America's “Friendscape” Crisis

>do these people respect me at all?; do these people care about my inner life at all?; do these people share a desire for growth beyond that of our local maximums?; do these people have any ambition at all?

That's a nice list of traits for a friend to have, but since a person will literally go insane if they don't have any human contact, I would advise finding better friends first before dumping the bad ones.

All of these relationships except for two have all dried up and withered long before, it is only with quarantine could I understand why.

Also the list was me being too literary in describing the majority of these relationships, they answered the questions posed in the negative through and through, read: unhealthy relationships.
