It is normal that your father and you have different views on making friends. Your father has experienced social beatings and knows what kind of people can help him when he is in trouble and what kind of people can be his friends. It is impossible for him to wait until he meets difficulties before his friends reappear. He is also identifying which future friends are useful to him in the process of making friends. This is the egoism of adult society. Obviously, you are still in the simple stage. I think the way you make friends is right. Even if you talk nonsense among your friends, I'm willing to listen. Even if you do something ridiculous, I am willing to accompany you. In fact, I don't say anything, and I know your mind. Even if such a friend can't help you at the geometric moment of your career or be like your father's friend, at least you are happy when you associate with him. The pleasure brought by this pure friendship can't be bought by money. Although I appreciate and agree with your attitude towards friends, I have to say that in the future, like your father, after experiencing some social problems, you may know that your time is precious and your energy is precious, and you may use your precious time and energy to make friends that are useful to you. Well, what can I say? Maybe the definition of friend is different.
