Do you have friends?

Well, those days are behind you. Check her inbox.

smooth, playa

 

[Hoof Hearted]

I've got one, nost seen him in ages though.

Weird to say but I only seem to feel lonely when i'm with other people. Prefer being on my own most of the time.

 

[JinKazama]

wow didn't realize the majority of sherdogers felt this way

[Fox by the Sea]

i am sure all my facebook friends are good friends of mine

 

[Frode Falch]

Yes. From work, training buddies, and family.

I guess i got some digital friends on sherdog as well.

 

[Tone C]

Yup, got several. Might have an issue if they ever get out of the basement though.

 

[blitzk]

Just a few but we do get together every 2 weeks or so.
I hang out mostly with my sister and her husband, big MMA fans. I visit my folks out of town every other weekend and I also watch the fights with my pops.

I do find it more and more difficult to hang out with my friends though, in part because they're all married and have kids (and I don't) so they don't have a lot of free time and also in part because we don't match as well as we used to.
People change and so do our interests and personalities and I have less interest in adapting to them, to the point where I prefer to do certain things by myself. I like my solitude but it'd be nice to have friends with similar interests I guess.

I feel very sad right now. I'm sorry there are so many of you that are alone. I didn't even know that was a thing.

I have a great group of friends. We all grew up together, won championships together, partied together. It's a tight group and we still get together all the time. Our kids are friends, we take trips together. I love these people and they'd do anything for me.

 

[machidafan99]

Friends who have your back

 

[JoeyJoeJoeJr]

I have one friend. Weve hung out 4 times in the past year

I don't remember making this, lol. I was looking for the "males have fewer friends" post.

I doubt most guys have the steady group of BFFs that they go to the bar with every weekend like in every TV sitcom, I certainly don't, but then again, I haven't really lived anywhere for too long.

I'm cool with my co-workers, most people seem to be friends with co-workers but mine are almost all women so I can only get so close to them from a socially acceptable standpoint.

I have a small group of pals, they live in a neighboring state, but come down during events and such. Between that, my wife's family, and my big family, I have enough people to socialize with.

You guys?

All I got out of this thread was: holy shit that Is alot of banned names. Add mine in 3...2..1..

But to your question, I think males tend to have a few friends growing up, then we lose the drive to make more later, sort of like lion prides. You make a few friends and roam together till the end

Lol, funny lion analogy but fair

It's better to have a strong core group, you don't need 1,000 sorta friend/acquaintances.

If you don't have some mfers that you can call at 3 am because of an emergency, what's the point?

Just my opinion.

 

[fingercuffs]

If so, how?

Want to swap Facebook official?

I will say I've lost a lot due to the pandemic. People I used to hang out with who I didn't because of lockdown...sounds gruesome but I kinda realised I maybe didn't need them. And husband isn't really social. I have to be very superficial friendly at work, I worked out today I'm okay with just him and I socially.

 

[Alphaboy]

Why do you need friends when you have Sherdog?

Facts

I feel like social media can have a effect on social life like porn with real sex. People get their social fix using FB or twitter so they have less urge to hang out.

I agree. There are tons of detrimental effects of social media, and I'm sure that's one of them.

Nope. My life long best friend and I work out twice a week together but that's it. I don't have time for friends, I don't have enough time for my kids.

Damn. Make time for your kids, bruh

Friends are for people too weak to stand alone

Sometimes they help you out with shit... and if you ever decide to get married and have a wedding, you're gonna need some groomsmen.

Friends? The lion does not surround himself with sheeps.

The befriend other lions, duh.

Lol, alright. I don't really go on anymore though.
