist to best maintain amiable relationships between the person seeking friendship, referred to as Friend, and AC.

  1. On being friends

While you choose to remain friends with AC, you are to remember AC is a very shy person. AC does not always pick up on subterfuge like mild flirting or sarcasm and is prone to worry about upsetting people. AC prefers direct responses when a Friend is upset with it.

AC may not reply for months somtimes and then send 20 messages in one day. AC forgets things easily, especially if interactions are rare. AC may also get hyperfixated on something and not talk about anything else for up to a year.

AC will sometimes attempt to compliment a Friend. This is almost never flirting and is AC’s attempts at not seeming selfish or only caring about itself.

Upon receiving a friend request, AC may not respond immediately and will be confused as AC is not used to people wanting to directly interact with it. This is normal and should not let you down. Sometimes it is best to offer up your reason for wanting to interact directly.

AC struggles with depression and some days will be a complete downer. Do not worry and do not offer condolences unless requested. AC tends to get more upset at people offering condolences than just talking to it, as it often it sees these as empty gestures.

Most memes are okay to send to AC. AC prefers to keep things safe-for-work however and while occasionally doesn’t mind horny and or thirsty jokes, will be uncomfortable if that’s all that’s shared.

Any Friend is welcome to talk to AC and if they are in AC’s area can address it to try to make plans to hang out. AC doesn’t get out much and appreciates these attempts at social interaction, but may talk too much in person.

The easiest way to get AC to open up is to ask about one of AC’s many shared interests, though a summary will be provided in the Appendix of Interests.

  1. Privacy notice

AC is a huge advocate for privacy. While it may mess up sometimes and share anecdotes when reminded of similar situations, AC does its best to not reveal any actual personal information about a Friend without permission.

  1. Cancelling friendship

If a Friend no longer desires friendship with AC, the Friend may cancel at any time by simply removing or blockng AC on any platform of interaction. No explanation is necessary and AC may be upset briefly but will move on as it has learned to in the past.
