This question is a matter of opinion. Some people think that having more friends means having more contacts. In the process of social survival, having more contacts can provide a lot of convenience for themselves. However, is the so-called "many friends" really a wide range of contacts? This is not necessarily the case.

We often find that there are many such people around us. As soon as we hear that there is a dinner, or something happens, as long as we send a WeChat, he can appear immediately. But when they are in trouble and need help, all these people disappear. This is the legendary "fair-weather friend".

if all the people around us are such friends, even if the circle of friends is wide, what's the use?

A bosom friend is enough in life. If you have three or five close friends around, you will have no regrets in this life. This is why Confucius often said that "a friendship between gentlemen is as light as water".

In today's society, with the growth of age, it is more and more difficult to meet the kind of good friends who can do anything for us, but there are many people who can do anything for us. Therefore, when making friends, you don't have to make friends at sea, but you should find someone who is really worth making friends with.

In addition, those who are relatively introverted may not choose their own circle of friends, and they may have few friends around them. I am alone every day, working alone, eating alone, shopping alone, watching movies alone, and doing everything alone. Their lives are not good? Not really.

Such a person is often worthy of deep friendship. If he recognizes you, he will definitely open his heart to you. Moreover, such people will have a lot of free time in their daily lives, which can be used to improve their professional skills, expand their knowledge fields and improve their moral cultivation. Because they have less time to socialize with friends, they can use these time in more useful places. This can help them better become the person they want to be.

To sum up, in today's society, a broad social circle can really help us survive in this society to a certain extent, expand our contacts, and achieve the goal of mutual benefit to a certain extent. But at the same time, we should also realize that such exchanges are mutually beneficial, which means that we should also be of use value to others. Only in this way can such exchanges be maintained. And once we lose the use value to others, then maybe this friendship will come to an end.

in private, we still need people who can stay with us no matter what we become, and who can always treat us sincerely. Such a friend is a true friend.
