I'm thinking of becoming a recluse with only online and phone friends. Has anyone done this? How'd it work out?

I can get quite jealous & bitter.Being around people makes me feel worse. When I'm not around other people I feel a bit better because there's not as much to trigger those feelings. I've tried working on my life and tried things to manage or release the jealousness and bitterness but they haven't worked so it might be healthier for everyone if I didn't have irl friends.

@everyoneknows A good friend is difficult to come by. A lot of people have ulterior motives, but then there are some out there who are genuine and have a good heart. I gave up a lot of my friends when I was in my late 20s, and now I regret it.
