Answer:
The most acceptable zone with friends is A. Personal distance.
Explanation:
Edward T. Hall developed an idea known as Proxemics, which centers on the idea that every individual can use his/her space a certain way and the effects it can have on our social interaction, behavior, etc.
There can be 4 horizontal distances:
- Intimate: touching, embracing.
- Personal: interaction with close friends, family.
- Social: interaction with people one knows but is not that familiar with, such as coworkers.
- Public: with the general public.
In this case, when an individual has an encounter with good friends, he/she tends to stay in the personal distance. It would become an intimate distance if we are talking about a couple or really close friends but in this case, since it is most of the individual's friends, the interaction stays in the personal distance.
