I know your way of thinking is quite popular here, but I will take my chances anyway. If your friend says that seriously, then friendship is not what you guys have, at least in the traditional sense, I see my friends often, I enjoy seeing them and having conversations, playing, etc... Saying people who are fine talking to other human beings face to face, are craving attention is ridiculous, that's how we have been doing things since the beginning. Also, no one is forced to be together, you can always find a remote gig, or do freelance work or another career altogether. Lots of people love to go to an office an interact with another human beings, you don't need to be extroverted. I do respect your perspective, and I think is totally fine, but trying to associate social people with some sort of masochism is ridiculous. I know , nowadays, being a regular social human , is not as cool as being introverted , or "in the spectrum" (in the spectrum myself), instead of lashing on other people, maybe you can get yourself a more comfy setup and a gig that allows you to not talk to others, and just code your way to the moon.
- Taylor_OD 5y agoI think it's equally ridiculous to say that because someone's friendship is not like your, in person face to face interaction, friendship then its not real.

- masterof0 5y agoI didn't say it wasn't real, I said, that in the traditional sense, friends like to meet? you know, be friends? But nice try.
- lsaferite 5y ago> then friendship is not what you guys have That sounds a lot like you are claiming their friendship isn't real to me.
- Taylor_OD 5y agoYup...
- atoav 5y agoFriendship isn't about meeting someone. Friendship is about having trust and a connection. Who is the friendier friend: Someone whom you like and meet every day, but who will ghost you once you move a city over or someone whom you like and with whom you feel at home even after two years of not seeing each other? I would take the latter over the former every day. My best friends are in that category, wven some who live in the same town
