Friends

Fat, drunk and stupid is no way to go through life
Do you have any friends? I mean take the shirt off their back for you kind of friend? I don't. I have work acquaintances. I have dudes that I go to baseball games with. But I don't have friends. Dr. Phil might might say I have intimacy issues combined with a good dose of being anti-social.
But this isn't about me. Let's talk about strippers. (see the name of this web site). Twice in the past month I've had my ATF and ATF Lite both say to me "I don't have any friends". can this be true or just SS? My ATF is 30. Two kids. All of her old stripper friends have married and moved on. She's beyond the partying stage of the 22 year olds that work at the club. I almost believe her. Her life is her kids.
ATF Lite is retired. Quit 9 months ago. But we still text and talk almost every day. She says since she quit dancing none of her old stripper friends call or come over. The man-dudes that used to hang with her when she had cash disappeared too. I believe her too.
Now I can understand how an old anti-social fuck like me doesn't have real friends. But hot 30 year olds? Hard to believe, but both are pretty convincing.

Moto-Do you have any close brother-in-laws or relatives? My dad didn't have many friends other than in-laws and family. From my experience and his, a good brother-in-law is better than a friend. I have relatives that would do anything, and I do mean ANYTHING if I asked. That sentiment is reciprocal.
As for strippers, I can see how they would not have friends from work, since they are basically in competition with each other the whole time. Then again, my top two current faves are friends (perhaps more) with each other, apparently something that goes back to before they were even dancers. Of course, that doesn't mean they can't cooperate with each other.
Strippers (and women in general) seem to have a lot of friends. All the dancers I've gotten to know have a best stripper friend at work and other old friends from grade school and high school that they keep in touch with. They're always calling and texting and commenting on Facebook with their friends.
Gawker, one of my friends cousin, who does some of the things we do with us has esophageal cancer also. He went through chemo and rad about a month ago but the cancer has spread to his lymph nodes and bones. It doesn't look good.
I lost my very best friend though a month ago when he got t-boned on his motorcycle when some idiot girl on her cell drove out of a parking lot and hit him. He was my younger brother.
In my experience it's been the opposite of jackslash when it comes to men and women having close friends. Most of the women I know do not have many friends and the ones they do don't always last long. My ex-wife has had numerous friends she thought she was close to then they just stopped taking to her. Same with an ex-gf, minimal friends that come and go. Even my current atf doesn't have many friends. I was the only one to give her a present or contact her on her birthday. My male friends i may talk to once every couple months but when we get together it's like we just saw each other yesterday.
Girls read to much into things and get emotional . Guys don't get caught up in the emotion of stuff which makes it easier.
I think a lot of people don't have close friends. We make close friends at younger ages and then tend to drift apart. From then social circles are often built around convenience.
You guys should get a couple of dogs!
