Not anymore.
I used to love meeting new people and making friends when I was much younger but I just don’t have the same energy now. I’m investing in my existing friendships and that’s good enough for me.

Yep this. I had to interact with 5 different people today and it took a lot out of me. 3 of them I already knew.

I like people and am a people person. I can talk to people from any background. I love meeting new people. (And I am not a super extrovert - I score right in the middle of the introversion-extraversion scale whenever I take the Meyers Briggs.)

+1. I'm not interested in keeping old friends, let alone making new ones.

No, I barely can keep the ones I have and find them annoying at times. introvert life.

I like it if they’re enthusiastic, friendly, interesting, good conversation, fun, trust worthy. I dislike mom-clique types. You gotta bring something to the table.
