I observed people in my entourage to see what motivated them to seek a life surrounded with many friends… and what I observed was the fact that most of these people did it just because it was the accepted thing to do… and not truly getting satisfaction out of it…
So, that was enough for me… I decided to go for what works best for me and what makes me happiest… that is, having some people that I enjoy spending time with but only on a casual way…
I will never forget the line in the film Wall Street where Gordon Gekko tells Bud Foxx, “If you want a friend… get a dog.” Works just fine for me…

Can you give me some more information on this?
