Was listening to the radio earlier, (pop master), gets to the end were the guy gets to do some shout outs to friends and family, and he said he didn't have anyone  , So got me thinking maybe there's fabbers hanging around the forums wanting to make friends, So if you're out there, come say, Hi, Hello or even Howdy   |

I don't have any friends. Not close friends at least. Not a gang of friends, not a best friend. Haven't for a long time and I'm fine with that.
I have people I'd hang around with, and have a laugh with but not on a regular basis. And not people I'd share certain things with. |

"Aww that’s very sad lovely post OP  I’m always here to waffle if someone wants a chat x
Hello busty, from a fellow countryman...
Hello lovely to meet you  "
I was much more of a lurker until recently, kind of easing my way in slowly. Plenty of mates in the real world but only 1 or 2 here that I chat with regularly. It's always nice making the acquaintance of new people though. You've a lovely profile and a wicked smile.... |

I'm with you there. Always been comfortable in my own company and generally people make me their friend rather than I make friends. |

Yes it's exactly like that. I'm not against having friends in that I push away or actively avoid them or anything like that. It is just how it plays out. |

I miss having a group of really close friends.
Got a couple of guys that I drink with, but I don't feel 'that' close to them.
It's been nice chatting with people on here though, and I have definitely made one good friend, so things are picking up |

It took a while to join in but I'm glad I did, have had a few good laughs in here so far, ironically having a great wind up with a guy from Dublin, even though I don't go near the Ireland forum! |

I heard this too, i did feel sad for him 
Over lockdown ive reduced my circle, ive distanced myself from hanger on's that seem to 'use me' for whatever reason.
It really is quality over quantity. |

Joining Fab as I did not long before Lockdown 1, I've been spectacularly unlucky in terms of both opportunities to meet folk and form Fab friendships. Now if anyone looks at my profile, because I have been on here for over a year now, they'd understandably think I'm either a weirdo or a fake. Ho hum  |

Yes lockdown has really made me think about friendships and what value they actually have when times are tough... |

I think you'll be OK. We've all been in the same situation.
Tbh - they'd probably think you a weirdo if you had met new people during 'covid'.
Good luck. |

Nah, don’t have any friends. I’ve had work colleagues. Might try and work on that when everything opens back up. I’m into fitness and gaming. Not really fussed at the moment though. |

In the same situation - I signed up to Fab in 2019 but then just let the account languish before finding the forums last year. But I'm in no rush at the moment and would rather take my time. |

Nikki Lauda once said in an interview ' I have no friends, people get really upset about this,but it's true. They only want you for this and that when you are known and to be honest I couldn't honestly tell you who is a 24/7 guy I could talk to if I needed someone, so I have no friends'

I listen to pop master every day in the van and I'd struggle to fill the 30sec afterwards giving a shout out , I've got mates at work, but only acquaintances and family out of work like my bro and both my daughter's partners and I'm happy with that, it means I get to do my own thing and not worry about organising when we can meet up |

Friends and family always come and go i find, my close friends have all moved to different parts of the uk to start a family and some cases there own business on top, my kids have grown up with one in uni and the other starting this sept, i try and fill the time with hobbies and just finished my 1st year in uni, so this last year i have tried to get to know new ppl and learnt to say no to those including family only call me as they want something. Always happy to chat and make new friends and i see this time in my life to try new things and maybe do a bit of traveling as well |

I am of an age where my circle of friends gets smaller every year, I received a call only yesterday telling me that a good friend of mine in the States had passed away at the age of 79 he had been planning to make one final visit to see me later in the year.
Trouble is at my age and being on my own friends tend to start fussing over me, when they visit they start tidying the house, asking if I need any shopping doing, asking if I am eating properly and so on.
I have very few friends on Fab however, but that seems to have increased a little over the past few months. |

Same for me, I always floated around friends groups when I was younger, and most of my 'friends' as I've got older have mostly been more colleagues as I moved away from my hometown, I don't have that one person even I could go to if I needed them |

I’m pretty much a loner, I have two friends who I see sporadically, and that’s ok with me. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with that - some folk just aren’t sociable. I’m pretty lame at keeping in touch. I get overwhelmed by long messages. I chat to certain folk on here sporadically and that is fine with me. Friends (kind of) but with distance. Perfect. |

I think this is me, probably. I'm use to it or prefer it, not sure which. |

You know, I had some feedback from someone recently that I don't have any friends because I'm not very likeable. It's one of those things you want to shrug off, but kinda hits true as I don't have many friends. I'd like to have more, I try to be nice, but there's just something about me that puts others off.
I'm hoping that's changing as I've met some amazing people on these forums recently, but hoping to continue to talk to more.
Stay brilliant, everyone. |

Hey.... not everyone can be liked by everyone! Everyone has a niche market! . You're a perfect friend for someone! Life isnt a popularity contest.... jump in my inbox anytime.
I'm just a loveable weirdo....if you like that niche market! Lol Xxxx |

Hah, loveable weirdo was always the niche I was going for! Have you cornered the market or is the room for one more?
And a lovely offer to inbox you but I'm outside what you're looking for so cannot! But would love to chat, if you'd like. X |

I've never had many friends growing up and I would say the last 10 years I've had 1 or 2 I would love to have more friends but I've had so many of previous friendships end due to being let down etc so makes me paranoid about making friends even my colleagues at work have stopped asking me to go out on nights out cause I always say no |

Can family members be friends?
If not,then I have no friends,no one I know will have my back 24/7 other than my brother and parents.
Yes I have many many acquaintances, people I know,socialise with,but my only true friends are my family |

This will sound sad but I don't have any friends. I'm friendly with the people I work with, but they're all women so not really mates.
Others have drifted away over the years.
Others I would class as acquaintances, but nobody anywhere near close.
I have a small group of online friends , all women and all far away.
It can feel lonely despite being married with kids. |

I don't know how to make friends, though I am very friendly to everyone. I just have colleagues that I have shared experiences with, but I don't know if I would contact them outside of work. I am probably the very definition of a Wall Flower... |

I know a lot of people through work etc but not many i would call true friends, probably just me and the way i am these days.
After a bad experience with my last partner i've learnt not to trust a lot people so spend most of my time on my own, mind you i used to spend most of my working life on my own anyway so nothing new there |
