Is having friends overrated?

[optimisticzoomer]

At uni I had a decent friend group, and since we lived together or close to each other I would see them often. It was good but only when others were enthusiastic. Sometimes one friend and I would go round to the others' house and they wouldn't be receptive, and it would just set a negative mood

But since graduating, I haven't seen any of them. They have met a couple of times, but I didn't go as I didn't want to travel, nor go clubbing (which is what they always end up doing). We occasionally talk in a group chat, and I played Fortnite with a couple of them (but they've now stopped). I have only seen 1 friend from school twice in the last 11 months.

And yet I don't miss having friends. I enjoy being alone and feel most comfortable that way. I go to work, I see people there. I live with my parents. I use this forum. My life feels better now than when I was at uni and around people.

My mum just tried telling me to get a different job (again) and go out with friends more (can't she leave me alone?). She's always asking if I'm gonna see that 1 school friend I mentioned earlier... but why? I don't see the point in seeing "friends" irl. It doesn't benefit me. I don't like drinking alcohol, clubbing, one to one chatting unless it's over a game etc.

I'm doing great. And you know what would be even better? If my parents didn't try to pressure me with their ideals and act as tho what I'm doing is wrong. As I'm typing this I get a text from my mum with one of her "helpful" suggestions about jobs. It's not helpful. She knows we just spoke about this, and then always sends me a text trying to sweet talk me with some suggestion. It's just for her ego. Doesn't like me working security. Anyway, that wasn't relevant to the title but had some relevance to the previous paragraph

I'm young, but feel like an old fart. But is there anything wrong with that? Boomermaxxing is law

having friends is great, if u are in a bad mood they can cheer u up and u can cheer them up as well, tho finding true good friends is a hard thing to do, most lifelong friendships that i know of (including mine) usually started in early childhood, if you grow up with someone there is a big chance u become great at vibing together

A lot of friendships feel fake and transactional

It's good to have colleagues and stuff but don't take any of these "friendships" too seriously.

No having friends is good, even though i don't really have any close friends they can definitely be helpful in distracting your mind away from blackpill and all.

I'm way past my blackpill phase
Having friends can be good, but only if they aren't degenerates if you're gonna be hanging out with them. I have no interest in clubbing or alcohol like my friends

Clubbing is cuck activity same goes for drinking alcohol and most people aren't that degenerative. Make friends with nerds they are usually cool and better than fag normies.
