I can't seem to understand what I need my friends for anymore...

Companionship? It's sometimes funner to do things with others than simply alone? Funny things are funnier with someone else to laugh with? More likely to do something you don't want to do if a friend is coming along for moral support? Maybe it's not that you shouldn't have any friends, but perhaps you just need to change the ones you're hanging around??? I'm sorry...wish I could be more helpful...

As you get older you mature ad change. Maybe you see it as not wanting to hang out as often as you use to. Not keeping in contact as before. You are changing as a person and you look at your friends now as a want or a need. It's ok to feel that way. I downsized my friend list as I got older. I just keep in touch once in a blue moon. It think it's normal as you get older.

One of my favorite quotes about friendship is:

""Each friend represents a world in us, a world possibly not born until they arrive, and it is only by this meeting that a new world is born." - Anais Nin

 

I think this quote describes the best why you need friends.

Are your friends really friends? Or are they just convenient associations?

Perhaps you don't need these particular people. But having real friends is a big plus. Some of the people I thought of as my closest friends have fallen away from me. I wish I could say that I was right about them being my close friends for the time that they were but the manner in which they seem to write me off leads me to believe that we were just convenient associations all along. Sad.

There are thousand reason to way of smile dream and connectIn my Tree of Life model, where parts of the tree stand for significant aspects of life, friendships are the strong lateral roots, giving stability and nourishment, effective support, whether in calm or turbulent times.

They're just a distraction from not having a lover or an adequate lover. Notice when you think you got the right one you are immediately ready to abandon all of your friends.
