No, I have a few really good friends, they are like family to me and that is the way I prefer it to be. i have never been one to hav alot of friends. I think having a few good friends,that are more like family, that you can rely on is better than having a ton of "friends" that will not be there when you need them the most.

i dont have a lot of friends,but i have some really close,best friends.most peoples around me considered as collegue,relative,socialist but not friend because i have no and i wont have any further relationship with them except buisness need.my best friends are from secondary school since we know each other till now we still keeping contact even not that much but we will miss each other and never out of talking topics.its good if we can meet other new friends but its difficult when we become adult and working because we have purpose to know someone or get know by someone,the feeling of being friend is absolutely different with when we were student,meet friend from heart,not with purpose.i miss the old day belong with my old friends.

I don't have a lot of real life friends. I don't have a lot of time to commit to them because I spend all my time with my husband. And I love it that way. I do have a few though and I've ever met them at work or in high school. Though the schoolmates I rarely talk to anymore because I've moved away. I do have several family members I am very close to.

Most of my friends have become online friends. They used to be friends that I saw all the time, but I live 1100 miles away from home now, do they still count? lol My best friend from kindergarten on, I still talk to online and on the phone sometimes. I'm still in touch with my two other best friends from high school, too. And probably my very best friend, besides my husband and my sister, I haven't seen in over 2 years. But I still talk to him online and on the phone. He lives in Oregon now, and I live in North Dakota. We hung out a lot when we both still lived in Missouri.
As far as friends that I actually see...just my neighbors and a couple of girls I used to work with. Well, and I guess some of the guys my husband works with. They are more his friends than mine, but I get along well with them, and they come over quite a bit.

yes, i have a lot of friends. well, basically our roads have crossed on this journey called, life.
i think a good way for someone to meet new friends would depend on where you are in life right now. if you're still a student, try joining school organizations that are about your interests and there you would meet a lot of individuals with the same interests as yours. if you're already working, it's kind of stagnant until you move to another job, but that's not really advisable.. so, maybe joining company activities would make you mingle with your officemates and those on the other side of the room, or from the other department. like summer outings and Christmas parties.
enjoy making good friends!

I have a lot of friends, most of them are former colleagues or co-workers. We became mainly friends because we spend most of our hours together. The hardship and support made us closer. A good way to meet new friends? I don't think there is a good way in meeting friends. I mean, anyone can be your friends. It doesn't mean that you met only in a bar or disco. He or she won't stay your friend forever. So it's more of the ways of the heart to meet friends. If you are open to friendship. The more friends you will have. And if you are not open to friendship, the less friend you may have.
Have a nice day Daycarepal! (^^,)

Yes I'd like to think I have a lot of friends. Almost all of them I met at school, and just a couple at work. I'm worried though that since I'll be graduating soon, I'm going to lose touch with some of my friends. The ones that I'm not very close to. That makes me sad, but it helps me to know that when I go on to college I will probably make a lot more friends.

I have a small tight knit group of GOOD friends.
I have gotten rid of the people in my life that were bad influences and that brought me down and now only have my closest friend around.
I have met alot of really great people in college that I believe will be life long friendships. Others I have known for the past 10 years or so!
My best friend and I met freshmen year of high school and are still close as can be. She says we are going to be like Laverne and Shirly when we get older!LOL!
I think you can meet good friends at church events, school, and/or work. This way you already know you'll have something in common with them:)
