I Have No Friends and Family and How I See It As A Positive Thing

So these days many people have no friends and view it as a bad thing. This can lead to more negative action. How bout we see this as a more positive thing and use it as an opportunity to improve our lives.

    The most happiest moments in my life were when I was alone. It's better to be alone and at peace instead of having back stabbing friends or family members.

    Eventually, you'll get to the point that you see through back stabbers before they get too close and enjoy making them 'beg' for time which you never give them. i actually get more pleasure walking away from women than what i ever got sleeping with them. The best response i ever got was, "BUT I'M A GOOD WOMAN!" i replied, "i'll be the judge of that..." (as i walked away) BTW, consider married men to be your enemy...they have lot's of bosses to answer to and will use female tactics against a single man. They are often 'communist' in that they believe they should do less and get more just because they are a "family man"

    We are born alone and we will die alone. Being your own best friend is probably a good idea. I have a big family and a few friends but nothing beats my own company. Many of the things I enjoy doing I can do solo such as reading, meditating, painting, and playing music. I never feel alone when I'm by myself but I have felt alone around others. It's important for me to preserve my peace.

After several experiences of fake friends "inviting" me to lunch but on the day of the lunch, they had "forgotten" about it, and a bunch of fake friends who always "left their wallet at home" after they had eaten the food at the restaurant, and asked me "can you pay for me first and I will pay you back" but they never paid me back, I finally realized the fake friends had scammed me for a free lunch - I AM NOW FRIEND-FREE.

You may not enjoy socializing and seeking out people. If you are introverted, you should just accept yourself for the way you are. Be happy in your own space !

    ​@AnObservantTraveller74 High school was rough for those reasons. Some people thought something was wrong with me because I wasn't as social as them. I knew people who thought I needed to be fixed. Some even believed I thought I was too good for them. None of that was true. However I drew in people who did understand me and accepted me for who I was. Anything outside of some people's views of "normal" is unacceptable to them. It takes strength to be who you are despite others' criticisms.

    I remember since I was little, back in nursery school, I was always the one who stayed alone. It carried on into school, and on days when we had group projects, I would do them alone because no one invited me. There's something ingrained in me that says, "I don't accept less than I deserve."…Additionally when ppl people can't control you or you don't meet their expectations they simply step back much like vampires when their prey has no more blood…It's no wonder vampirism captures the fascination of most people.

Even bought himself a pickup truck, big off road tires, a Harley motorcycle, furniture his new home. I asked when he can repay the thousands I let him borrow. He got reeeeaaally mad.

It wasn't till those relationships were tested - including familial - that I realized how shallow and fake they were; now at 60 I'm left with one sibling and 2 friends. Finally at peace

    I made a very conscious choice to overnight delete social media, acquaintances, fake friends, and family. My soul felt empty with these people and an app knowing things about my personal life that I put out there, trying to gain some type of fake acceptance, was played out. I disappeared overnight and I have so much peace in my life now. My business grew, I took the time to cook better and learn a new language, and I have a few chosen quality people around me who had the same goals. There's no need for this abundance of social activity to lead a healthy and happy life, this is just another thing society tells us. I find solace in being hard to find, I have no desire to be like everyone else.

    I took a step back from friends in my 20's and never bothered with them again. Then I started to find out the truth about the character assassination they used to do on each other including me. One person who I thought was my best friend in my early 20's and was in college and working part time. I always bought lunch and helped out because I was working full time. He turned round to me one day and declared "Oh I'm buying a house." "How an earth can you buy a house?" I asked "Oh I managed to save up £40K for the deposit." Yeah he had been giving everyone the pity story and living of us and stashing his cash for a few years. Once he got the house he started lording it over everyone. I just walked away from that friendship!! No family and hardly any friends and very happy. Imagine waking up on a Saturday morning and being able to do whatever you fancy without anyone criticising, demanding or giving you a guilt trip. Also another big deal is it's my money, my house and I will do whatever i please.

