A very few real friends... people use the word friend loosely here... more like associates...

I have acquaintances and prefer it to stay that way

2 or 3

As many as I like. Just that some of them don't always realize it.

In this day of 'ticks and hearts' i often wonder what the term 'Friends' actually means.

In terms of 'ticks and hearts ✔️❤️' i'm very well off !

But when it comes to folk who might bail me out of jail should the need ever arise i suspect be hanging around a while.

On SW?...roughly 60. IRL?...I have many aquaintances ( but refer to them as "friends") but no real friends per se (only my wife who is my best friend).

in real friends like 2...other than that none.

Don't know.

Only a few

Less than 5

All of them

Like 1.

2 to 3 that are worth being friends with. My days of shitbags for friends are long gone

I have a shit ton of “friends” but not many are super duper close.
