Some people only refer to their childhood best friend as their "best friend", even if they don't keep in touch as much as they do with most of their newer friends.
As an adult, I find the term "best friend" to be slightly juvenile sounding. Instead, I like to use the terms "good friend", or "close friend". My fiance is my "best friend" now, but I'll be calling him "husband" soon.
How long does it take for friends to become best friends?

It depends on both people in the friendship.
