A friendship that presents as a yaar but consistently falls just short of the real thing — the person who shows up about 70% of the time, remembers some things but conveniently forgets the important ones, and whose loyalty is conditional in ways that only become visible when things actually get hard. A mid-yaar isn't fake and isn't an enemy; they're frustratingly medium. They're fine. They'll celebrate your wins but go quiet during losses. You keep them in your life because the good times are real, but you've quietly stopped relying on them for the stuff that matters.
I thought he was a real one but he's mid-yaar at best — nice when things are good, gone when they're not.
