    I doubt it’s a real friendship. I define it as someone who will actually care about you. Someone who will show up at your door if you need help, or when something difficult happens to you.

    Its rare with actual friendship in the world too. People are mostly just colleagues at work.

      You can have all those things in an online relationship. People in person will also abandon you in a time of need. You are correct about friendships, they are super rare and most people are only in any kind of relationship to serve themselves. People also generally think their acquaintances are friends.

        Sure but most people are npcs… :)

        I dont mean that literally, I just mean that they just don’t have the consciousness to think about these things.

        You are right about people mostly using eachother for their needs. But that’s something we can try to rise above, if we are aware of it.
