FatalRain 108 March 13, 2014 Share March 13, 2014 If so, do you keep those new friends? How long do you tend to keep friends? Are you an introvert or an extrovert? As for me, I don't have the easiest time making new friends and lately it seems like when I do, they only talk to me for a month tops, and then disappear in some manner I had kept a best friend for over 10 years, but recently disconnected from them I'm definitely an introvert, especially when first meeting people however, once I get comfortable, I get very talkative ^^' 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SparklingSquirrels 21,349 March 13, 2014 Share March 13, 2014 No, I'm a very quiet person, and thus it takes me awhile to make new friends. My closest friends are my internet friends, since it seems easier for me to open up here on the internet. As for real life, I'm definitely and introvert, but I do like to stick with the friends I have. However, a couple of my old friends and I have fallen apart over the years, but I still try to talk to them occasionally. 2 ֍֎֍֎ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Messershmitt 289 March 13, 2014 Share March 13, 2014 no, i tend to shy away from people but if i end up talking to you im usually mean at first. because i cant trust people easily, and i have slight social anxiety issues. http://dascottishbrony.deviantart.com/ My DeviantArt Page.

SomariFeyWright 776 March 13, 2014 Share March 13, 2014 I'm quiet, and very socially awkward. That said, though, I don't have too difficult of a time making friends. ... Well, okay, that's a lie. The friends I have now are some scattered over the course of a couple years and I haven't even reached the five-person mark, but somehow or another, I've managed to make friends. I think it primarily revolves around the fact that we all share the common connection of being a bunch of geeky dorks with no real lives outside of the internet, video games, and each other. ... Mostly the internet. Awesome signature made by Tromino.

Deae Rising Shine~ 55,884 March 13, 2014 Share March 13, 2014 friends? Is that something you can eat? I think I'm to shy ... most of the time, I sit on my laptop or playing games I only get out, when I have to buy something, working, school, travel to my father etc. and that's not really much time, to find new friends So I don't have friends, except for internet, dunno, but I'm more open with everything here in the internet then in real life ...

I feel the same way It's easier to be myself online because if someone doesn't like me, I can get away from them easily and not have to feel their negative aura but when I know someone irl doesn't like me it's just....really hard to deal with ^^' no, i tend to shy away from people but if i end up talking to you im usually mean at first. because i cant trust people easily, and i have slight social anxiety issues.

NeedsMoreGoth 164 March 13, 2014 Share March 13, 2014 Yes! It's very hard for me to make true friends who I would sacrifice my life for. That's hard for everyone. However I make buddies really easily. Consider them people I like but I wouldn't sacrifice my life for them just yet. I don't really try to make buddies but I suppose that's what attracts them to me For all of you who think being hard at making friends is bad, you're wrong. All your feelings are part of who you are and your attitudes will attract different kinds of people. I wouldn't worry to much. Besides! This place is full of friendly people. You made some buddies by just leaving posts. So I have tons of buddies. And as you can tell by the size of this reply, I'm not afraid of talking a lot or sharing my feelings.

StarSwirlTheBearded 356 March 13, 2014 Share March 13, 2014 (edited) I do not have very many friends, and I only make about a friend a year. If so, do you keep those new friends? How long do you tend to keep friends? Are you an introvert or an extrovert? Half of friends I keep, the rest just fade out of my life and disappear. A year later, they are typically people I wouldn't want to be friends with in the first place. I keep them either for a very long time or for just a few months. I am strongly introverted. However, since I've become a brony a month ago, the bronies have got me thinking of actually trying to make friends. Given that many people hate me, I expect to have trouble with it, but not much.

AlicornAcolyte 254 March 13, 2014 Share March 13, 2014 Yeah, it's pretty hard to for me to make friends. I feel like I tend to rub people the wrong way. I'm not sure why. I suspect it has something to do with my dislike for small talk. I'd much rather discuss political philosophy or scientific principles. I'm definitely an introvert. I do actually derive the most satisfaction from staying in my room, contemplating theories and reading books. I do have a couple of friends, but mostly I have acquaintances who come and go in my life. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frostgage 7,976 March 13, 2014 Share March 13, 2014 (edited) It's not that I don't want to make friends, it's just not something that ever came naturally to me. Even on here, I don't think I've ever initiated a conversation. I hope people don't think I'm just rude, I promise that's not the case. I would be happy to talk to any of you.

Haha I certainly don't mind we're merely discussing the topic; nothing wrong there! it's not exactly a mood though it's just like...I don't know, I guess I changed I went from a social butterfly to a caterpillar back in it's cocoon @A@ It's not that I don't want to make friends, it's just not something that ever came naturally to me.

I only initiate conversation if I get a good vibe from someone but sometimes I'm mislead by those vibes It's somewhat rare for me to initiate conversation with someone anymore Unless it's in a setting like this, where they're replying to my thread haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zhortac 1,474 March 13, 2014 Share March 13, 2014 Apparently, in the last few years, I have a hard time. I have very few as it is, and making new ones seems to elude me. Feel free to add me on steam if you want to play something. Also don't be afraid to message and talk to me. I've had bad luck when I start a conversation, so I more then likely won't start one.

Spartan 433 March 13, 2014 Share March 13, 2014 I dont know how i make friends, i just stand around and talk to people around me. Eventually, we talk the night or day away.. its awesome.

Ribbonfree 2,383 March 13, 2014 Share March 13, 2014 It depends on the type of person. I'm generally friendly and outgoing, but funnily enough, in the presence of people like me (similarly shy, nerdy, also see your typical brony) it's a bit harder to open up for some reason. Too many shys spoil the soup I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
