I can be by myself and still feel like I'm surrounded by a crowd, how? By making sure I do what I love all the days of my life, surround yourself with enjoyment and money and you don't need nobody, there's more to life than having useless friends who don't contribute jack sh!t to your life, what's having so many friends gonna do for you anyway? And why do you need many friends, so you can have people to talk to endlessly? Me wey talking dey even hard me, if you talk too much I cut you off, stop placing importance on the wrong things, enjoy the one life you have and bullsh!t every other things.

You're wrong, your quality of life can't be tied to having people you interact with, I'd rather be alone than know a thousand people I don't benefit anything from, I am very popular to some extent, but something happened in my life that made me realize your popularity is useless, I lost my mum and the number of people that really sympathized were very few, infact it was a very small fraction of the people I know and out of that small fraction how many of them sent me common 2k, none, so what's the point of knowing so many people then, I buried my mum quietly then came back and leisurely opened my phone book, I started deleting numbers, cuz na numbers I get not contacts, I delete sotey my contacts no reach 30 again, and that 30 are my family and close friends, I've been on my own ever since, I do what I like, celebrate and reward myself when I want to, earn my money, look nice, just live for yourself, no one would die with you infact two weeks everyone has moved on, have few people you care about and value detachment, it's the Sweetest feeling in the world, being lonely is a state of mind, I can be by myself and still feel like I'm surrounded by a crowd, how?

While you are right bro, I'm reminded of Epicurus, ass he said, "Of all the things which wisdom acquires to produce the blessedness of the whole life, there is none more important than friendship." I've found this to be true in my own life. When I'm going through tough times, having supportive friends and family makes all the difference. And it's not just about relying on others for happiness it's about sharing experiences, learning from each other, and growing together. Epicurus knew that true happiness and fulfillment come from living a balanced life, and that includes nurturing relationships with others.

A single stick can be easily broken, but a bundle of sticks is hard to break." Meaningful relationships provide strength and support. Alone, we're vulnerable.

Making friends..with the things I've learnt right now should be strategic and for your own selfish interest 😁 no hard feelings, if it doesn't work out, I move 😎.

You have to be really snake-like and smart too in this world to survive bro. Even Jesus approves of it 🤗

My advice to those that want to hear it: Be in good terms with everybody. Difficult but try. Infact convince everybody that you are friendly with them (actively pretend that you are really interested in everyone) then sitback and reap the reward also prepare the ground for backstabbing. I.e. be one step ahead of everyone ✌️


It's a cruel world and the less powerful you become the worse for you.

Power lies in the amount and quality of people you influence 😎

Your words echo the sentiments of Niccolò Machiavelli, who wrote that "it is necessary for a prince, who wishes to maintain himself, to learn how not to be good." In this sense, you're suggesting that, in order to navigate the complexities of human relationships and the cutthroat nature of the world, one must be willing to adopt a utilitarian approach, where the ends justify the means.

However, this raises important questions about the nature of identity, morality, and the human condition. If we're constantly pretending to be someone we're not, and prioritizing our own self-interest above all else, do we risk losing ourselves in the process? Is it possible to maintain a sense of authenticity and integrity in a world that seems to reward cunning and ruthlessness?

Hey guys, let me share something with you that hit me hard recently. I've always thought that my worth as a man was tied to my achievements, wealth, or physical appearance. But let me tell you, I've just discovered that none of those things matter if you're lonely and without friends or a social network.

I'll be honest, I used to be that guy who thought he could do everything alone. I'd spend hours playing video games, watching movies, or just browsing social media. But one day, I realized that I had no one to share my experiences with, no one to talk to, and no one to support me. It was a lonely, isolating feeling

Think about it: when was the last time you saw a woman or anyone for that matter, flocking to a guy who has no friends, no social life, and is just plain lonely? Never, right?

It's harsh, but it's the truth. People are attracted to those who have a life, who have friends, who have a sense of belonging. And if you're a man who's lonely and isolated, you're going to struggle to attract anyone.
So, what's the solution? It's time to focus on building those relationships, guys! Invest in your friendships, join social groups, attend events, and put yourself out there.

Trust me, I'm doing this myself, and it's been a game-changer. What are your thoughts, guys? Have you experienced this firsthand? Share your stories and experiences.

Honestly, people are after what benefits them and no one is selfless, so that saying no man is an island is a lie, they're thousands of selfish islands everyone looking for what will benefit only them, and the overzealous ones among them won't hesitate to remove you if you get in the way of what they want, I no do friendship, I came to this world alone and I'm leaving alone, and when I want something money can buy it for me, and the things money can't buy friends can't give me that either, make everyone dey him dey, I even value my weed dealer pass the so called friends

Sorry about the death of your mum. But sorry to ask. While you reflected on those people who never turned up or sincerely sympathized on your mum's demise, did you also take out time to ask yourself if you were helpful also to them in their own times of need.
If you have friends you turn up for, then it feels like betrayal when they fail to turn up for you in your own time.
But it will be selfish to not extend care to people and expect people to extend care to you when it is your turn.
While we clamour for good friends, we should also create time to be the good friend first.
