Transcript:
Phoebe: Dakota's weird, 'cause she's like... my friend who doesn't like me. Marigold: That is a kind of friendship? Phoebe: It's something. I'm not sure I like her, either, but I really seem to care if she likes me. Marigold: Friendship is complex. Phoebe: If by that you mean "stupid and annoying."

She/He is your friend if you can see past the “stupid and annoying”.

What about when someone likes you, and you like them, but you honestly can’t understand why they’d ever like you?

Complex, but magic too.

In other words, friendship is kinda like romantic love, only less stupid and annoying.

Yes, but it sounds like she’s starting to realize how pointless it is to want Dakota to like her. Besides, there’s far more point to her friendship with Marigold!

Dakota might just become a better friend if Phoebe would stop trying so hard.

Agree with Phoebe, as an old proverb says: Don’t look for a perfect friend, but look for a friendly friend.

@Night-Gaunt: How could anyone not like her? I’ve been with this strip since it’s debut and have yet to see anything I dislike about her. It’s only Dakota who doesn’t seem to like her.

Sadly, this sums up human friendships for your whole life, not just childhood. Animals are the best and truest friends any human will ever have.
