I don't feel the need to make time for other people. Have I evolved to a higher and less needy level than normal people or should I be concerned since I don't regret not having a bunch of people, aka friends, around me?

My man is a lot like you. He's not anti-social exactly, but he doesn't feel the need to spend large amounts of time with other people (except me, but I'm a bit more than a friend.) Sometimes we go out with a couple of people we know, but not a lot. His reasonings are because of the drama that most people like to create. He talks on the phone if someone calls him, but he rarely calls anyone except me or his kids. He talks to people at work some, when he has time, but it's not a priority for him. If he doesn't want to talk to you, he doesn't pretend to.
I wouldn't say you are less needy, just less social. As long as you don't feel lonely and are content with yourself, I don't see the need to go out and find friends.
It's the "make time for other people" statement that concernes me. Do you really feel it is an effort to speak to or be with these people? Then they aren't your friends. Friends are people you WANT to be around. People who don't bug you and "get" you and your sense of humor (or lack of humor.)
Just try to avoid being annoyed by everyone and realize that not everyone feels the way you do about "making time for people." Some people may like you and want to stop and talk to you from time to time. Being rude to them because they are reaching out to you is just mean and uncalled for.

friends are important to everyone, or it should be...
if ur questions is u dont like to make new friends cuz the friends you have all u need, then that is perfectly fine....
if u have no friends at all and have no drive to make friends, hopefully family plays a large part of your life...
just know that all humans are social beings at heart..

no, you have not "evolved" to any level. you're just a sad, sad person. you should be concerned that you think others are so below you that they can't be your friend. you're weird, very weird, and you should be very very concerned. try to be a better person, or you're going to be very lonely in the future. you'll die very alone.

everyones differnt, if you prefer to hang solo then go 4 it. there are sum ppl who always NEED friends around them to feel secure, and there are people who jus like having friends to hang out with. But there are lots of people like you who just like alone time, and its perfectly fine :)

well. first thnk to yourself. why dont you want any friends. do you not trust them, or is it that you could careless. maybe you just want everything to be about you. or do you not want to share your life with friends around. i mean i love my friends. i really dont know what i would do without them, i mean yea they can be annoying sometimes, but other times, most of the time, its great having them around.

No it's not abnormal, I don't think you have evolved. Perhaps you like being alone, maybe you are at your best when you are.

I can relate to that.
But you should have at least one or two friends. You don't necessarily need a lot.

I feel similar to what you are feeling. It never hurts to have some acquaintances....someday you will need help, and you wont have anyone to turn to if you have no friends....
