Difference between Friends and Acquaintances?
It’s very important to know about the ones you spend quality time and the ones you spend your time quantitatively. Quality always dominates quantity and it doesn’t matter with whom you are, its the matter just the way you are.
An acquaintance is the person whom we know and spend time occasionally knowing each other slightly and do not interact for a long time. Moreover, they are not supposed to help and easily break the bond during difficult situations.
On the Other hand, a friend is someone who is always there for you knowing all your little details you ever mention. The real buddies stick to your side during hard times like an octopus and keeps you climbing no matter what happens.
Can Acquaintances post on my wall?
Actually, there are two options. Either you can allow everyone to post on your time or simply no one. You need to choose one of them.
If you are thinking now that either they can see the posts in which you are tagged or not then ask from the person which is tagging you. If he/she has selected audience as his friends then it might not visible but if he/she selected public then everybody can see including acquaintances.
