To have friend or to not have friends

is it normal that I want more friends but I don't really trust people. at the first sign of then turning on me I just drop them. I dont really do the whole party thing because I don't drink a lot. I want friends who want to travel the world and learn new things. I feel like what I want doesn't exist. But I cant help it I'd rather not have any friends if I have to settle for people I can't trust or friends that are content. is that normal or am I asking for to much?
Sorry for my run on sentences

  • If you manage to make a unique true friend you're lucky, really. I have only two friends I can count on.

    Don't settle! You will eventually find what you seek when you least expect it.

    I'm the same way. And I've gotten further in life not settling for ppl that r going to keep me from getting where I want to be.

    Ull be happier this way because u didn't waste ur valuable time on ppl who do not see eye to eye with u

    U can sit at the bar with "company" cause they're not "friends" and just waste ur life away .. or you could go to Rome Italy France and what not and see the things u dreamed of. Chances of meeting someone who also loves admiring the Eiffel Tower will have something more appealing to talk to you about vs the ppl at the bar that r talking about who they fucked last week & what happened when they saw their ex yesterday

    I'm the same way. People don't understand that I'm not into partying or just having fun. They all think I'm messed up so I have no friends

    You sound secure in just being by yourself until you find the right person or persons that you feel compatible with. I've always been that way. For some reason this pisses people off. One of the reasons I'm so off the wall on this site: pisses people off. You sound very normal to me. Go for it!

    It depends on what kind of friends do you want and which ones you can find. I have had a huge experience with fake friends that have bullied me. I have had friends who will be nice, be kind, help you but talk about you behind your back and walk past you. I have had friends that start so much drama and put words in your mouth they screw your life over. But without friends, life will be boring believe me, and you'll maybe have a harder time trying to accept that you're alone but when you are alone you learn more on your own. You can watch other people and try to learn their perspective. With or without friends your still a great person and know who you are. But sometimes if you let let some people in your life they will make such a great impact it will affect you positively and negatively but the main thing is with or without friends your still amazing and it is your choice to choose anyone to be in your life. Trust is the key to everything but is used badly. Your not being picky your being cautious.
