Diary: Friends

"Few people would deny the indispensability of friends. But how long has it been since you've had a new friend?" These words stung me. Not only have I not made new friends in a long time, but my old friends are barely in touch with each other. The relationship with new acquaintances is of classmates, roommates, and colleagues, who cannot be considered friends. I have little in common topics with them except for the necessary study and work. I have lived without friends for a long time. The last friends I had could date back to my junior high school days. At that time, phones were not allowed in the school. However, many students were playing games like pokemon in the class. I wanted to improve my friendship by talking about games, so I borrowed a phone from a classmate and played the game in class. Then, the teacher found out. The classmate who borrowed my phone forgave me and we remained friends. But I suffered cold violence from other classmates - because they think I snitched to the teacher that they were playing with their phones. Of course not! Then I seldom played games. At that time, I would still discuss manga and pets with my friends. But then my fish, turtles, and hamsters died and I seldom read manga, and by then I was in high school and rarely contacted with those friends.
