I have heard in a podcast lately that our relationship with anyone gets deteriorated after around 6 months of not interacting at all. I don't recall I have a deep honest interaction with any in my circle labeled as friends for so long, by that I mean ( the heart to heart) talk.
Yes, we barely message about plans of meeting up, traveling, whatever...
Even when we meet something feels fake, as if we are doing this for the sake of " cause we have to".
Is it okay to continue the rest of life not attaching to any, not having friends.
I am honestly too old to befriend any from scratch again, too fragile to get disappointed all over again.
I just need to know that it is doable being alone
It's certainly possible to lead a fulfilling life as an individual. Some people are more introverted or prefer solitude, and that's completely valid. However, it's important to consider the benefits of social connections as well. Friendships can provide emotional support, companionship, and shared experiences that can enhance our well-being. Remember, it's never too late to cultivate new connections or deepen existing ones if you choose to do so. The key is to prioritize quality over quantity and to seek out relationships that genuinely enrich your life. Ultimately, the choice is yours, and what matters most is finding a balance that brings you happiness and fulfillment.

I think it is doable, but not desirable, perhaps unless you have a family that can fill this gap.

Whatever the point of view at the podcast ...I just hope that you didn't get influenced just by it and started to think about your relations as fake ones. Let's look at the reality here....if you still call someone as a friend nomatter how often you meet or talk ...that's OK.....there's no general formula for friends. If you feel satisfied with this distance between you and them without any deep or emotional talking ...then you can live happily this way. But if you are doing this for being safe from getting hurt ....I think you should solve this issue first before looking at your current friends.

It is acceptable that a person continues in this life without having any friends or close relatives. But it is unhealthy, and here is my point: it is not normal for a person to be afraid of losing anyone, or he is afraid that he will be let down, that he will decide that he does not want to get close to anyone, this is not normal. The natural thing that we need to accept is that it is normal that there are people who do not complete with us, that we accept the loss. We accept that we have lost a person, and we continue our lives later and get over this, because we are all exposed to this thing.. whether we choose to do so or not.
