We all have different personalities, some personalities mesh well with some, and some just conflicts with some. As it is, we cannot expect everyone to get along well not because something bad happened, it just the personalities don't get along.
Growing up, I want to have lots and lots of friends. I had this vision in my head that it would be awesome if I have friends from all over so when I travel there, I'll know some people and have a good time. Back in the day, I even asked my mom to help me find a penpal. Then I looked for friends on Friendster, Myspace, Chat rooms, and Facebook. And boy, did I learn a lot about keeping a small circle of trusted friends.
I consider myself as approachable and easy to talk to, although I have to admit that I also have what is commonly called the "resting B face". Sometimes I am just thinking of what to cook for dinner, but I don't know why it gives me that look.
I don't care where you're from, what you do for work, or how much you net worth is. I care about your values and heart. However, if I sensed that someone is a sociopath or a narcissist, then I stay away from them. I don't care if they're family, I cannot waste my time on them. They are trouble, and unless they changed for the better, I am happy keeping my distance. No, I will not be mean or rude to them, just that I'll be keeping them at an arm's length.

I can be closed off and hard to get to know. I have to decide if that person is worth my time.

I understanded a fundamental at young age that we can't get along well with everyone,even he/she is good person,but you are not necessarily able to be good with each other.Therefore,I just have little real friend,but i am content with these friend.Our personality can be coordinated.I don't desire more real friend,get a real friend is so hard.

Relate much. I also consider myself as approachable, easy to be with. But we need to be careful because there some people who are self centered, narcissist,exploiter. They are seeking their own interests and they don't care about the needs of the others. Have you heard the term"Friends with benefits "? This is very common in our place.I don't like those kind of people.
