or a few close ones? Or somewhere in between? I'm kind of a loner & like to have a few friends to hang out with once in awhile, but that's about it. How 'bout you?

I've got a few close ones mainly. I guess I've got some casual ones too but mainly close ones. I don't hang out though with them but on rare occasions. Most of my time is spent with my hubby when he's not working.

Hi gwendovere! Actually I prefer having my close friends whom I can trust to hang out with. I really don't like casual friendship because sometimes they are not for real. But if it is for just a night of good and clean fun, then that is alright. I guess, I just don't trust easily nowadays because I got burn with so called friends before. However, that is not the case for most. Just my thoughts my friend. Take care and have a nice day!

In the beginning all are casual friends. Because one cannot understand a friend in a day or two. When the stand the test of the time, they get upgraded as close friends. If the nature of a person is not udnerstood, then he remains as casual friend.

I am the same way a loner. I have a few friends that come see me or call me and I go see them. I like time to myself though also.

I like one or two close friends that i like to keep in touch with and then a few friends that are either online or that we can socialise with now and then.

I like having a few close friends, by far! Of course, I don't mind having some casual friends, but I will always prefer the ones that are closest to me! They are who you turn to when you need help, and they are the ones who will always gladly give it, no matter what. Casual friends, you usually get the help when they can give it.

I don't like to have lots of casual friends because that makes me feel very artificial. I believe in having lesser friends, but the ones who are true and don't bother your space and privacy and also respect your individuality. Even I'm a loner and I'm comfortable being one. So, I just believe in hanging out with a friend or just one or two friends once in a while at the most. Otherwise, I'm not into social groups and stuff. It takes your individuality away from you. That's what I experienced. I don't know about others. Thank you. :)
