Love is the rarest encounter.

Dear native englishb speakers, do the above sentences make sense? If not, please help correct. Thanks.

Answer

It makes full sense.  I'd consider 'friends are encountered', because it makes friends the object of the sentence in the same way they are the object of the first sentence.

Answer
