There's a new system for creating buddy lists on your site. It's light weight and dependent upon Flag module. It's called Flag Friend.

While there are already a couple of modules out there that provide a user relationship or buddy list functionality, I was tasked to come up with a bare minimum system that utilized our current setup without adding a lot of overhead. I had already replaced Views Bookmark and Flag Content with Flag module on our platform and there had already been mention of the concept of reciprocity for flags to come up with a way to create an authorized relationship system using Flag module's API, so I dove in.
