It's wierd with me, I'm like the guy everyone knows becausethroughout the year, I made friends with pretty much all the different groups in year 7, and this year, I've found it hardto make friends I truly call great friends.

My friends who I will never ge sick of consist of... Damo, Brandon, James, Jake, Ryan, Jeremy, Ash and Rhiannon. I have ALOT of people I hang around with, I used to range from around... 40-80 people, but ever since I met ash<3 I found out they're a bunch of wankers. You're always guna meet c*nts, you're always gunna have to put up with ignorant, unfunny, stupid bastards. But I foundthats the key to making friends, just tolerate everyone.

How many friends do you have? Is that enough, too little, do you care? How do you find maintaining those friendships, a strain or a pleasure?


hmm, friends that i see or talk to on the phone once a month : about 4-5 depending how often I go out that month
then there's my husband and a group of 7 mommies that I have been seeing once a week for the last 10 months...

and yes, what you said about humans being that pathetic to need interaction is exactly why and apparantly why you are here :)

I have a few good friends, but I dont see them all that often, because if i'm not working, i'm skiing. They dont ski so....

aside from that, I meet people every time I go skiing, so durring the winter, most of the socializing I do is on the ski hill. Which suits me just fine, skiers and boarders are good people

I only have 3-4 good friends (and they're all 20-30 years older than I am)
My other friends are more like associates, I live with 5 other people and at least 23 and a half hours of each day I would prefer not to talk to them.
They all think I'm an *******.

I have 3 "real friends" but I'm a very talkative person and would willingly socialize with just about anyone.

I decided I had to share my amusing conversation with my friend. This is why I'm friends with skiers, they're an entertaining bunch

And putting effort into relationships is really not my kind of thing, I want everything to come easy and naturally or I'd rather not have it at all.

oh gawd, i totally agree with you, there. i have the same problem in dating relationships. once i get to know a person, the excitement is gone and i totally lose interest. and i dont even feel bad about it! i know i should..

Real life interaction is a lot more different than internet communication.

I wonder what a psychologist would have to say about us. :D

I'd say I have about 6 close friends in Birmingham who I hang around with most of the time and whenever we go out to pubs, clubs or the cinema, it's with each other. There's about 30 other people who I could call 'associates' and who, with almost no exception, I get on well with but whom don't get much inclusion in my social plans.

In total, I've probably spoken to less than 100 people in this city (if you exclude shop assistants), so I'd say my ratio of talking:befriending people is very high. People tend to like me a lot in person, as I come across as very sweet, innocent and friendly.

Gregarious people are a mystery to me.
