Why Self-Awareness Leads to Fewer Friends

Let’s examine why self awareness leads to fewer friends and connections. Are you someone who constantly reflects on your feelings and behaviors? Do you feel like being self aware is kind of ruining your social life? If you’re nodding along, then this video is for you! While self awareness is a crucial skill for personal growth, it can also lead to unintended consequences when it comes to relationships and friendships. But don’t fret. It’s not all gloom and doom.

While your journey into self awareness might pare down your friend list, look at the bright side. The friendships that endure, or the new ones that form, are likely to be the real deal. They're based on mutual understanding, respect, and shared growth.

Yes, you might have fewer friends, but the connections you maintain will be richer, deeper, and more aligned with who you truly are. In the end, isn't that what really counts?

I love my solitude and the few real people I have.

[vladquebec]

I have worked hard on myself and now, I have a mostly alone, solitary life and am happier this way.

[symbiat]

My closest friends I can count on one hand. You get older, you tend to weed out toxic crap, BS, and you value quality.

[dextert]

I thought I used to have friends...found out I really didn't. Solitary me.

[marcp.]

Peace of mind before everything else. It's very important, to keep your mental and emotional health.

[TheSaneHatter]

“Smaller social circle, ” indeed: those of us growing up with undiagnosed problems, and thus FORCED into self-exploration early on, never develop many friendships to begin with.

[JOEYDEEZ]

Self awareness may well lead to fewer friendships but it’s a mostly brilliant weapon for one to use against the narcs and the shady salty manipulative sorts and so I’ll take the fewer or zero friends over having to deal with either of those two things…

Thank you !!

Adios ;)’

[owenmcgheeandbdawg]

I love my small circle. They seem to have been waiting for my self awareness. ❤

[JoanCornico-wl]

Knowing real people led me to no close friends.

[vahjayjayaddict]

Its always great to see an old friend. Its like no time has passed since you lst saw them & they are still your friend. I saw 2 friends on the same day i had not seen in 11 years.

[carolbrownleehalbert]

I couldn't care less ... The MASS AMOUNT of friends I once had have either moved away or are DEADED.

[camilleluna]

If everybody is your friend you have a problem, having more friends is not a miracle, having one loyal friend is enough than having fake friends❤

Who are you! my God you have articulated my situation in this video. Allot of confusion and stress of lossing my old friends and family members due to my changing paradigm and priorities is settled now and I feel at peace..

[jeromej]

This is exactly me.
For me the hardest part is over thinking and over analyzing, especially in the working environment, and I was constantly thinking if other people find me weird or whatnot, because I just want peace and not really interracting that much to avoid any potential toxicity in the long run

[sreach]

My self awareness has resulted in the people who l did the most for, to disappear. I'm ok with that because l realise even Ticks have to find a new host.

[nicholasschroeder]

Self-awareness is concommitant with increasing awareness about others: you lose their bs with yours.

[francesbernard]

If someone indicates in any way they do not like me I am not going to pay any attention to them after that unless my career requires it. Why should I? My time is too valuable to waste.

[chaunceychappelle]

Self-awareness, social/emotional intelligence and understanding how your privacy is being violated/manipulated are the building blocks for emerging social paradigms.

[Myskeeter]

I believe that as you work through life, mature, learn things from outside of your core family, you start to bloom. As life proceeds, you learn that you don't need the company or the approval of others. Your circle may decrease, but will be more valuable and deeep. You also know how to enjoy your own company.
