I met one of my best friends at school - sort of. We used to live by the same road so naturally we took the same bus home after school. We talked a lot at the bus stop and in the bus and eventually I invited him to visit me. And we still meet a couple of times a year and are in contact regularly.

One I met in high school and we soon became good friends. I have visited him twice I think. I consider this one as my unofficial psychologist, as I've had him cheer me up when things weren't all that well. He really understands my jokes more than anyone, or is good at pretending to understand, which both are good traits for a friend - especially the latter no matter how funny it sounds but it would be really akward if the other one would not grasp the joke. He's actually the opposite of me so spending time with him won't get boring.

That is, the circumstances - happening to be at the same bus stop or being in the same high school - pretty much dictate the forming of a friendship. Of course you have to get along too but you come across your true friends 'by accident' and step by step you will become true friends.

Most of my recently made friends in college were my roomies. I hung out a lot of them and then eventually met my roomies friends and became friends with them too. It's also really easy to make friends with people when you're sitting with them in classes 2-3 times a week.

In the past I've made a lot of friends from playing on soccer teams. In high school I played soccer and the people I met through that are my best friends to this day. I also made some buddies on soccer teams outside of school.

I know it sounds weird,but at times I just wish I could secretly drop in on peoples lives, just to get a better understanding of any knowledge they have,how they deal with other people in social interactions,see how a vast amount of people act alone and when there in a group and how they managed to succeed and do some really fantastic things in there life.

I don't care about any random person personally, just what I could learn from them to better myself.

Anyway, to be honest, I really don't have any true close friends.

I mean, sure, there are people that I see every now and then that could have qualified as friends, but the relationship with these people seems so weak that I'm not even sure if friends is even the right way to describe them.

often times, I find myself, isolated in some place, away from people and when I'm with people,interaction goes as far as what is necessary.

It feels like if there is to be any relationship at all with anyone, the effort has to come from the other person completely, otherwise I just don't see or communicate with them all that much.

That just don't feel that kind of attractive pull towards other people,to interact with them,to speak to them,to stay in contact with them.

I have found that any repeated contact with a person usually comes out of convenience or necessity.

when I look at my family, they are most likely the best friends I have got.

I would like to say that part of what keeps the relationship with them it me being with them is out of chance and convenience, but Idk, there also may be a little bit more to it, as it is not often that I find myself repeated returning to any single person or group.
