    I enjoyed the stereotype to laugh it but I feel obligated to state one thing. Relationships require maintenance, that’s it regardless of boy or girl. Sure some people might say hi back but that doesn’t mean they’re a friend.

      True. But I’ve had some great friendships grow after years of just “hi” in passing. We weren’t friends yet, but we were destined to become friends.

      Idunno I have quite a few friends where we only interact like every 4-8 months ish. But when we do we talk everyday for a month or two, then go separate ways again. Lifes busy we all know that. Not being in contact does no mean losing a friend.

      True, but I also don’t want to be friends with you if you get upset because I’m not constantly sharing my whole life story with you at all times.

      I’ve had my share of high maintenance friends, and I burn out so quick.

      But if you’re an incel and a Chad says “hi” back then yeah, it’s a big deal for those weirdos
