Requirements for bff/admirer (from afar)

I have a list in my head of all the people I really wish I were friends with in our school, so that when I passed them in the hallways I could wave and smile at them and they would respond in a like manner. Instead, I have to admire/desire from afar...

The list includes:
The cool Korean boy with the killer afro and style to match
The-4 foot 8 inches-hobbit-boy-with-hobbit-hair-and-girl-voice
The charming math teacher
The wild out of his mind loud white-haired Government teacher
The charming and attractive football player/genius hotshot
The small adorable skater kid who graduated last year (whenever I passed him in the hallway I had a frantic urge to gently place him in my pocket and keep him there, like a small pocket pet. Actually, I feel the same urge with subject #2.) 

The list goes on and on. I do realize that this may give some the accidental impression that I am a creepasaurus rex. I simply write what we are all thinking, really. I mean, lay on the charm and wittiness, throw in a foreign accent and a small stature, and you will be my best friend. Or at least I will hope/pretend you will one day be.

Jon, I am more that satisfied with the friends I have now. but see these are people that I just want to put in my pocket and observe! and I can't really do that with you guys, can I?

Hmmmm.... I'm short and have a UK accent - does that count?

Actually, I'm very intrigued about
the "4 foot 8 inches-hobbit-boy-with-hobbit-hair-and-girl-voice"

I suppose I'm 'hobit-curious' (!)

Does he have big hairy feet?
