When I was in my teens & early 20s I had a lot of people who I'd say were 'friends'. In reality about a handful were actual friends, the rest I just got drunk & high with. Now I barely even see that handful. Talk online a lot, go out for a nostalgic blowout every month, for peoples birthdays & new years. Beyond that, nothing. I've never needed anyone really but for some reason people seem to need me. Don't really know why, I'm a moron.

I do believe, however, that in some cases friends can be more important than your family.
