There's never-ending conversations to have about friendship because friendship is complicated. It's constantly in flux. We're constantly making new friends, cutting off other friends, dreaming to have a larger friend group. Kind of wishing we could scale down the friend group. You know, like we're constantly evolving our social circle. And because of that, it's this bottomless pit of conversation.

Somebody said, how do I find the balance between asking others to make plans and expecting others to ask me? That is a great question because ideally, you don't have to strike a balance. It just sort of happens naturally. When the stars are aligned for whatever reason, this is not even a thought that crosses your mind.

You know, it's kind of a beautiful thing when a friendship is so locked in that you don't even have to play the game. And honestly, I think that's ideal. Same thing with romantic relationships. Ideally, we find somebody that we don't have to play the game with. We're not sort of being like, well, they asked me last time, so I guess I ask this time.

Ideally, we're finding somebody that allows us to be intuitive in our friendship. Like, oh, I'm going to go shopping. Maybe I should invite so-and-so. Ideally, we're finding somebody who invites us to think of them in a way that's just genuine. You know what I'm saying? Like, ideally, we don't have to play the game.

However, in the beginning of a friendship, everybody's kind of on their best behavior and, you know, you don't want to seem clingy. but you also don't want to put in no effort because then the other person will think that you don't care. So there is an element of playing the game, right?

160.068 - 174.279 John Smith

Even in the most authentic, genuine friendships and relationships where there's no games being played, a lot of times it started with some games because, I don't know, you're trying to make a good impression and So, you know, fair enough.
