maybe they don't want to be hurt.and maybe they had bad relationship in the past and have "give up" on it.

it is hard to find a good friend. it could be these people are afraid to reach out in order to avoid being hurt, or could be just plain shy and wait for others to come to them. it is hard to find a real good friend, if you have one or many you are truly blessed

yes, it takes some time for friends to became good friends, but not all friends could go further to good friends, it's really lucy to have good friends who will let you feel that you are not lonely or alone, though she or he don't accompany with you always, their hearts follow you forever.

There's a difference between being nice and having social skills. You can be the sweetest person on earth and have absolutely no idea how to interact with other people.

I agree with you. Social skill is important, but if someone is really a nice person, he will make good friends who are attracted by his character, though he may don't have so many friends as others.

i don't really know. but maybe it is their own choice too. some people really don't like being with someone else. most of them are like loners who love to spend time with themselves only. they do not go well with others maybe so they prefer being alone. for me, everyone needs friends, needs someone else. i can't imagine life being alone, and without having friends or special someone. life will be very much lonely by then. and i can't bear it.

i have found that some people that have no friends i make friends with and we are fine for awhile and they they just turn weird.. they will flip out or something.. not all of the time of course but it has happened to me.. i some times have breaks between friends depending on whats going on if i move or something or my friends and i split up or just starting a new phase in my life.. some people just dont know how to interact with people well or too shy to start a convo with some one to make friends which are usually the people i friend since i tend to bring people out of their shell.. and like you said they may have been hurt or something in the past.. some people dont think that anyone would like to be friends with them so they dont try.. what ever the reason its sad

Hmm, I guess because they didn't make any effort to reach out to people around them. I agree to all the previous comments, I have some really good friends appearing nonchalent to make new friends or others' views about them, they are like living in their own world. I would say, sometimes it is because of others' judgements on him/her makes it hard for people to accept them, I mean gossips and whatsoever. This is hurtful as no one really know the real him/her.
