Ive had informational/networking calls with some people in the past and would like to add them on LinkedIn to expand my network. I am just not sure what I should indicate our connection to be when sending the request. We didnt go to the same school, dont work at the same firm, didnt do any business together. I dont think theres an option for "acquaintance"

I usually just select friend. I don't think it really matters. In fact, I don't recall ever seeing what the person selected when I receive requests.
second this. not sure i am alerted if i was selected as a friend, colleague, former sexual partner, etc so it doesn't matter
