I see the profile page of bbPress combined with BuddyPress has a “friends” tab, but is there anyway or any plugin to have a “follow” feature that shows who you follow and who follows you?
As a feature, you would get email updates on who you follow.

if your using BuddyPress you can overwrite friends for followers
