Hello, could you please check this text, thank you in advance!
(some ideas are shamelessly stolen from Englishraven's channel, sorry)
It is better to have one or two close friends than to have a large number of casual acquaintances.
Social contacts we acquire during the lifetime is integral part of our lives. But the distance between you and the others is something you can manage yourself. Someone prefers to limit their contacts to family and close friends, other people in turn seems to strive to an uncountable amount of acquaintances being always ready for a party. That’s way I found this question quite personal and will try to answer on it at least for myself (and maybe for other introverts living in this world).
I believe it’s better to have only one or two close friends and there are at least two good reasons for that.
First of all, time is a rare luxury, so having a lot of friends compels you to divide your time carefully and always to think the schedule over since all these people more or less need attention. Otherwise you will just lose these people. The pace is hard to maintain, because there are also other things to do: work, uni, self-development and so on. A good example what comes to my mind is my younger brother who tried to keep up with all his many friends, but ended up having bad grades in school. He just couldn't reconcile the friends and school.
In addition to the time issue, I think you can only rely on close friends. Truly e friends are willing to share with you not only the joy but also the sorrow and are always ready to help you. By casual acquaintances it’s different. They can help you out of sheer politeness, but it’s not the same, more likely they just turn their back on you.
I hope you didn’t get impression that I promote the idea of being socially inept and reserved, but I am convinced that only close and deep relationship is fulfilling.0 votedAugust 17, 20160
