    Everyone taking the mick needs to stop, to say you don't want friends is basically saying that you don't want to go through the pain or hassle of making friends just to lose them again, also friends can turn out not to be friends at all, I'm not sure whether you feel you do but hopefully you don't have trust issues which may be a reason? Remember you will always have friends that you can trust and be as close as you want to, you call them family. Mum dad, siblings whoever it may be, but nothing beats a good best friend you can tell anything to! Even things you won't be able to share with your mum and dad :) remember friends are friends for a reason, maybe if it takes you a long time to make them they will be worth it because they will know a lot about you :) everyone needs friends don't say that you don't want them because of the past :) never do something you'll regret :) good luck :)

    I feel like at a certain age people convince themselves that they're too old to make friends or rather they've gone through the experience and while they cherish it, they have no interest in re-living it. OP you don't sound old, but I think what I said applies. You had some amazing friends and got to experience what having good friends was like, and now that you have you don't really want to deal with it again. Maybe it's because you know that someday it will end, or maybe it's just a chore to talk to people nowadays. Either ways, its your life and if you don't want to make friends you don't have to. But I will say this though, life can get pretty lonely sometimes, and it's good to have someone to deal with it all.

    I have a friend disposal chute for sale. You don't even have to kill them first. The sixty foot drop and resinous "drowning" gum sees to that. After 100,000,000 years, you can have them back, preserved in amber.

    I can understand why you would say this but at the same time i would call you a coward.

    Many of my childhood friends grew up to be douchebags and then I met cooler people in my teens and twenties. Don't let your childhood friends discourage you. New friends seem weird at first, but you grow to love them and it's totally worth it.

    Perhaps loosing your childhood friends made you fearful to get new ones and that's absolutely normal. It hurts to loose close friends and it happens often enough.. You may think it's logical to say; hey why make new friends when i'm going to loose them sooner or later. But there is a brighter side to this, while your old friends are gone and nothing will erase their memories you will eventually make new friends. There are many people out there who feels just like you and may need a real friend. You should see the opportunities instead of rejecting everyone because of one bad experience.

    I agree with everyone here, bad things will happen and you can't just avoid them as a safety blanket to never get hurt again. What if you had a bad relationship but met someone insanely great later and loved him/her but then you remembered a silly rule made years ago that you would never date again? I doubt you would continue keeping that rule up. Everything is a risk, I'm sure you'll meet more great friends.

    Aw poor baby. Did the little baby lose some friendses?
    Being alone is the perfect solution, right? Why not go to bed, roll up in the covers, cover your head with pillows and stay there till you starve?
    Grow a pair!
