Superficial-friendship thread

Post Reply New Topic

Autistic people often have deep friendships, but wouldn´t it also be nice to have a relationship without a strong binding? A person you can tell about your problems at work or school and if the person wants to borrow money, you can instantly dump them? You can use the quick optional expressions below for quick maneuvering. This thread is a platform, where you can interact and make or terminate superficial friendships

I think it´s not a bad idea, sensitive people also can profit from having things, that they can take lightly for a change

Optional expressions:
request <name> ..........request a person to be a friend
approve <name> ..........approve a request
decline <name> ..........decline a request
instadump <name> ..........dump a friend
vacation <date> ..........claim that you are on vacation and are therefore not reachable

instadump made me laugh

Dude you need to turn this into an app. I would break my phone hitting the instadump on most of my "friends". LOVE IT!! !! !

Ok I´ll make a start
-request everybody in forum

No sensitivity in the thread? But thats just the point, to counter too much senstivity

Hello, there might be some misconceptions about my thread. I just want to clear things up before I engage

It is not a Facebook friendship?
I don´t really know what a fb friendship is, but it seems to be foremost a technical state. My friendship is an agreement, we make a "friendship", but at the same time the bonding is not strong, as stated. It´s like when two people meet because of their work, like a plumber and a carpenter, and they might understand each other really well, and people often have love for each other, but at the end of the day they might part permanently, that is understood. We might have sympathies, but no strong binding. Of course that could change, if mutual interest

It means that you are abusing the friend?
No, that´s not how it is meant to be

Why the agreement, it could happen naturally?
People are mostly a bit awkward and unsure about what the potential friends position might be, but with a declaration it is official and you are just doing what is expected if you engage behaviorally in a fashion like a longtime friend would.

Is it for everybody?
No, surely not, and was not meant to be. The whole structure of the introducing post was supposed to reveal what it´s about, i. e. "instadump" should be warning enough.
But i can imagine that certain people here could benefit from something like this, learning to take people less serious, maybe even for a good cause. Maybe somebody would like to an aid-worker, but the social interactions would stress them too much, and therefore they would maybe redraw or get exhausted´, not be able to make "rational" decisions. A bit of training could help
