[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Umar Haque writes that friendship is a liability in a disintegrating society.  Friends have needs. [b]No one has the time to invest in other people.  [/b]The US is an every man for himself society.  DC is even worse in this respect.  Why do you think Truman advised getting a dog if you wanted a friend in DC.  [/quote]

Some of us make the time. Same as how people make time to work out. Or cook food from scratch. Or walk their dogs. Etc.

Friendships take work, so if you aren't willing to put in the time then you probably shouldn't expect to reap the results. I get up at 5:30 am so I can walk and talk to my best friend, who is a school teacher who lives about 4 hours away from me because that's the only time we can both commit to given our work schedules, family commitments, etc. Don't invest time in other people if you don't want to, but don't say that no one does. I have plenty of friends who do. [/quote]

This doesn't help the OP and the others who do want to invest time, but aren't finding like-minded friends.  Congrats to you.  What you have is rare around here.[/quote]
