Is it normal i always choose friends who are fun?

When I choose a friend I often will pick the most interesting or most enjoyable and fun person you can be around. This often means that the person is dangerous, Mentally unstable, dysfunctional or a danger to society.

However it is boring talking to some one who is a model person but is a bore and I have nothing in common with. If I happen to know some one very smart that I like and someone who is constantly thrill seeking and outgoing I would be more attracted to the person who is fun all the time and is very exciting.

Most of the friends I make do not stay friends and they end up leaving but most of the norms I meet do nothing but talk about football or are regular church goers and only talk about god.

Not that I have a issue with god but was never into football and I do not care about church enough to keep a conversation with these people. To be honest I feel like I am talking to my grandmother but I have more fun talking to my grandmother next to these people.

I like someone who thinks about something beside sports or church. This does not help me at all in life but I can not seem to stop the habit. Any advise to make productive friends that do not bore me to tears.

    It is normal to choose friends who are fun. I don't, but I think I understand why someone would you that.

    Well I dunno.. I don't have any friends who talk football or church. Those aren't the type of people I attract. Especially football. I don't like football.

    I have the same, my friends are all idiots or just completely rediculous, and I think it's great. they might not always have the best influence, but at least they always have something to say and are just fun to be around and that's what's important.

    That makes sense. The common denominator amongst all of my friends is a liberal mindset to alternative lifestyles that are not their own. To me, that makes them fun to be around. Other than that, they are all very different in terms of personality, interests and beliefs.

    Fun is a rather subjective term. I don't have many friends who talk about sports or church but they aren't exactly "dangerous" people. Okay, some sports. In fact, we tend to think those who only talk about church and football to be the dangerous ones.

    Meet people in interesting places where you are more likely to find interesting people. From what it sounds like you only talk to people at church or football games. Or you only talk to people who are over 50.

      First your age range is completely off. I also never said I only talk to those type of people. I already stated I find those people boring. I look for interesting people who are not all about church or football. Not that I mind either but when that is all they talk about I can not be around that person.

    Find friends who are productive, yet mentally unstable, like me.

    Wait... are you saying that if you don't talk about sports or church... you are "dangerous, Mentally unstable, dysfunctional or a danger to society"?

    That is very interesting. I must be the public enemy in that case.

    Anyway, people who talk about those things make me want to cut my ears off with a spoon! It's that painful.

    Most of my friends have a common trait with me, and most certainly a common interest. Whether it's food, football, politics, music, or life itself. They also have interests that engage me less like reality TV and money. But we still talk about that stuff. I've had some friends where we had no common interests whatsoever and I have to admit to being bored at times.
