Well friends is such a broad term many people have different meanings. When i say friend I mean people you kick it with after work, if you drink its people you drink with, go to bars with. Thats a friend. I don't count acquaintances as in co workers friends or people i have the occasional small talk. And i definitely don't consider online friends as friends either. With that said i have One friend and even then hes some i hang out with like every 2 months. My opinion i don't click much with him just the vibes seem slightly off when we hang out. Yeah man stuttering is a lonely disorder. But I'm trying tho I go to rock music bars these days in my local area. I met one dude there and 2 weeks ago.
