would you pay for a friend?

Yeah dude, because of the original post here, I almost didn't post, because I meet the logical clause stated. But I have to say something.

If by some strange coincidence you find someone that would such a thing for you... wouldn't that seem a bit odd? Like they're I dunno using you for money...or scamming you? It leads down a dangerous road in the long term. Are you going to be trusting, honest, or open with this person like you would with a REAL friend? And if so, there is an EXTREMELY HIGH chance this person will end up stealing from you and\or harming you in the end, mentally or physically.

You end up paying for friendship, one way or another.

Most (NT) people don't form friendships unless they see something in it for themselves. I've had sociopaths cultivate me, that cost me quite a lot. I guess I probably learned a lot about social life thru them though. In the end it's abusive though or exploitative to have to 'pay' for social acceptance and you get tired of it, it's humiliating.

I pay for friendship by giving myself in return. Thats why when someone gives me friendship, if they are not living up to their side of the bargain, I abandon them.

never pay for friendship. They're are many great people you can meet today.

My reccomondations are coffee shops and places that have older adults if your are older and if you are young my best advice is to find people who like what you like.

If all else fails you can always develop a split personality and hope the new guy isn't a jerk.
