If someone makes a huge effort to befriend you, how likely are you to be responsive?
Sometimes I just can't drag myself away from work and out of my shell long enough to socialize, even though I usually have a good time when I do it. I think it is healthy and good to connect with one's fellows, but mostly the good ones. Yet sometimes I totally drop the ball on hanging out with people I really really like who are great people. And other times someone kinda sucky will be so aggressive about trying to be pals that I will end up hanging out with them even if they want to eat low end food and talk the dullest trash in the universe. Then again, I'm a workaholic.
If someone shows all the outward signs of trying to make friends, how likely are you to reject their overtures if they seem like they might have a bad secret agenda and how likely are you to at least give them a chance?
