Do you have friends? I dont

I don’t have many friends either. I do like being alone though. It would be nice to have a couple more people in my life.

I’m lucky to have relatives, otherwise I’d be all alone. I guess if I’m ever without family nearby, I might have to learn to make friends.

I do have friends but most of the time I am so burnt out on socialization from work that I don’t really care about seeing them. I feel bad about it :disappointed:

i have regrets about how I broke up with all my old friends…I basically cut off all contact for a few years when I wanted to be by myself.

Now I’m feeling normal again and have no friends to hang out with, I’m too embarrassed to crawl back to my old friends, so I must make new friends.

I’m only friends with my cousins, my other friend left me. I helped out her ex with a project and my friend went nuts and defriended me, but irl. She still talks to her ex, but not to me. She was kind of selish, though, so I’ve decided it’s for the best.

I thought some coworkers were friends, but they don’t invite me to lunch with them, so I guess I was wrong. It actually kind of hit me this past week and it made me sad during work. I’ll just block out my emotions and develop a formal relationship with them, as opposed to acting friendly and trying to chat. I hate social alienation, but what can I do besides act calm and composed, and a little aloof?

I have some friends from high school that I don’t talk to but are on my Facebook. I generally talk to my 1st & 2nd cousins the most.

With people my age, they’d already be married and have kids. Most would have co-workers to discuss things during the day and in the evening spend time with the family. There wouldn’t be very much time for friends.

I forgot to tell my best friend I was going out of town for a month for a new job.

He called me at 620 am this morning to ask me if I wanted to go to a car show. I was sleeping.

It was 820 where I live so he didn’t mean to call me that early.

I didn’t tell everyone about the job because part of me thinks I may not be able to do it.

I have 3 friends I still see occasionally.

Your old friends would probably forgive you. Forget your foolish pride!

Don’t forget there is work to developing a friendship. Maybe you’re not ready for a friend.

From my perspective, when you find a significant other, you spend time with that person the most and not your friends. But if you do spend time with friends, it’s other couples that you and your significant other know.

maybe not…but at least a drinking buddy to take advantage of me…

I should probably see which of my old friends aren’t married yet, and go for it with one of them

That tells me at least you’re not fooling yourself.:grinning:

I have quite a few good friends on the internet and I love them all!

In real life though I have one but she doesn’t care about me anymore now that I’m useless.

I would say that I have two friends right now, although one of them is growing quite distant.

Never really had many friends. There was a time in my life where I felt I had the potential to have many friends then that was all taken away due to over stress, bad diet, bad home environment.

I enjoy cyber friendship. I have a group of Chinese Sz friends and we talk every day via QQ or WeChat. With cyber friendship you have more freedom. I usually go shopping and go for a walk on my own. This way I don’t have to catch up with the pace of my friends. And then I come back from the park or street and share something on internet.

I have a few friends but we hardly ever meet up… so sometimes it feels like I have no friends.

What are friends.
