I'm "that friend" in this meme

[–] [email protected] 27 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Me too, and it's pretty wild. I live in a small town and have had enough odd jobs/encounters while being friendly that i seemingly know everyone. It's also a bit of a positive feedback loop as well, because i know enough people that they keep introducing me to new people, who then introduce me to even more people.

I'm also this guy. I've connected some wild stories too LoL. Two girls who looked eerily alike but didn't know each other.... same Dad LoL, he bailed on the first girl when she was 6.

The other one that blows my mind is two guys who share the same kinda unique name. One id been friends with my whole life the other about 5 years. The more I got to know the new guy the more I HAD to get him together with the old friend. Turns out they're now great friends and they now get together more without me than with me LoL. Their similarities are so creepy. Same unique first name. Same middle name! Sons have the same birthday, one year apart. Before they met, they lived within walking distance of each other. There's more. It's a total glitch in the matrix.

Just treat people well and fun stuff can happen.

Same here. I'll bring my friends to a local show and I always know half the cast. I got to introduce my friend to one of her inspirations a few days ago, and she cried.

I'm a performer so we all know each other

Me too, but I don't like it. When I'm out with friends, I'm out to really enjoy my time with them and it's especially great when it's a few of us. I get really awkward and feel like kind of a douche when people come up to me to say hi and chat. Especially if they decide to join us or merge groups.

It's an issue when you have many different social groups or networks through work, hobbies, schooling, etc.

Mate, same! Town I used to live, I couldn’t walk from one end of town to the other without picking up a a dozen acquaintances on the way. Made it really difficult to spend quality time with my closest friends.

So, when we got older, me and my entire inner circle all got houses in a different town where nobody knew us! It’s blissful not having to stop to talk to people every 30 seconds.

Same. My girlfriend asks me who the fuck I even am half the time.