    What a refreshing video to watch. I am an older person and all my life I was told to make friends. You are told there is something wrong with you if you have no friends. Even before social media, TV made you a failure if you weren't the cool person. I have learned to enjoy my own company and enjoy the silent times. Social media is not reality. You are a smart man. Most people only have a few good friends in their lives. As for family, I have none. Sometimes it is the luck of the draw. But I am okay. Your video only reaffirmed what I knew all this time. Being true to yourself is the best reward. Having tons of friends, social media, distract one from their purpose in life. Thank you for a great video. I hope others draw inspiration as I have. 🎉

    The only time I feel really painfully alone is when I travel. When I am at the airport and know no one cares. No one waits. No one messages me in general. I have no emergency contact to leave at work. Or no one to give my second apartment key to. That is why financial stress makes me sick and miserable. I have only myself to rely on. It was always like that and it will be always like that. Even my own parents never cared for me, they even were jealous of everything I had, even of me smiling. I learned how to whole heartedly laugh when I had my own apartment and was safe... Without being afraid of rage out of the blue from people I should be able to trust. Most people out there just don't develop their emotional intelligence and refuse to grow mentally. Not my problem anymore. I'm out and walk my own lonely but peaceful path.

Photography became another joy for me. I learned how to compose music. I wrote a few books. Completed me educational goals. I 'm still taking college courses. I stopped drinking in 1996. I learned that being alone, and pushed away wasn't so bad. I knew someone that didn't want to associate with me, because I didn't have a high school diploma. I got my high school diploma then one day I saw them on the street. I walked by them like I didn't know them. They never recognized me, because I had changed. I looked really good. Better than when we last spoke. I just kept walking by. I felt happy, and didn't need them as a friend. I became successful by myself without the need to be around others. It wasn't my fault. I was pushed away. I built my own world. I'm happy.

Accepting that free gift (not cheap, but freely given) and trust in Him, read the Bible to learn what pleases Him, what He hates! Time is almost up. Accept Him now before He comes to take His bride home for the wedding. After that the worst times EVER on the earth and to trust in Him then WILL cost your life. The anti Christ, a human indwelt by Satan will seek out believers and kill them. So choose Him now. The door is closing soon. I am not talking about religion, God wants relationship with you!

If you mean biologically, it's probably around your mid-20s, and you probably can't say you are "young" (biologically) once you hit 30" If you mean "peak" financially or materially, then it's probably in your 40s or 50s. If you mean "peak" in terms of your ability to attract women, it's probably about 40. If you mean "peak" in terms of your own personal happiness or contentment, I'd say it's 60+. Or at least, that's how it's been for me. As you get older, you don't have the physique and energy that you used to, but you have learned a lot, grown so much in confidence and competence, become able to set aside so much Bullshit that plagues the young, and after a lot of false starts and mistakes, you build a good life for yourself.

    We have 3 children and our middle son was always a loner. Never was invited for birthdays and had to deal with racism. When I talked about it with him, he didn't seem to care at all. Now there are some children who like him and wants to play with him, but he is just better off alone. And one time when I was painting and at the same time watching tutorials, he was watching tv and playing with his lego, drawing and sometimes in his bedroom to live in his fantasy world like pretending he's a hero, that he can fly etc. he told me "Mama. These are my happiest moments." He didn't felt pressure from me that we HAVE to do something, like my husband always wants to do things with us: games, playing music, going out for a walk. And that is a good thing of course. But I also discovered that I prefer just to be alone because deep in my heart I'm a loner too.

For a while I did fit in, but when I branched off to get healthy and get my finances in order, people don’t like that. They feel like we are arrogant when we want to make these positive changes and have to leave them behind. I made the choice to drink but it is so bad for you. I would never drink again. I don’t like the way it makes me feel. I just want to be peaceful, happy and healthy and sleep well and that’s enough for me. The Bible is real.

    One problem is that we do not understand friendship as a society any longer. We call people friends who join our Facebook page or group. A true friend requires what any other serious relationship requires: loyalty, respect, humility, love, and a desire to make each other better. It is a critical and important relationship in making a civilization. Yes, alone time is necessary and beneficial too, but friendship is a necessity personally and for society. However, we should work toward having a small circle of true friends instead of numbers of friends. Many comments here claim that there are too many back-stabbing friends or unloyal friends "these days." People have not changed. They are the same as always. The ancient philosophers provide great insight into how we should choose our friends and how it's necessary to remove yourself from anyone who is not a true friend. It is better to have one or two close friends than 1000 Facebook "friends" or hangout friends.

    So true. Society likes to push us to make friends since we're young and it's frowned upon to be lonely. The thing is society never taught us what is a friend. A friend shouldn't be just anyone you know or hang out with. It needs to be someone working towards similar goals as you or at the very least someone who can be there with you to have a genuine conversation and connection without the need to have a degenerate activity to do together (drinking, partying, playing video game, smoking, etc).
