Q. How are friendships actually made?

A. Read a book about it.

Q.

How can I differentiate an acquaintance from a friend?​


A. You have invited each other over to each other's residential dwelling for social reasons.

A. You have exchanged gifts. (Not immediately usually)

A. Will call you on the phone and invite you somewhere and you do the same or he calls and invites you multiple times.

If even one of these are true, then you are friends

Just be lucky theory aka right moment and place, right genes(face that attracts people face>>>personality>status), environment(family, living surrounds and such) whatever

Okay, but that didn't answer my main question (which is, how do I differentiate between a friend and an acquaintance?). Besides that, why would you assume I'm a physically deformed person in real life? I've seen ugly people hanging out with friends (I assume they're friends based on their open interactions) out there.

Well, yeah, I've had friends before but it mostly felt one sided in certain instances because I don't know how to navigate myself through social relationships.

I think you can be deformed and give a extrovert aura like those fake smiles normies love so much but if you are what females call creepy or like that virgin vs chad virgin's aura it is much harder to find friends you can try to fake it but I swear if you are anxious I think normies can smell it even gym guy poked me at back and told me start acting more confident but when I try to act that way I make unnatural moves or drop things and just being stared at by normies can make shake as pathetic as it is.

A friend is someone whos facets and being you can wholly understand and agree with
I don't know, that feels like a pretty impossible standard to me. If you have to 'wholly understand' and agree with every single facet of someone to call them a friend, you aren't really looking for a person—you're looking for a mirror.

The jump from acquaintance to friend usually happens when you move past the 'polite' stage. An acquaintance is someone you keep things 'smooth' with, you talk about the weather, work, or hobbies, but you never really show them the messy parts of your life. It’s low-stakes. If you stopped seeing them tomorrow, your life wouldn't change much. A friend is someone you've built 'skin in the game' with.

If an acquaintance cancels, you’re relieved you get a night off. If a friend cancels, you’re actually bummed because you wanted their company.
A friend is someone you can call when your life is falling apart and you don't feel like you have to apologize for 'bothering' them.
You don't have to agree on everything. A real friend can think you're being an idiot about something and tell you to your face, but they’ll still help you fix the mess afterward.

Because it requires going deep into the unconscious mind and examining the beliefs that are conditioning this kind of behaviour. This is something that must occur at the visceral level, visceral levels of "I don't give a fo anymore".

My psychological work to heal trauma has been:

Intense psychoanalytical deconstruction of beliefs. Intense emotional connection using music. Loving kindness meditation.

This alone will make you less neurotic without the need of putting a lot of drugs into your system.

I think if there was rent a friend I would use it as long as weirdo compatible friends were available, this is why we need nationalism or etnic tribe mindset again for male connections that don't involve torture each other over impressing a hole

people don't reveal their whole selves to each other, initially its required that you think you understand enough about them or else the layer of seperation will keep you apart
