I've only got 10 people added on it. These are people that I actually know and I'm friends with all of them and I've met all of them.?

Update:

The thing is!I would like to add more people. Most of my friends have 150 people on their Facebook and some of them have over 300. I've got aspergers and I'm not a popular person. I don't have a lot of friends. I don't socialize that much either. Sometimes I wonder how friends, have got so many of their own friends. They tell me they made friends through College and School and they've stayed friends with them ever since leaving College or School. Others say they've made friends through work.

Update 2:

Some of my other friends have said they've made friends with their neighbours and that their known on the street. I've been to college and I've never made friends at College. I didn't have many friends at School either. How does one manage to make 200+ True friends anyway. All of my friends have aspergers as well or some other kind of disability or condition. They've told me, that you have to start going out on your own and socialize on your own, then you start meeting people

Update 3:

My question is! Would I make more friends, If I went out more on my own. I know staying at home the whole week and not going out at all, won't help me, which is why I've started going to the Library. I go to the Cinema once a week now as well, however these are things I do independently. I've signed up for a course as well. How can I increase my independence and confidence

    Most people are "friends" with strangers who would not help them in a crisis.

    Try not to compete. Try not to have friends.

    Instead, try to help 1 person every day, without expectation of friendship.

    If you desire friends, you will end up alone! If you desire to help people, you will have many friends!

    Source(s): I suffer from aspergers, and had no friends until i learned this.
