Do you wish there were more friends in the circle? Or that you had different friends?
 
Honestly my "circle" of friends is more like a triangle.

Granted I only hang out with two people, I meet others, hold up conversations and stuff like that when I go out.

But yeah, I'm fine with it. They're the only people that "get" me.
 
I guess I'm okay with my circle of friends, though sometimes I get annoyed by how much most of them drink and smoke. The boy/girl ratio is a little off, I think.

I have a pretty large group of friends, but only a few I'm especially close to.
 
I really only have one friend that I consider myself close to. Everyone else is an acquaintance.
 
I love my friends, I just wish that everyone lived closer. As a result, I don't get to see my friends as often as I'd like. Getting together takes planning.
 
I like my group of friends but there's some I wish I could see more. I wouldn't mind it if the guy/girl ratio evened out more. My work is 90 percent female and I hang out with a lot of people I work with so some more guy pals would be fun
 
It's nice to have lots of friends, but I think that when it comes right down to it, one really good friend is all you need. I like my one best friend. My others aren't as close to me.
 
Right now, I dont really have anyone close. Thats also because Im sick of high school people and just cant wait to meet people in college. Also, no one I hang out with really shares my same interests...
 
I don't really have a stable circle of friends. I make new ones every year and throw away the old the ones. It's not a good habit, but hey...I'm picky.
 
I dont know really, sometimes I wish we could hangout more but everyone's got jobs and things now. I guess it would be nice if you could get together more.
 
This is been something I've been thinking about for awhile.

Am I satisified? Not exactly. I only have one friend that I completely trust not to stab me in the back. None of my friends really have the same interests as me. I very much prefer my "alone" time alot.

I hang out and meet alot of people. Am I popular person?...not a chance in hell. These people actually call me up alot and treat me as a good friend. I may see them on a regular basis but I never really trust anyone ever really well never have. I hold back info from people all the time and say different things just to test them and see where they stand. Or there reaction to what I do/might do.

Sadly I see myself using them more and more for my own personal social experiment at times.
 
People who are "satisfied" with their circle of friends, as in they don't feel like they need more, tend to form cliques and shut out other people. I prefer to be more open and like making new friends. I am satisfied in that I like the friends I have, but I'm not satasfied as in I feel like I don't need new friends.

My current circle of friends is mostly my classmates, because we all get along very well and talk openly with each other. I don't really have one person specifically ATM whom I confide everything in, though.
 
Getting new friends is always good thing cause you can lose contact with people and stuff...
 
I don't think i could get all my close friends to stand in the same circle . They all have different personalities. I could get mini-circles going though if there is a bar or party.
 
I have lots of friends but I only have a few good friends. It's all good over here.

I'm extremely happy with my circle of friends. The problem is that sooner or later I'll have to leave them to pursue my career. I haven't run with this particular group for very long, so in some ways leaving will hurt less, and in some ways more.
 
Well, I don't have a circle persay.. I just have a few friends that I enjoy spending time with when we get together. We all know better than to be super close all the time. Life happens on life's terms, and sometimes we have no power over it.
 
I'm very happy with my circle of friends, except everyone who hangs out with us compares us to the Always Sunny cast. Apparently we have a tendency to bicker about the most random of topics.
 
:o I am anti-social so I just slowly drift apart from what friends I do have.

Its happens to people.


I think thats me occasionally. Recently completely abandoning some people that used to be considered "friends" has made my life more bearable and less stress inducing. So in that case I'm fine with delibrately alienating people.

we live the same lives, cause I'm doing the same thing right now.
lately, my happiness - RKFOMH from SM2

Its sometimes good to alienate/abandon. It gives you a sense of control over certain aspects of the life were living.

I have a triangle of friends too. I use to have a small circle but was kicked out because of a petty argument. No big loss there. The weekends were getting repetitive and directionless.

Sometimes with a big circle of friends people take each other for granted. With a triangle, each person is valued much more.
 
I do wish that I had some more friends in my circle, but as far as the friends I do have, the friends that are in my circle are amazing. I couldn't ask for better friends than what I have.

The reason why I want more in my circle of friends is because none of my friends currently live where I live, so I never get to see them or hang out with them.
