From the article:
This is something I have long concurred with. I have more admiration for people when I find out that they have a lot of friends that don't look like them and come from the same socioeconomic background and neighborhood. If you live in a place that's particularly diverse and all the people you are close to look just like you, it seems a bit uncanny.
Back when I was doing online dating for example, if I was messaging a girl that wasn't black, I'd be much more likely to hit her up if I saw that she had a wide array of friends in her photos. Even if she was black, I'd prefer to see one that had different types of friends.

Having diverse set of friends leads to out-of-the-box thinking and an ability to branch out of one's comfort zone.
