I'm seriously in my thirties

If you're a girl: emotional support and endless, insipid gossiping.

If you're a guy: competitive assholes who will backstab you if you give them the chance, but you can do much worse.

Usually someone you can spend time with who shares some sort of "interest" Or speak to on an emotional level like you might your family.

its pretty nice. I had some friends over tonight for ultron, kinda becoming a weekly guys night routine with a movie or an outting.

one friend in particular stayed after and we talked about life. hes a kissless virgin and his self worth is tied to his hobby, and hes worried he'll never be truly great. the only way he can imagine himself getting a woman is just succeeding and basically scoring a groupie of sorts.

i was happy that i was able to hug him for an uncomfortably long time.

Seems like you have shitty friends.

Someone you can count on. And they can count on you too.

Friends come in all shapes and sizes. Some can be closer than family, others can be barely more than acquaintances.

With good friends, you can talk things out. But in my experience, there's never one friend you can discuss everything with. So you have to have a bunch of good friends you can lay your different shit onto.

it's the exact opposite

Friends are a waste of time
