Friends are Important, Even if a Little Bit

Society is a funny place. Either people are expected to live together in harmony yet there is always and I repeat, always some kind of a problem going on at least somewhere. And thus we have police and other law enforcement that the nation administration provides to better operate the society. But on a macro scale, let's just talk about it. How much social interaction does one person need? In simpler terms, do I really need friends? Or just acquaintances or are most of us better off on our own?

In today's world people are mostly divided into three subparts. They are calling themselves extroverts, introverts and ambiverts. Introvert would be the person who does not talk to most people and keeps his business to himself and an extrovert would be someone completely the opposite. A very open-minded and outspoken person and an ambivert would be somewhere in between.

Now this is entirely my opinion and there's no definitive answer to this question but what I think, we do need friends to some extent. Now in the earlier stages of life one might think. Why do we even need friends? I can do most of the things on my own. And they are not wrong to think so in our earliest stages of life while we are kids and mostly young adults. We have this adrenaline that we can do everything on our own and we don't need anyone's help. But to make life a little more meaningful, I believe we need friends. And acquaintances and there's always that possibility of your friend helping you out in a situation of need or maybe calling that favor or maybe doing that phone call which might help turn your life around. Now these situations are mostly regarded as outliers, but the possibility remains only when you make friends and get to know people. As much as many would prefer that we can live on our own our whole life, It's really hard to not let anyone into your life at all and expect a smooth sailing. There are always more opportunities around us and by getting to know more people and making friends with them, there are always more dynamic opportunities for us to explore and capitalize on. And these things are really the foundation of added success or some more recreation or simply someone to talk to.
