Nostr Web Client

I have a question about friendship 🫂

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? 🤔

Pretty much, yes.

Circle of „old“ friends has reduced and changed over the last years. This was even the case before Bitcoin.

I don’t see it as something „negative“ though, since the possibilities to meet great intelligent people in the #Nostr & #Bitcoin space is 💯 worth it 🙏🏽

So with bitcoin it is even more difficult for me. I always hesitate to tell someone about it because of security concerns.

And yes, nostr really showed me, how much similar people like me are out there and what could be possible with friendships! But in a way that makes it a little more sad that i don’t have it with people locally close.

Its not negative in itself but i keep asking myself if i will regret it. Since i also heard that not putting much time in friendships is one of the top regrets of the dying

what about getting active in a Bitcoin community? It could help you getting closer to people around you, building friendships ans still meet „normal“ people ☺️😀

Yes, that is a good idea. I should definitely follow that path 🫂💜
