Maybe thats essagerated but... HOW many friends do YOU have
And... WHEN can you call a person a 'friend', if we interact here in CS for some years - arent we then some kind of friends ???
Did you ever meet a friend from a social media like CS ?!
Or do you think we are ONLY wasting time with WHOEVER is online ??!!
I do have some friends from online conversations!! I consider them just as good friends as in person friends. I do not have a lot of friends. But when I was 25 had more friends than I do now. I guess most of those people are still my friends. I have lost contact with most of them though [friends from college, and old neighborhoods for example].
In high school I had a friend from Denmark! She was an exchange student to our school
When you have friends you make yourself weak. You become a target. The biggest threat for a person its their so called friends. I myself have given up on the idea of ever making friends again. You just can't trust people these days. How many times have I spoken with someone thinking that what I say means sth to them? How many times out of the blue have they vanished without even a goodbye? How many times have I been deleted from Skype without any explaining whatsoever? How often do I receive a Whatsapp message? Try never. To hell with friends!

Cool, and I agree, I mean we need to use this cyber time to our advantage & get friends when we're online - also have few friends myself! Cool about your Danish exchange friend
I have a few very good friends in real life. Some since I was in primary school, and the others I picked up along the way (and some were when I was over 25 ). Friendship is very important to me. Real friends are better than anything in this world.
I am friendly with some CS people too. Many I have met, some yet to meet

Hey, easy now, I KNOW how you feel
People want to hear good & see you happy, so if for a period of time you're not so good etc., they will retire - thats what I've seen at least!!!
Bottom line for me; I need to show myself xtremely happy when I want to meet new ppl - and thats so exhausting & false that I now just expect nothing & then get very surprised if I get a new friend, human relations are not straight forward, agree
I DO however think that a lot of us in here are friends & I wanna build on that, so cheer up pls.

Friends are the best, I agree Molly & I would love for some of us CS'ers to meet up some day
The people we meet here are social media acquaintances, not friends.....JMO.
I have only had two friends in my life. One I met in my 30's and one I met in my 60's. I wouldn't have it any other way. Everyone else is an acquaintance.

mollybaby: The only way to meet people is to arrange it.
Either you go to their country try, or they go to yours.
Simple
A few days in Ireland could be arranged; I got 2 roomies in my 3 room appartment, so cant invite you to stay at my place, but you should also come & see Copenhagen in summer

I have had some great times with what you call 'acquaintances '
I have stayed in their houses, they have stayed in mine. We have had fun nights out. I've gone to the funeral of one of their parents. We chat regularly. I call that more than acquaintances.
I have quite a few friends in the real world......not as many as molly on here......regards C/S......who no doubt...has found out......that most who have invited her over....to share their cultrule way of life......who..are in fact riddled with the pox....but being a wise woman ....has always said : no thankyou...I,mmm busy at the moment.... ...helloooo molly, your friend truheart..xxx

You know is not a matter of quantity but quality so even if you have only one good friend your rock.Look on bright side; false and wrong people did you a favour to leave and not waist more of your time so that righ people can enter.

I completely agree with this ^^^^
I find social gatherings extremely exhausting. Having to pretend one is happy when one is not sucks. But if you don't do it people think you are bitter.
Perhaps some of us are meant to be lonely. I dunno.
