15% of men don't have a close friend

[The Wall Is Undefeated!]

I'm not afraid to admit that I want a couple more friends.

As introverted as I am, even I get lonely.

There's nothing wrong with a dude having a few close (male) friends. It's only human.

Please be my best friend

My wife is my only close friend. I only talk to the few “friends” that I do have like twice a year.

Not surprising. Our system destroys social bonds. Overall this isn't good for society. Humans need each other. We are social creatures. And this is coming from an introvert.

 

[FukkaPaidEmail]

Extroverts are weird

 

[Da_Eggman]

This is a easily fixable problem.

I dunno about that

 

[Turk]

The closest friend I had I fell out with 3 years ago. I aint been close tom anyone since then

 

[Yinny]

Men shouldn't be alone is all I'll say.

I’ve got about 8.

4 from college (1 is my child’s godfather), 4 from childhood, and a couple OGs I met from just us always being at the bar.

I’m good. I believe I have a solid group of friends. I can talk to them about anything, we take trips, they ask about my baby girl, and they all do well for themselves. The OGs are my mentors.

No, that doesn't work like that. A partner is not a friend.

Think about just one small example. Say you want to quit your job to pursue your life dream. Maybe you always wanted to travel the world. You tell your friend about your plan. He will support you one hundred percent. Go do what makes you happy, he'll say. Work and money can always wait.

Now go tell your woman the same thing, she will be liable to murder you. How dare you quit your job, sacrifice financial stability, give up your career, to follow your stupid life dream, she will demand. What about me, what about us? You're so selfish, etc. She will fight you every step of the way.

This is not because women are bad or anything like that. That's not what I'm saying. What I am saying is that your relationship partner will never be your friend, because a relationship is not a friendship. You can walk out of your friends life anytime and walk straight back in when you please. As long as you explain to them before you leave that you are going to pursue your life dream, your friend will be fine. They'll support you even.

You can't do that with your relationship partner. A relationship is never about you, what's best for you, what makes you happy. Instead it's always about us, what's best for us. And that means compromise.

If your partner doesn't support you then I think that shouldn't be your girl. I would want somebody to tell me the truth over just blindly supporting me

No offense, but you need to find a better woman breh.

I haven't had friends since high school and I'm 31.

That's the last time I had any type of social life.

Yikes

 

[Admiral Kali]

nikkas who don't have a solid tight knit circle should NEVER be trusted.

Why is this ?

 

[semicko82]

Number is a lot higher. A lot of dudes lying to themselves or don’t know their “friend” is not a genuine friend. Most “friends” will fukk ya girl, steal from you, talk about you behind your back etc. acquaintances strictly with distance.

This
It's hard to do that friend shyt when most people are out for themselves
