do you judge others based on how many friends they keep? (in real life that is)

I don't. I honestly don't know how many friends my friends have.

for me, it is a sticker of sanity, and it attracts your more to other people. at the same time it can make you busy and not graving in a corner talking with no one. Having a lot of friends is an affirmation for your good personality. with that, people will tend to make friends with you because of that cool personality that your showing... that they think your interesting person because of the no. of friends that you have...

I never judged people, but to have an impression with them on the way who really they are... it comes along with on how they deal with me especially on how they deal with people not close to their heart. Because by simply observing the way they treat others would reflect their true attitudes.

I definitely don't think that I judge people based on how many friends they have. The reason being that I have never had that many friends myself, not because I'm a bad person, but just because I tend to be scared to approach people because I don't think they will like me. Usually I make friends easier when someone talks to me first, then I am able to open up very easily. I guess it just comes easier to some people, and I also think that we learn from a very young age what we are worth (or rather what other people think we are worth), so I think that if we are very well liked as a kid we will always be that way, because we feel like we are worthy. Then there is the other side, where we are told me aren't worthy of friendship. So really I think, sure, some people may have few friends because they are a bad person or whatever, but in other cases I feel like it's because people can't look past the outside to see the person inside. At least that's how I've always felt.

Hi There, I certainly do not judge people on this. If people judged me according to this criteria I would not look too good! Most of my friends are online friends. I just get so busy with things I do not have a lot of time to keep close freinds and maintain those relationships. It is just the way it is for me and I hope nobody judges me because of it. cheers,

many having many friends is great and fun, but they say while you grow up and older you loose some of this friends down to only three friends left for you and thats minimum..those who remain will be your very true friend till the end..thats what i think

No, why do we need many friends who are not really true and good? So, I don't judge others based on how many friends they keep.

Its not really quantity but quality of friendship. One can have many of friends but as the saying goes "When the going gets tough, who goes with you?" At times you don't really know who your real friends are until you are in trouble. That's the only time you will really know if your friends are there in good time and in bad or just in good times. Thus, I am not a person who judges a person base on the number of friends one had. I am a first impression kind of person, kind judgmental but not really. I seldom made an error on my first impression. But I will always follow philosophy of "first impression last until proven otherwise"

They say you found out who you are by type of company you keep... Not to say how many, but rather what type of people you let in to your life...

Friends or aquaintances? Outgoing people may have Depends on what you see. Few friends or friends of quality, just not many of them. Observe, don't jump to conclusions.

I beg to differ...it's a matter of quality or quantity. I don't have a lot of friends, mainly because I am selective. I have a small group of friends with whom I hang around; we may or may not have similar interests or likes. We'd meet up frequently and have teas or meals together. We are always around for each other, whenever anyone needs a hand, or a shoulder.

Having or being with many friends does not mean you are cool. I am sorry do disagree but it does not follow. If you are surrounded by friends that are a bad influence then you are not cool at all. But you are right to say that it will be hard for others to get to be your friends because they have to gain your groups acceptance before they can even talk to you. What I can say is "Tell me who your friends are and I will tell you who you are". Stay Cool :)

For me it doesn't truly matters whether a person has a single friend or hundred. But what matters for me is how good the friends are. It is good to have a single good friend than having a dozen time pass friends.

i think its important before choosing a friend...if someone doesnt have friends that means he has a problem,thats y people are avoiding him...n if someone got lots of friends,that means he's loveable,cool n you can enjoy life with him..

I think it depends on how you label "friends". In my opinion, if you have one true friend, you are very rich. Acquaintances come and go. But a true friend is priceless.

I think it's silly to have a lot of friends. It's best to have a few solid friends that you can trust to the ends of the earth, and a decent amount of "acquaintences" so to speak that may be your friend, but not like a solid you know them super well friend. So yeah, you could say I do kind of judge people on the amount of friends they have. I find it silly to have a whole lot of friends when more then half the time unless you have partys 24/7 you aren't going to see them.

One may have lot of friends or only a few (in real life) which don't count. What is important is how many good friends one is having. It is better to have a couple of good friends than having good number of friends with no contacts.

I don't and I certainly hope others don't either. I have a LOT of friends but it is not readily apparent because they all live far away right now and my only real contact with them is online. People who meet me wouldn't know this because they aren't right here around me. I make decisions based on who someone is, not how many people they are friends with.

I've never judged anyone based on how many friends they have although I have judged people based on the type of friends they have, which is wrong because you never get to know the person. I dont have a lot of friends, just a few real close friends. Idf anyone judges me, thats fine, they will never get to know me. Cheers, Tianna

It's safer to be in a big pack. I think that it's work of our basic instincts. We won't to be in big groups of people and we don't want to be alone. We think that if someone have many friends he must be successful and a good person if so much people likes him/her. It's something like starting information. Although if someone have many friends then he/she often don't have time for all of them. Cheers and happy myloting.
