As you get older, you realize that people with a large amount of friends are not enviable

[swaggyp1]

They find their comfort in having a large amount of people who they consider friends, but are more like friendly acquaintances

Friendship is fickle and fleeting .. one day you can be a friend, next day you’re an enemy or a stranger

Only family ties are guaranteed, since whether you have a disagreement or not, you’re still cousins, brothers, etc.

That’s why getting married and having kids is important - that is your family that you create

Your parents are the past and the present

Your children are the present and the future

Cousins, brothers, sisters, sons, daughters, grandchildren

as soon as society started to disregard family ties, it started crumbling

Family members are worth many amounts of friends, since kinship is guaranteed and can’t be broken as easily

as soon as society started to disregard family ties, it started crumbling

Families have been replaced with pathetic shit like “social circles”, “squads”, and “the boys”

its also important to note not all family have your best intentions in mind, not all want the best for you - some internet friend might relate to you and be a better friend than people youve known for a while irl or your relatives

e.g i told a cousin something confidential and he went and leaked it to my other cousin

It takes until 20 at the very minimum, but I’d say 25+ for most people

People don't know how fragile their friendships really are. I would say family is reliable only by blood not by actual relationship, or else nobody would hate their family, which many people obviously do.

Absolutely

That’s why it matters

Whether your relationship is good or bad .. you’re family whether you like it or not, and people have a vested interest in making sure their blood relatives are doing alright

Yeah for like 99% of human history family was all that mattered. Modern friendships are a recent invention
