Friends?

On a light note – we are getting friendly in the UK.
Britons have an average of 54 friends! What? Apparently due to improved communications! I'm trying to count the number of friends I have and honestly I need help - it's way below the British average.

But I'm wondering if we are making so many friends why are still so lonely? I mean we have so many people we can talk to yet we are so isolated and vulnerable. Look at the numerous dating, graduates, xanga etc etc sites coming up daily we are all looking for company. Seeking the approval of others - how sad but real.

Maybe it is easy to appreciate people when they are far - they move too close we will find a reason to push them off.
I'm just flowing with the flow -- okay Goodnight tomorrow should be better there's a high chance i will make a new friend I'm way below the average in Britain!
