Title: Why don't I have hundreds...if not thousands of friends IRL?
Post by: splooge gook on November 04, 2014, 07:09:43 am
I'm statistically in the top first percentile, but I've only had 4 really close friends, 5 close friends, 2 gfs, 0 gifs and 0 replies

Fun fact: you can't physically have more than 140 true friends at once. Because your brain can't handle more.

That is entirely dependent on how many brain cells you have/your IQ

i knew someone who had almost 330 true friends (out of the 700 or so she added on fb). titties are GIVE ME ATTENTION bags

"Friends" typically = owners, in the same sense that holy men believe people are owned by their possessions. Troof.

everything's socially stratified but not everyone views human bonding as an S&M game, most(?)some(?) people are indifferent to what power they hold and are satisfied that way. but i see what you mean by control, because higher up = anxiety, lower = less fear of rejection = more easy to make friends with.

They feel inferior and thus, unlikely to communicate with you.

The 150 number, or Dunbar number, is an average estimation.
Some people get less than that and some people get more but overall, you can only get a friend close enough for roughly that number.

I've probably had 150 school friends over my life.

It's just hard these days. No real reason to have IRL friends when you can just Facebook or w/e to get your social interactions. Do you know how many people I've met that just want to smoke weed, ride bike, and check out cool places? One.
