    I would make 1 table in mysql “Friends”
    Each friend request would INSERT INTO Friends 2 users (the requester and the requestee) and then you can have another colum called accepted which can be 0 or 1 (0=default/pending) (1=accepted).
    You’ll have to notify the requestee somehow, if they accept you turn accepted to 1 and add a friend request from the requestee with accepted ==1, and if they reject you can delete that row.
    I’m sure theres a much more effecient way to do it, but as far as simplicity I think that’s about as simple as it gets.

    to get the friends of user A? just check the database for all FROM friends where accepted == 1
