Ida considers Rhoda a good friend, even if sometimes she isn't sure what Rhoda thinks of her. Ida herself knows that she can get on the wrong side of her sometimes, especially if it has something to do with Basil *cough cough*.
In truth Rhoda would be the first person Ida would come to if there was serious juicy gossip going around but the last person she would go to if she needed a shoulder to cry on. I think their relationship works because Ida knows what Rho is like and doesn't take offence if she's bitchy to her. In fact part of their relationship is how Ida is usually annoying and ever too curious and Rhoda responds to that with bitchyness and sarcasm. True, Ida may be mad at the time but when she looks back on it she sees that there's always a reason. Most of the time anyway. And if there isn't? Well that's just Rhoda being Rhoda.
In a way she looks up to Rhoda (not that she'd ever admit it) because Rhoda has it all sorted out and always seems on top of things, knowing where she stands with people. Ida is more a play it by ear and try to be as friendly as possible person. True, it works but sometimes she wishes she could do what Rho does and not be as friendly but still be friends.
Oh, and then there's the shoes. Got to love Rho's shoes.
