I have a question about friendship đź«‚

Since i think #nostr is a place where a lot of intelligent people are right now, i think it’s the perfect place to ask this.

I have often heard about a phenomenon that intelligent people seem to have less friends or less social interaction. That is also what i can observe in my own life. I don’t want to say that i am more intelligent than other people, but i find that the things i want to talk about often do not resonate with others or they treat it much more on the surface than i do. So i really struggle to make deep connections. Most if not all of my few friendships are very superficial.

So my question is, do you experience similar things? 🤔

Yes i do, i spemd about 90% of my free time alone. Im the tech person everyone calls to troubleshoot or to fox a digital problem. The conversations i have often lead to a “you think too much” or “why dont you put your feet on the ground more and get off the computer.” Which idk what to say when my background is in the tech world. Even when i was in university most of my professors would engage on me to answer first to spark the debates or to gwt more involved. Its weird and i hated it but how life goes i guess. Critical thinkers or philosophers are spread thin on earth.

I resonate with this a lot. Tend to engage myself with exciting stuff on the internet rather than go out and mert ppl. Sometimes i think it’s just an easy way out. But when i go out and meet ppl i don’t think it was „worth“ it often. Sounds sad when i read this …
