Family and friends are close - for example, I am very close to my best friend - we see each other a lot and share a lot of interests.
She lives quite near to me, but not that close - maybe ten minutes drive.
Close is closer than near
- do not stand so close to me, you are invading my space.
Don't get to close, I have a cold.
The man standing near Susie is our manager Tom
Why is that man standing so close to Susie, are they in a relationship?
I hope this helps a bit.
