How many friends do you have?

Friends = Dunno (i don't freaking know the difference anymore. ><)
Acquaintances = More than 100 (lol)

Lol. Friends...I have many acquaintances. There are people in my school who I'm a bit 'buddy-buddy' with, not really friends, but just hang out during lunch breaks. (So if they're like mysteriously gone one day, I'll die from the awkwardness of bein' alone. Not that I don't die from it at least 2-3 days per week.) The only two best friends I had in my whole damn life were during my elementary school years, but we don't really talk much now. (Different schools now. -sigh-)

I know that havin' a social life is somewhat important for my sanity in my later older years, but I find it really hard now to make a decent friend who won't leave/ignore me just because I'm quiet beyond normal (I swear I will try to talk to you more often, but i definitely need some time), and gets to know me a bit better. (I have very fierce loyalty due to my SA, so...if i'm your friend, I will treat you as you're my entire world!)

Also, I'm a bit stunned other SA people like me had a decent number of friends (to me, anyways) Hmm. :)
 
Updated: i now have one friend, my ex girlfriend i split up with a few months back. She is actually coming round in an hour. Guess whos getting lucky ;)

Zero for everything. It's so hard to make them that i've just accepted it won't happen. I do make the effort, everyone ignores me. What else can you do? I don't look forward to dying alone, but it is what it is in this cruel world. But you guys with even 2 or 3 are incredibly lucky.

zero :(
I have to admit, I find it comforting that a lot of people here don't have any friends either.

I was thinking the same thing, im humbled that people are in similar situations, sometimes you think are the only one, which is not the case at all. I feel very comfortable in this forum, as i can relate to it all so well.
 
I'm glad I'm not the only one with zero friends. I'm just so lonely without anyone to talk too. I feel like I'm a bad person or strange cuz I can't have one person to like me. If anyone wants to chat with me, pm me. I can't even find a friend online yet.
 
There are many people I socialize with, but I'm not sure how many of them I'd consider my friend. I'd be willing to say around five people are my true friends.

Three in real life. And a few really good online ones that are just as good as the real thing to me.
 
Seeing all these posts makes me feel lucky that I have 2 very good buddies in real life. Aside from them there's my brother (he's only a year younger than me and we get along amazingly for the most part) and another guy who I hang out with sometimes but I wouldn't consider him a "good" friend or anything.

I have two back home (Colorado), one in South America (Colombia last I heard from him, but he'll be back in CO later this month), and no friends here (Georgia), but I have two people that I really like a lot and want to be friends with but I still get really nervous around them so I don't really talk to them much.
 
0.
Which makes it so difficult because I love most people.
It's them that just doesn't want to have anything to do with me because I'm too much of a downer. No respect, no friends.

I got one friend and its God. Everyone treats me like im koo koo and they just hurl insults my way ususally. Besides that I guess the only friend I have is my Mother everyone else is gone or has forgotten me I think and so pretty much I am alone all the time.

I'm young and I'm still terrible at making friends. I have 3 friend-ish people but we're really not close. Maybe if I add them all together they'd equal a friend. I have hope for the future though. Maybe you should join a club. That's where I met two of my friend-ish people.

I consider a friend someone who you can speak to whenever, someone who you go shopping or drinking or whatever you like with. Basically somone who you can hang with, well i have zero. All i have is my family, it can get so lonely sometimes. I had my cat Tyler since my problems started around 8 years ago and he died last year. So you can imagine how sad i felt, he was always there for a cuddle when i felt lonely. I got a kitten a month after as i was so lonely. She's great and we are still bonding.
