Maybe so, but not necessarily true a priori.
- titanomachy 3y agoStatistically speaking it’s probably true. The fact that you’re friends with them is evidence that they have friends. See “friendship paradox”: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Friendship_paradox https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Friendship_paradox

- lazide 3y agoNot really. The folks no one knows are the most successfully ‘non-social’, by definition no? And by definition, the ones with fewer friends also are known by fewer people.
- BurningFrog 3y agoSome people don't have a single friend. None of them are in your friend group.
