To enjoy people in the world who share either some of the same interests as you, or similar point of view, or - if you've really found yourself a good one - both! Also, to not be lonely. Loneliness is a terrible thing that can eat away at your soul. You sound like maybe you need a few?

as for the general topic... nothing. if it happens, it happens. but it's not like I would actively go out of my way and seek them as I think we sort of get used to our routines for the most part and for some that might mean interacting with a fair amount of people but I imagine in today's world a fair amount of people are probably a lot more isolated than they used to be given modern technology etc. XcalatëThey can't be THAT bad, right? ; I could understand that most people might be a bit so-so but I would not label them "can't stand them" level as in that regard I would say most people are alright enough even though I definitely would not trust the easy majority of people because I think it's pretty safe to say most people just don't really care about other people that much (at least it seems this way) as they pretty much have a small amount of people they are closer to (either family or some friends) and then it's "just another person" sort of thing to them. with that said... everyone I am closer to basically boils down to family(pretty much just my moms side of the family though) as outside of them, I generally avoid people. but I suspect some of that is because of social anxiety as someone I am not around all that much I generally don't feel comfortable around them etc and feel more relaxed once they are gone etc.

Honestly, I don't have much motivation to make friends. If somebody is seeking out friendship with me, I'll go along with it to an extent, but I'm almost always reacting to interaction rather than initiating it.

what motivates you to make friends? maybe you don't have any or want any? do you only have online friends and no one offline? Over the course of my 20s into my early 50s, generally sex My last 15 years, exclusively sex. Not that I'm attacking women, but if try to make friends now, it's always female, in an attempt to get laid (somewhere down the line). Late bloomer, huh?

1) it's fun
2) it's healthy (people with friends are generally happier and healthier than those without.)
3) it's beneficial (still in spite of the Internet, word of mouth is a great source of information. And friends will do favors for friends they won't do for anybody else.)

Is there any point to making new friends in this day and age? It feels like we are in the endgame of life, so making new friends now seems kind of pointless, since you miss all the previous experiences and development that you'd get with an old friend who you've known for a long time. Starting from scratch in 2018 doesn't make sense to me. I sure hope I'm wrong though and these days can still be looked back on in the future as "those days" but it sure doesn't feel that way now. Does anyone know what I mean? I don't think I'm explaining it very well. It's hard to put into words. Waiting.
