Man, I thought I was the only one.
I have 'friends', associates/accomplices to be precise. However I feel that all of them are not real 'friends' as the world might term it.
Friendship, according to society, is supposed to be a bond between two or more people who support each other and give a pleasant company, without any deep, intimate connection.
However this type of friendship is almost, I said almost, impossible these days as everyone is more concerned about looking out for themselves, regardless of how honest we be with them.
I have been forced to believe that true companionship between two people is quite rare to find (not counting intimate relationships). There are times when I yearn for friendship while at others I feel as if there is no point of socializing.
Regardless of what I think, humans are social beings. One can not survive without any form of support/assistance from another. In fact I've even gotten better at socializing and find it somewhat enjoyable, the company of others.
My advice to you is that even though you prefer solitude, like me, you should make an attempt at public interaction. I believe that you can find satisfaction in just talking to others every now and then and try to be in a group, just listen to what they say even if you don't get what they mean as you probably don't have anything better to do. This is what I do.
You might call it a little hypocritical of me to prefer solitude yet enjoy company XD.
P.S. At least keep online friends who have nothing to prove or hide so they are mostly, not always, honest with you. And don't go around trusting freely like an idiot, I'm referring to NB generally as trustworthy and others, well, I have no experience there.
