Situation
Yesterday I invited everyone I knew who might or would be interested in watching Ip Man 3 with me but only a few replied. The thing is if they don't reply as soon as possible I won't have time to reserve seats for the show.
Thus, I realize that not everybody wants to be friends and even if you do something nice for someone it means shit if they do not recognize it. Like there's no common courtesy anymore. In this day and age we have many ways to reach people yet it has the opposite effect... People don't reply. Why? I don't know.
Observation
Do they want to "appear" important? Would you ignore your parents? Why would you ignore a good friend or "brother?"
Another topic is brotherhood. Like in Ip Man how a strong brotherhood circle is formed back the the days you do not see this anymore. People don't have any honor, integrity, common courtesy, or brotherhood.
They might say they do but they obviously don't.
Result
Thus, after various attempt to just make some good friends who are at least ambitious, it's a fail to treat everyone the same way. Only a few special selected friends are dependable. Who aren't self-absorbed or selfish...
Be okay with making few friends. Find the right one and keep them!
