>that kid who talked to everyone in high school and could hold a conversation with anyone, but at the end of the day had no real "friends"
I know someone like that at uni and it's not me amazingly enough

Im a bit like that, i get along with everyone great but never really form close bonds.
I dont know how rare or common it is.

I'm that guy. I like to hold people up on pedestals. My goal has been to improve other's lives, but only recently did I come to the realization that while I know all of these people's dark secrets, nobody knows a single thing about me. Nobody knows that I take antideeps because of something from the past. Some days I wish I knew somebody like me for myself, but if that never happens, so be it. I can still live life as a normie and help others.

No one has any real friends. Friends are a made up construct we use for social status signaling.
All the norms on Facebook with over 1000 friends don't have a single real friend at all.
It's every man for himself down here, I have seen friendships end over the most petty shit, It's all fragile and built upon ego.

It's because 99% of people are cold an uncaring. I was just like you years ago, and then I realized it's all for nothing. Why should I bend over backwards to be nice to people when nobody ever does anything nice for me. I used to get cheap birthday cards for people, that sort of thing. I did small gestures that showed I cared. I never even got invited to parties. I'm not a sperg or total social misfit either, I'm just not very interesting and not 8/10 attractive.
Since people treat me like garbage anyway, I figure it doesn't matter how I act. So now I act exactly how I want to at all times. My life is much better and people treat me exactly the same even though I never do anything nice, I'm a cheap faggot bastard, I'm a huge fucking asshole, and I tell people off at random. If anything, I get invited to way more parties now.
