Thinking about people

What defines whether we are a good person or a bad one? Is it the way we treat our friends and family or is it the way we treat our mere acquaintances or even enemies?
If the former - what if your friend behaves nicely enough to you but thinks you are a fool or a loser and does not trust your judgement one bit?
If the latter - are people obliged to be nice to everyone? Do you have to smile and be polite to people that are rude to you? Do you have to try to find common ground with everyone?
On the other hand it cannot work like my tribe good, the other tribe bad, let´s stab them in their backs, right?
Which makes me think that the boundaries can never be clear. And even when you figure them out for yourself, they will never match the boundaries that other people have created for themselves. In the end - situations necessarily lead to a mess, especially when someone judges others without applying the same standards to herself/himself.
