I agree wholeheartedly with everything H K had to say.

@LordLundin talking doesn't always mean friendship, but thanx either way
WildShadows
@HK wow, good one honestly. I've gotten along most with the people i've had the deepest, most uncomfortable conversations with
WildShadows
@Harmony Finder yeah I can agree with that for sure

This is just my opinion, and I realize that I’m most certainly in the minority however, I think the wrong question is being asked. It’s not “Does this person have the potential to be my friend?” It’s “Do I have the capacity to be someone’s friend?” Friendship isn’t a hobby-matching service. It’s not a playlist algorithm. It’s about character. Loyalty. Emotional steadiness. The ability to disagree without running. The ability to stay when things aren’t convenient. You don’t know what you don’t know. Sometimes the people who stretch you the most end up strengthening you the most. If you only choose people who mirror your hobbies, you’re not choosing friendship — you’re choosing comfort. Of course shared interests can help. They make the starting line easier. But they’re not the foundation. Depth is built on how you handle conflict, how you show up when it’s inconvenient, and whether you’re willing to step outside your own little world. I don’t need someone to like the same things I like. I need them to have integrity. Curiosity. Emotional resilience. And the ability to stay in the room when things get uncomfortable. Friendship isn’t about sameness. It’s about substance.
