The friendship can be classified as equal importance in terms of power.

Explanation:

In this context there are two friends one is Jakob and another is Phil. Both the friends make decision accordingly that is at the time of selection of food Phil makes the decision and on the other hand Jakob takes the decision at the time of selection of movies. Hence we can say that according to power both are getting equal importance and hence it is making their friendship very strong. In case of friendship proper understanding of the mentality is always required. One must not feel inferior when it comes to friendship.
