Conversely, Nick is a well suited man. He doesn't have a lot of many, but has an education, and the socially networking to become a man like Gatsby. Even so, it's necessary for Nick to gain knowledge and experience from a man of a high stature (Gatsby), in order to become more successful
Consequently, we see that there are two people, after two different things, who can get these things from one another. This brings speculation to their friendship. A friendship that isn't entirely authentic. Even though it started as two neighbors, becoming acquaintances, the true reason they became friends was to use one another to get want they want.
I agree they did use each other so I do not think that they are truly friends in the sense that most people would see true friends as. I think that they are friends because they do not necessarily know that they are both mooching off each other.
